Good Points

I got pain relief after 5 consecutive days and within two weeks of daily use, I gave up Voltaren (NS Aids) which I was taking 3 times per day for lower back pain (I have degenerative discs, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis).


Bad Points

Unfortunately the TSE does not cure anything (and it doesn't profess to) - but after a month I felt so good that I started doing too much gardening and walking. I would invariably pay the price and be really stiff and sore for a day or two!
Placing the electrodes top and bottom of spine takes a bit of getting used to, but I soon got the hang of it - don't let that put you off - the pain relief was worth any effort.


General Comments

One year before buying the Acticare TSE, I had 3 lots of cortisone injections into my lower back and had been to a neurosurgeon who said I needed spinal fusion but told me to put it off as long as possible. I was about to buy a TENS machine when I saw the ad for Acticare TSE and even though there are 5 level of TENS included in the Acticare, I never use them - the TSE is more powerful and there is no discomfort for the hour the patches are attached to my skin.
After more than 18 months of TSE use, I hardly take any drugs and have absolutely no thoughts or need of going back to the neurosurgeon for dreaded back surgery.
There is no doubt the Acticare TSE stops the pain signals to the brain and I highly recommend it.
