manage period pain
How it Works
Gate Control Theory
This theory states that stimulation of nerves carrying non-painful sensations (called A-beta nerve fibers) closes a neurological “gate” in the spinal cord that reduces transmission from pain nerves (called A-delta and C nerve fibers) to the brain. By preventing pain signals from reaching the brain, the perception of pain decreases. An illustration of the Melzack and Wall theory is shown below :
Endorphin release Tens drives the motor nerves to produce small repetitive contractions that help activate the natural pain control response by releasing beta endorphins and ease the pain felt by the patient.
THE PROOF IS IN THE PULSE
1. Instant Relief
2. No side-effects
3. Use it anywhere
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Menstruation occurs when the uterus sheds its lining once a month which leads to pain, cramping, and discomfort. Painful menstruation is also called Dysmenorrhea.
A hormone called prostaglandin triggers muscle contractions in your uterus that expel the lining. These contractions can cause pain and inflammation. The level of prostaglandin rises right before menstruation begins.
Painful menstrual periods can also be the result of an underlying medical condition, such as:
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS). PMS is a common condition that’s caused by hormonal changes in the body occurring 1 to 2 weeks before menstruation begins. Symptoms typically go away after bleeding begins.
Endometriosis. This is a painful medical condition in which cells from the lining of the uterus grow in other parts of the body, usually on the fallopian tubes, ovaries, or tissue lining the pelvis.
Tija works on the ‘gate control theory’ by altering the body’s ability to perceive pain. It works by applying a small electrical current through Electro pads that are placed over nerve roots that supply the sensory fibres to the uterus and/or lower back. Once in place, the stimulation prevents pain signals from travelling to the brain.
