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 a Tens unit which was used to help my husband. It worked for a while, but then his condition deteriorated and it wasn’t enough.
I was looking at this a few days ago. My Dr wrote me a prescription for a tens unit so that I won’t have to pay for it. Unfortunately insurance doesn’t pay for this particular one and none of the professional tens units have the heat option…but….they are stronger so I guess it’s a give and take kind of thing lol. Looks like I’ll get the stronger tens unit and just use my heating pad with it lol.
I think that it’s cool that it has Gel pads (Electrodes) can be used up to 30 times before replacing; heat up to 110 F for on the spot warmth – comparable to a low setting on a heating pad.
I appreciate the 6 pre-set body pain modes. Lovely!
It is safe and effective , both of which are of utmost importance when I am looking for relief of pain.
Rechargeable battery: Save money by not having to buy replacement batteries.
With my husband and I both using this, rechargeable batteries will really save us money.
I love that it has rechargeable batteries, it would save a lot of money in the long run.
Safe & Effective: 100% drug free, for home use, prescription free. Has been used by physical therapists and chiropractors for over 30 years.
I love that the battery is rechargeable and that it is portable enough to take with you when your away from home!
I like the preset body pains so you can place it on the area that needs relief without wasting time to find the proper setting.
I like that it relieves multiple body pains….would be great since my accident I have pain in my shoulder and lower back.
My parents have one of these TENS units for a while. Thanks!
I would also like the 5 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor from Omron.
I love that it has a rechargeable battery! That is a huge money saver!
I love that its a drug free pain relief that treats multiple parts of the body.
I like Body Composition Monitor And Scale With Five Fitness Indicators.
The rechargeable battery is my favorite feature! Some things are no longer a bargain (or they end up in the closet), when you have to keep buying batteries.
I love that it has a rechargeable battery. My husband would use this the most and that would come in handy.
I like that you can have different settings for different body parts. I often have both neck and knee pan and it would be nice to just switch over without having to get everything re-started. I think Omron is a great brand. I use their wrist BP cuff every day.
i love omron tens units- i have one that my daughter and I use frequently. but i love that they have added heat now, this really will help with our back pain issues!!
I haven’t seen one that uses heat also.
