painawaypro faqs page revolution in pain relief

The PainAway Pro is a medically proven device that utilizes a unique combination of cold and electrical therapy (TENS) to produce professional quality pain management in the comfort of your own home. When the PainAway Pro is placed on or near the area of pain the unique combination of soothing cold and electrical pulses are sent through the skin and along the nerve fibers. The cold controls and eliminates swelling and inflamation, while the pulsed stimulation suppress pain signals to the brain. The PainAway Pro also stimulates the body to produce its higher levels pf pain killing Beta-Endorphin’s (natural morphine) to insure longer, deeper and more complete relief.

The difference is the PainAway Pro pad. The PainAway Pro pad is made of platinum grade silicone and a proprietary thermal filler with embedded carbon fiber electrodes .This revolutionary combination allows for the therapeutic application of electrical pulses with simultaneous immediate and unsurpassed tissue cooling to quickly produce a comfortable, deep long lasting pain relief. Due to the large area treated with the PainAway Pro pad, placement is not nerve specific, but rather effective when placed on or near the area of pain. The synergistic effect of cold assisted electrical stimulation evokes an intense physiological response producing desired deep pain relief. Clinical trials have shown the PainAway Pro to be 300% more effective than TENS alone.

TENS is short for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and is defined by the American Physical Therapy Association as application of electrical current through the skin for pain control. For over 40 years TENS units have been a convenient portable, effective and affordable way of controlling and managing pain. TENS units generate electrical impulses that are sent through electrodes placed over your area of discomfort. TENS is safe, non-invasive, drug free, non-addictive, has no side effects and can reduce the need for pain-control narcotics.

TENS is thought to work by three different methods:
1- Low frequency electrical activity stimulates the body's own natural pain-control mechanism, causing the body to release pain-relieving endorphin’s.
2- Electrical stimulation intercepts pain signals before they reach the brain, limiting the body's ability to feel pain sensation. Unlike many medications, TENS Units have no toxic side-effects.
3- TENS is well documented to increase localized blood flow in the treatment area. This increased circulation can assist in flushing inflammatory toxins from the area.

For almost 50 years Doctors, Chiropractors & Physiotherapists have used cold assisted TENS in hospitals and pain clinics. It works in the professionals office and it will work in your home. Those who have used of the Painaway Pro say that the feeling is soothing and comfortable

The PainAway Pro works best if you use it at the onset of pain - don't wait for the pain to get worse. Since TENS and cold therapy are a non-medicinal, non-invasive therapy it can be used on an "As Needed" basis. However, the recommended treatment time per area on a specified body part is usually 15 minutes, 2 - 5 times per day. Some people with continuous chronic pain may need to use PainAway Pro more frequently.

The degree of pain relief varies from person to person. There is no way of telling how well it will work for an individual problem. Best results may be gained by finding the best position of the pad and electrical intensity to suit your specific pain. A single treatment can give pain relief lasting anywhere from minutes to several days. Chronic pain suffers may have to use the PainAway Pro several times a day Users of the PainAway Pro have experienced a reduction in the number of pain recurrences, the intensity of pain, and the daily need for analgesic drugs.

When used properly, the PainAway Pro should never cause you to experience discomfort. If you are experiencing this, turn off your unit and make sure that you have used sufficient contact gel over the electrodes. Check the contact between the electrode and skin surface. Contact must be properly maintained to ensure proper functionality. The TENS wave may be to strong if so then turn down the intensity on the TENS unit.
