TENS or EMS Machine?

There are two types of electronic muscle stimulation machines: TENS and EMS. So, what's the difference between them? Both systems send electrical pulses through the skin to the underlying peripheral nerves. While EMS devices cause the muscles to contract, TENS units stimulate the nerves. Accordingly, EMS devices are used for muscle building, while TENS units are designed to provide a pain relief. Which one do the job for you depends of what you want to achieve. The best option could be TENS / EMS combo units (yes, some of them offer both options).

We review light-commercial and home models of electronic muscle stimulators on a regular basis. We compare them by user ratings, expert opinion, quality of construction, price, buying conditions, and more, to help you choose the best machine without paying a lot.
