New At-Home TENS Device for Drug-Free Pain Relief
Today’s conversation on Drug Free Pain Relief: Omron Heat Pain Pro TENS Unit was sponsored by Omron.
Walt’s Story
As many of you know, my husband, Walt is 6′ 6″ tall. He still loves to play basketball even at 57! However, his knee and back don’t always like him to play basketball. In fact, his knee causes him a lot of irritating pain. He constantly works on his knee to keep it in basketball shape.
One thing he tried recently that really helped him was the Omron Heat Pain Pro TENS Unit. Walt hates to take any kind of medicine, so the idea of an over-the-counter drug-free solution to help with his knee was appealing to him on many levels.
What is the Omron Heat Pain Pro TENS Unit?
TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) has been used by doctors and physical therapists for years, and now products are becoming available for use at home – for pain relief whenever you need it.
Omron Healthcare, a leader in at-home medical devices, has recently introduced Omron Heat Pain Pro TENS unit, which combines TENS and soothing heat to help alleviate chronic pain and aching muscles.
Through alternating periods of TENS and Heat, or TENS alone, 6 pre-set body pain modes, 3 massage modes and 20 intensity levels that can be used on multiple pains throughout the body, the Heat Pain Pro TENS Unit helps users get better control and relief of their pain.
Why Walt likes the Omron Heat Pain Pro
The Heat Pain Pro TENS unit is about as big as a remote control. Walt typically uses the unit while watching TV or playing a game on his phone. He uses just the TENS unit setting for low level pain. But he really loves that after a strenuous work out, that the Omron TENS unit has HEAT that he can alternate with the TENS to really address a higher level of pain.
Walt likes how the unit reduces his pain and helps him to get on with his day. He notes that the settings are easy for even the most technically challenged to use. He also says that you have to play with the unit’s setting to find the right combo of heat and pulsing that works for your individual pain.
Walt likes how portable the Omron Heat Pain Pro TENS unit is and the fact that it comes with a rechargeable battery so he doesn’t have to feel “plugged” in while using it.

I have used a home tens unit before but never one with heat. I think that would be an amazing combination. I love this invention and even better that we can purchase for home use.

LOL Richard.
Alice F says
I had surgery last year and still feel achy in the surgery site area. Maybe the Omron would give me some pain relief without taking medication.
Sarah L says
If my knee pain gets worse I will think about one of these.

I recently used it on my back. What a God-send. It’s a valuable tool.
