What to Consider When Choosing
Medical Device or Wellness Device
Not every device for home use is certified as a medical device. The classification of each device is stated on its product page.
Ease of Use
For beginners, devices with preset programs are the more practical choice. Adjustable parameters are especially useful if your therapist has recommended specific settings.
Ongoing Costs
Electrodes, gel pads, and ultrasound gel are consumables. Before buying, check which accessories you will need to replace regularly.
Consult Your Doctor or Therapist
A home device complements treatment; it does not replace it. It is best to discuss the modality and its use with your doctor or physiotherapist.
Try Before You Buy
We offer selected devices for rent so you can see whether they suit your needs before buying. If you subsequently purchase the device, 50% of the rental fee will be credited toward the purchase. Browse the selection: Rent Devices for Home Use.
Frequently Asked Questions About Home Physiotherapy Devices
Which physiotherapy device is suitable for home use?
TENS and EMS devices, compact ultrasound devices, magnetic field therapy, and pressotherapy are among the most commonly used. The right modality for you depends on your symptoms and your goal. It is best to discuss your choice with your doctor or physiotherapist—and feel free to ask us; we will be happy to help you choose.
Do I need a prescription?
Not to purchase one. Whether your health insurance will cover the cost depends on the device, indication, and insurer. It is best to check with your health insurer beforehand.
How do these devices differ from those used in clinics?
Home devices are more compact, often battery-powered, and mostly use preset programs. Clinical devices offer greater output, more channels, and adjustable parameters. You can find these under Physiotherapy Devices for Clinics.
When should I avoid using a device?
This depends on the modality. For electrical modalities, common contraindications include pacemakers and other implanted electronic devices. You can find an overview under Contraindications. If in doubt, consult a doctor before use.
