TENS & Electrical Stimulation Therapy

TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) and related electrical stimulation therapies deliver low-level electrical current through the skin. TENS is commonly used to help manage pain, and patients may use it as part of care for muscle strain, nerve-related discomfort, or ongoing pain.

How It Fits Into Care

At Complete Care, this modality is offered as one part of a broader approach to pain management and rehabilitation. A Provider on our team oversees care that may include electrical stimulation alongside other services.

What to Expect

  • Non-invasive — electrodes are placed on the skin near the area being treated.
  • During visits — typically applied during scheduled visits as part of a rehabilitation plan.
  • Used with other care — often combined with other services, such as therapeutic ultrasound.

Not every patient is a candidate for electrical stimulation, and results vary.

Coverage

We accept many insurance plans, including major medical insurance, HMO plans with a referral, No-Fault, and Workers' Compensation. Coverage varies by plan, so please call the office to confirm yours.
