Worth investing in! – I have had back issues for a long time, with 2 operations and multiple visits to a physiotherapist. I trialed a tens machine from the hospital, which had wires. The big issue I had with that was, the wires would come out sometimes. I had to get someone to put the pads on, as well as the wires. So I looked for something without wires. I came across the WiTouch Pro, but was a little sceptical about whether it would stay on. I thought it was worth having a go. I love it! It doesn't take the pain away, for me. But it does have great benefits. They say the gel pads should last for 2 - 5 applications, but I have had the WiTouch for 2 months and have changed the pads once. I would rather pay for the pack of gel pads (5 pair) than to pay a physiotherapist, which is twice the cost of the gel pads. Another plus is, I can put it on myself. I HIGHLY recommend the WiTouch Pro.
Gives good relief of low back pain – Update: I've had this device for several years now, and I must say it's become an even bigger part of my pain management program. I still store the sticky pads in a zip lock bag, and I'm only on my 2nd set of them! They just seem to last forever! I have to travel by air sometimes for more than 35 hours, and the WiTouch has been a godsend. I put it on as soon as I clear security, and have never had a problem. I just love this thing.
This is a great device that emits TENS-like vibrations to help control pain. It self adheres and is wireless, and comes with a small remote control you can carry in your pocket. There are 3 different strength settings from extremely mild to briefly strong. Briefly, because it operates on a 3 phase schedule: 1) Five minutes on the highest frequency you set it for; 2) 20 min. on a very low frequency (you cannot adjust this step to higher); 3) 5 min. back on high. So 30 minute treatments, with a recommended 30 min. wait before restarting. It's light weight and is shaped in a perfect contour for the low back. It fits very comfortably under clothes and can be worn all day. It runs on batteries that after MUCH use, I haven't had to replace yet. There are a few downsides: The replaceable adhesive pads are expensive, although I have gotten multiple uses (around 7 applications) by storing device with pads in a zip-lock bag. The other downside is it's tendency to slip if not worn with pants to help keep pressure on it, especially in warm (sweaty) conditions. If not for these adhesive pad issues, I'd give it 5 stars. Still, a great device, especially during travel on planes or cars, etc.
