Has anyone here, had any experience with Dr Ho's ten machine?

Asked by SQUEEKY2 (23425points) September 19th, 2015

Or the original tens machine, and which one did you think better.
Dr Ho’s is more expensive, than the original tens.
Is Dr Ho’s worth the extra money?

I used a TENS from LG Medical Supply for exercise after my surgery. I was trying to regain continence and needed to exercise the muscles in that area. I set the TENS to force me to do a kegel contraction of my perineum once every 5 seconds. The unit I have is two channels (4 leads), and you can set voltage, frequency, duration and timing pattern of the pulses. It cost about $80–90. It is battery operated and has so much power I cannot get even close to using the highest settings.
I don’t know why any unit would be more expensive .As long as you have the ability to adjust the characteristics of the pulses a pulse is a pulse is a pulse.

I can’t tell if it worked or not. Did I get better because I used it or because I exercised by myself or because I just healed? Who knows.
