When the body is injured, pain signals are delivered to the brain through the nervous system. That tells your body that you’re hurting. Primera sends tiny pulses over the skin through the nerves to the spinal chord and brain (gate control mechanism). Along the transmission there are many areas referred to as “gates”. The gates determine which pulses can continue to the brain. The gates regulate how quickly the information is delivered to the brain. Since the same nerve cannot carry a pain and a non-pain impulse at the same time, the stronger, non-pain impulse from the Primera device “controls the gate”, relieving pain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWHAT’S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrimera Unit Carrying Case 9-Volt Battery Leadwires (2) Electrodes (2 packages of 4 electrodes) Electrode Positioner Belt for the back User Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWHAT IS TENS?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is used to ease pain (acute or chronic). Through a TENS device, tiny electronic pulses are delivered through the surface of the skin and along the nerve strands. Think of TENS as a pain blocker. The stimulating pulses prevent signals of pain to be delivered to the brain. TENS machines also help the body produce high levels of endorphins, which are the body’s natural pain fighting mechanism\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWHAT IS NMES?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) is a non-invasive, non-addictive means of muscle rehabilitation after injury, surgery or disease. Electrodes are placed on the skin over selected muscle groups. Through electrical stimulation, the muscles contract, reducing pains associated with orthopedic and neurological diagnoses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHOW TO USE THE PRIMERA TENS\/NMES DEVICE\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease read your device user’s manual before use.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
