And yes, despite the affordable price, the tested model was able to provide so much. We were really impressed with its functionality therefore this unit is one of the best in the lists. 

The healthmateforever review of this tested model is more than just positive. It has it all and yet it is even more affordable than previous 2 versions. The model we have here comes with a small, practical LCD and buttons for controlling it. The battery can last up to 10 hours and you are going to appreciate the timer which can be set between 10 and 80 minutes with just a few clicks.

Other than that, we are looking at high-quality gel pads and advanced features. It is definitely a model to consider if you are thinking a TENS unit which can perform well at the same time maintaining your budget. There is no need in telling you that we tested it in real-world application and it actually works really well.

Here we have the most powerful TENS unit with NG10GL and one that is more than just desirable at the moment. Reasons why it is on our list, are obvious and simple.

It comes with advanced features, FDA approved and this model even supports Wireless kit. You will get a receiver, transmitter and 2 sets of pads. The pads are a masterpiece and they are extremely comfortable to use. The unit is battery-powered and it is also based on the latest technology. The model we tested offered 20 levels of intensity and 10 different modes. More than enough for most of you.

It is always important to check on buyer's guide whenever you want to purchase something in order to have a clear idea on which factors that you will need to take into account. This applies to buying a brand new TENS unit too. 

In our buying guide, we are going to list down all the main factors and features to consider before making your purchase, in order to help you choosing a right unit. Once you reach the end, you will at least roughly get a general idea on TENS units and it then helps you to choose the model best suited to your requirements. 

Modes and Programs

This is the first, main factor to consider. It makes a TENS unit far more capable and far more sophisticated. But these two features are not the same. Programs refer to the type of massage you will get. For example, we can see shiatsu here. More built in programs in the unit literally mean that you will get more possible massages.

Modes refer to the body part optimization. Here we can see neck, shoulders and etc. Basically, you will choose the mode, place the pads on the correct place of the body and turn on the device. Once again, the more the merrier. It simply allows for you to use the same unit for more than just one body area.

Channels

Channels will determine how capable the unit is. We can see one or two channels. Each channel will power two gel pads, so a unit with 2 channels can be used with 4 pads. A unit with one channel can be used with one or two gel pads only. Keep in mind that a unit with 2 channels can be used with 2 or 4 pads, but a unit with one channel can be used for 2 pads only. There is no need in telling you that 2 channels are always a better choice.

When looking for a device with 2 independent channels, make sure that both of them are capable of using 100% of the power at all times. This was an issue with some older units. The first channel used 100% of power, while the second one used less. It simply offers less-effective results.

Intensity

Some of you will believe that intensity is an irrelevant feature to consider, but this isn’t the truth. Intensity will determine the overall power of the unit you are using. If it has 50 levels, it is 2 times more powerful than a unit with 25 levels. All models we have mentioned here are more than just powerful, so this won’t be an issue.

Nevertheless, if you are looking for some other model, make sure to pay a close attention to this feature. It is a game changer and it can make a huge difference, especially if you have a severe health issue.

Battery

Simplicity

For most users, a TENS unit is still a new and fresh device. All the features are unknown and look confusing. That’s why manufacturers were able to make these devices extremely simple.

Healthmate forever is the absolute leader in this field and their units are simpler than any other. Basically, you will have to place the pads, choose the desired mode, program and activate it. After that, you will be able to use additional adjustments which are designed to make the device more user-friendly. If you are new to this, make sure to read the Healthmate Forever electronic pulse massager manual. Some controls may be different than they seem.

Control

How will you control your new TENS unit? Here we can see two alternatives as well. The first one is old and popular. You will have buttons and an LCD and you will control the unit using the mentioned buttons. For some of you, they may be the best alternative and they may be extremely easy to use.

However, newer generations are completely touchscreen-focused. That’s why we were able to see models that use touchscreen control. There is no need in telling you that all you have to do is to use the touchscreen in order to choose the desired feature. Some units come with stylus pens. It is a desirable alternative but also makes them slightly more complicated to use.

Size

Let’s face it, you are going to carry your TENS unit with you at all times. That’s why you should take the size into consideration. Yes, they are all small, but not all of them have the same dimensions. Some models are extremely small, while others are bigger.

This makes a huge difference in a nutshell and may be the most important factor to consider. We should add that some of them come with a carry case, while others don’t. If you are planning to use the TENS unit at home only, then this is an irrelevant factor.

Pads

A good thing is the fact most models come with gel pads, so here we can see the advantage. Older models used suction-based pads, which are uncomfortable, especially when used in some body areas. All our TENS unit reviews are based on comfortable models, which will be suitable even for the most demanding users.  

Accessories

Accessories may include additional elements in the packaging. Here is common to see a charger, spare battery or additional pads. Basically, make sure to get all possible accessories in the package. Purchasing them additionally won’t be a wise thing due to two reasons.

It may be impossible to find them for the specific model you have. The second, they may be expensive. The only case when you should look for accessories if when the current models get an upgrade, so new accessories are released.

These devices are still relatively new, so there will be plenty of additional accessories on the market any time soon. There is no need in telling you that they make the TENS unit more personal as well.

Timer

Warranty

You would expect one or two-year warranties here. But, actually, we can see lifetime, limited warranty. It is one of the biggest Healthmate forever advantages and it is the one that makes these devices extremely special and superior, compared to other models. They are not some cheap units you will use for a short period of time, occasionally. They are sophisticated and advanced units which must include the longest warranty possible. Also, the price of them is all but low.

TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulations and it is one of the most common ways used to eliminate pain from your body. Basically, these units will send electrical impulses to the nerve fibers and prevent them from sending pain signals back to the brain. As such, this method is more than just effective and it helps people of both genders, all age types and etc.

As the end result, we can see pain elimination. But, the impulses also affect the levels of endorphins or chemicals which eliminate pain and release the pleasure feelings. This is the second main reason why TENS units are so effective and why they offer superb results compared to any other alternative.

EMS stands for Electronic Muscle Stimulator. Keep in mind that this is the same as PMS or Powered Muscle Stimulator. The second name here is a newer version. The difference between TENS and EMS is that the latter one causes the muscle to contract by sending electrical pulses, and then improve blood circulation helps to reduce pains. However, both types are equally effective and nowadays they are commonly used as an alternative to TENS units.

Both of these units are tested and approved by the FDA. They monitor the effects and the results of a unit and check it for any side effects. The four models listed in our review are all DA-approved, meaning that they have passed testing and safe to use.
