EMS or TENS: which device is right for me?
I want to train or regenerate my muscles
An EMS device is the right choice for you. It triggers muscle contractions via the electrodes, for example to supplement your training or after exertion. You can find suitable models under EMS devices for home use.
I want to manage pain as a complementary treatment
A TENS device is designed for this purpose and is often referred to as an electrical stimulation device. You can find both dedicated TENS devices and combination devices under TENS devices for home therapy.
I want one device that does both
Combination devices offer EMS and TENS programs, and in some cases also microcurrent or iontophoresis. They cost more than entry-level devices but are worthwhile if you are considering several applications. The programs available on each device are listed on the respective product page.
For home or clinical use?
The devices in this overview are designed for home use. For physiotherapy, rehabilitation and sports medicine, we offer more powerful devices under Professional electrotherapy.
Try an electrostimulation device first
We offer selected devices for rent. If you subsequently purchase one, 50% of the rental fee will be credited toward the price. You can find an overview under Rent EMS and TENS devices. Suitable electrodes are available under Accessories.
