Question 1

Other than about 230 bucks, whats the difference between and my current tens unit? my $30 unit seems to have nore features and better battery...

Accepted Answer

BioWave is not a TENS unit, it is a patented smarter pain blocking technology. TENS units only deliver electrical signals across the surface of skin. As you turn up the intensity of a TENS unit, a noxious twitchy sensation forms at the surface which MAY act like a distraction to the pain, but the TENS signals never get to the pain nerves inside the body that are conducting the pain signals. BioWave is a patented high frequency neurostimulation pain blocking technology that delivers therapeutic electrical signals through skin into deep tissue right to the surface of pain fibers. The electrical field that forms around the pain fibers blocks the transmission of pain signals to the brain. The mechanism of action is similar to a chemical anesthetic like Novocain, except BioWave is blocking the transmission of the pain signal electrically instead of chemically. Because the pain signal is blocked at the nerve inside the body, a 30 minute treatment can provide up to 24 hours of continued pain relief. And there is a cumulative benefit with multiple treatments.

Question 2

I see there's a 30 day money back guarantee. But is there a warranty on the machine?

Accepted Answer

BioWave offers a 1 year limited manufacturer warranty on the product

Question 3

What is the difference between the biowave and the actipatch pain device

Accepted Answer

ActiPatch:

ActiPatch it is small OTC PEMF devices - they create a pulsed electromagnetic field and have to be worn for 24 hours. It claims to increase circulation however the magnetic field they create has no direct effect on pain nerves.

Biowave creates an electrical field inside the body that encompasses pain nerves and blocks the transmission of the pain signal at the source so the pain signal can’t travel up to the brain. BioWave’s electrical field also increases circulation in the region of the area being treated. Because Biowave blocks the transmission of the pain signal directly at the nerve inside the body, a 30 minute treatment can provide up to 24 hours of continuous pain relief and functional improvement. Multiple treatments can provide a cumulative benefit.
