Guest guest Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 A teacher of mine got and used the Tennant Biomodulator, technology same as that use in the Russian space station, and used it after double hip replacements and was back on the tennis courts doing well after two weeks to a month. It has much more complex technology in it than a regular TENS unit; it uses SCENAR or toroid energy. A good grade laser would be a plus.To: BorreliaMultipleInfectionsAndAutism Sent: Thu, May 31, 2012 5:31:18 PMSubject: Re: friend with Lyme in horrible pain after hip surgery - alternatives to pain meds? I agree w/ on the TENS unit. Lasers really helped my husband after his hip replacement last fall....we had our Lightworks on him regularly, even in the hospital..he was out 1 day early/2 days from surgery. For rehab I also made sure he went to someone that works w/the Scalar laser....it really helped as well! Blessings! Rita > > Another thought is a TENS machine.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Tennant also has a transducer to go with it and it is amazing! Having been using on my son for 2 and 1/2 yrs and he has made huge social gains.T A teacher of mine got and used the Tennant Biomodulator, technology same as that use in the Russian space station, and used it after double hip replacements and was back on the tennis courts doing well after two weeks to a month.
