Hello. I am looking for a decent, yet affordable unit for my practice. Additionally, I have a patient that needs to use tens stim at home.

When a subject has ganglion (on the dorsum of the hand), there is prescribed in some literature that you can treat inserting needles directly in the wall of the cyst, after you lift and trust several times.

Thanks

Thank you!

I hit my elbow as many people have before but this time the pain that ran down my arm into my fingers has yet to go away after two weeks. I am certain that nothing is broken, torn, etc. However the pain is still very intense.
Any accupressure (or other methods or ideas) to make the pain go away and make my hand and arm useable again??? Thanks in advance.
