Alpha-Stim or TENS for Pain Relief?

Discover the key differences between Alpha-Stim's MET technology and traditional TENS units.

When looking for electronic pain relief, many people are familiar with TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) units. However, Alpha-Stim utilizes a different and more advanced technology called MET (Microcurrent Electrical Therapy).

How TENS Works

TENS units use a strong electrical current to block pain signals from reaching the brain. While this can provide temporary relief while the device is turned on, the pain typically returns shortly after the device is turned off.

The Alpha-Stim Advantage

Alpha-Stim's MET uses a much lower, subsensory microcurrent that you often can't even feel. Instead of just blocking pain signals, this patented waveform works at the cellular level to increase ATP production, reduce inflammation, and promote true healing. The result is pain relief that is not only rapid but also long-lasting and cumulative.
