ActivLife Activbody Tens Machine

UNUSABLE ELECTRODE PADS – Been buying from ActivLife for over 20 years, with no fuss, but their electrode pads have changed (possibly a new supplier). Gel has come away from electrode pads after only minimal use, and once it balls up, you can't reattach. If electrodes remain the same, will unfortunately have to change to a new supplier. Show details

Great Gadget but no longer sold and lead accessories still sold do not fit properly – I love my Activlife TENS gadget but the company no longer sells them, their servicing offers have changed and the leads they sell as accessories look different to the leads they used to sell and they slip out constantly. It seems things have changed a lot since the original owner of the business is no longer there. It seems the business is winding… Read more

down. I do not know if another company now sells the TENS under another company name. This review is "in my opinion".

Looking for Help for MS – This may work on muscle problems but does not appear to help with nerve problems. Hoping it would for my son with MS pain. He say's it may be a distraction but seems to make the nerves worse when he takes it off. Did work on my own pain which is more muscle with some nerves . I did find it relaxing on relieve. Find it very portable and can walk around with it on.

Excellent – I'm at the end of a serious sciatica flare up & this TENS device has been great. I use it for hours literally every day. After the trial, I'm going to buy the unit. It's easy to use and portable.

read some reviews and decided to rent one and test it out for myself! It has certainly aided in my relief, I know manage my condition with daily use of my tens unit, Physio, and gym and I could not be any happier it has really helped. If I feel my back starting to cause any pain either at home or at work I just put the pads on and I get relief, I am more than happy with my purchase and the staff are more than helpful and great service.

Fixed my incontinence problem! – The InControl TENS machine has seriously changed my life. Big statement, I know, but it's seriously the truth. I have been suffering from incontinence for the past 15 years and never done anything about it, until my friend raved about this machine. Dubious, I bought one as a last resort. I can tell my pelvic floor is stronger after just 10 days.… Read more

This is the best thing I've ever seen, and it's like a mini vibrator. #winning. More people need to know about this machine. I now call it my best friend, much to my husband's dismay :) Buy one and give it a go. You won't be disappointed. Btw, my friend broke her hip a few months ago and used the sports one after surgery and said it was amazing. Massive thank-you from both of us. Cheap for the excellent results, tiny, easy to use

Invaluable relief! – After hearing about the tens system at my hypnobirthing classes, I hired a unit for the birth of my son. As my labour did not progress once my waters had broken, I had to be induced. The onset of labour pain was therefore very quick and the intensity of the pain was very strong from the start. The ActivNatal TENS system (coupled with deep… Read more

breathing exercises and mediation music) worked fantastically for me for managing 6 hours of intense contractions. I highly recommend this product and would not hesitate to use it again.

Pain relief from long term arthritis – The ActivBody Tens machine has been providing consistent pain relief from arthritic pain in my hands, feet , lower back and knees. It is so easy to use, compact in size and efficient. I have been taking a variety of non prescription medications over the years,with little positive benefit. There is little that can be done for osteoarthritis so it… Read more

is wonderful to gain such benefits after only a few months, and reassuring that I don't have to take pain killers with all their possible side effects.

Amazing result – I was impressed how such a small machine could be so effective. I felt the benefit as soon as I started using it and I am still amazed at how efficient it is. I must thank 2 of my friends for suggesting it. They both own one and swear by it.

life changing machine, just awesome – I have chronic pelvic pain which affects many areas, and need to take many differant strong pain and nerve medication. When first started using the TENS machine, i was shocked at how well it worked and it took the pain away better then most pain killers I was on.

Many multiple uses - fantastic! – I originally bought the ActivLife TENS machine as it was recommended to assist through the labour of my first child.

It is extremely small with very long… Read more

leads, which means that I can tuck it away into a trouser pocket even if the affected area is my neck or shoulders. I can therefore continue daily tasks as normal should I wish to.

relief from shingles – I wasn't sure about using a tens machine; a bout of shingles has left me with pain in my shoulder and back. I read the instructions, and with some trepidation, placed the electrodes as advised. After a few sessions I was sold! The tens machine is a gift that has enabled my recovery in record time. Many thanks ActivLife! Mary It's small and compact, simple to use and - most important - very effective!

Life saver! – I used the Sportsmed TENS after my double bunion surgery earlier this year. It was incredibly effective! I not only used it for my pain relief but also to strengthen my calf muscles whilst I was immobile. When my muscles started cramping, I used the muscle stimulation which removed the cramps completely. It was also amazing at helping me relax and relieve my stress. I highly recommend this machine to anyone. I can't praise it enough!

Can't live without it – I have had a sore back as long as I can remember. The pain unfortunately went down into my legs a few years ago and I found I was spending all my money on chiros.

Fantastic during my pregnancy and labour! – I initially bought my ActivLife tens machine for my labour, but was so relieved I could also use it for my lower back and neck pain for the last 5 months of my pregnancy. A lot of my friends are having babies at the moment, so I'm telling everyone to buy one! Small and discreet

Great relief – Initially I used my tens machine for a netball injury to my knee. I needed about 2 months physio 3 times a week so I started using the tens machine to help speed up the process of my knee getting better and hopefully reduce the cost of having to go to the physio. It did help quicken the process and eased the pain I had after a day at work. I… Read more

also had used the tens for my wrist as constant clicking on the mouse at work has developed a bit of RSI, and it helps with that pain. The wrist pain is also referred to the shoulder and the tens is great putting the pads on either side of my shoulder and getting right into the joint. Interchangeable pads, reliable, easy to charge.

Fantastic! – I bought my SportsMed tens machine 2 weeks ago from ActivLife Technologies and it's absolutely fantastic! I'm so glad I found ActivLife as I suffered a prolapsed disc in my spine and I was desperate for some relief. When I left the hospital I was told I would need intensive physio for a month. I was recommended ActivLife by a friend and thought I… Read more

No More Post Sporting Pain – Living with acute achilles pain after a long sporting career, the ActivBody eases my strong pain and often makes the pain go away completely.

It's very powerful and I certainly don't have it at full… Read more

I'm so glad I… Read more ·  1

It worked wonders and I'd recommend it to anyone!
