Electronic Acupuncture Pen Relief Pain Tool

A couple months ago my chiropractor gave me a similar device for stim on my wrists. My college wrestler son liked it, so I sent it back to school with him and ordered another. That one was a dud and I returned it. So I ordered this one, half expecting another return/failure. I was pleasantly surprised that it works as expected. Though I haven't figured out why I get a slight shock, only at times, in the hand holding the device. No worries - glad it works!

To start, if you are not familiar with TENS technology, you should probably research that. That's what this is. I bought it because I get frequent headaches. The pads on a TENS unit don't work well with hair. I was hoping the pen would do better at getting around the hair. It does, but the enclosed booklet gave me a brief but good overview of pressure points. I've discovered if I use the pen on the point at the base of my thumb, it controls headaches much better than direct contact. Those of you experiencing shock on your hand holding the unit - make sure you are using some kind of gel or lotion. I ran out of gel while I was at work so used chapstick. It works even better than the gel. It comes with two attachments plus the diagram indicates it can be used without a head - so three options - but I don't see any info regarding when I should use one over the other. It would be great if they could figure out how to have someone else control the pen so I can get help with pressure points on my back. I don't see how that's possible the way the unit currently works. It is most definitely worth what I paid for it.

Is great

This device is cheaply made. I wish that I would have written back when I first purchased it and or returned it. Life gets in the way, so it didn’t happen. This product doesn’t work correctly. The electricity runs through to the handle making it pretty much impossible to operate. Get a tens unit instead. This is complete garbage. I broke it out tonight to try and adjust it to see if it would make any difference. I thought I fixed it at first, but a couple of seconds later the electric pulse was running through to the handle again!

I’ve been using a more expensive brand for the longest which has also the acupuncture feature but I wanted a more convenient and portable one. This pen is strong and I can only tolerate #2 on my face. Overall I feel rejuvenated after the self pen massage. 20 minutes use it’s all it takes.

It came with a gel to apply before use. The gel was solid and unusable. the tool itself worked

Giving this a try to relieve constant pain in my facial area. A friend who also has TN2 swears by it. Just got it and did one treatment. I can’t turn it up to over 2. Yikes! Very powerful. I will update this review. After I’ve used it for awhile.

After using it for a few days and experiencing some relief in my hip, it stopped working while I was using it. The battery in it had plenty of charge, but I went ahead and tried another battery, and still no vibration. I'm extremely disappointed because it obviously was helping, because when I woke up this morning, I didn't yell out in pain as I sat up in bed. I gave it a two star because it provided relief, but I'm not interested in having it exchanged for the same item because if something stops working so soon after purchase, it's not worth it to me to try it again.

Great product , amazing experience

Not good at all, doesn't work inspite of new Duracell battery. Can't return or replace. Don't buy.

This helped me in reliving from minor body pain. i am using it for minor pain in hand neck and knee.

Poor product...the cream boxes were empty...the battery didn't fit and the product was defective...unfortunately, I didn't try it earlier as I was unwell. When I did open to try it for back pain, nobody knows what battery will fit into it...utterly disappointed. If the seller reads this, I would appreciate it if you could still replace it and give me a correct product, though the return window is shut.

Good Product and worth
