[RC] TENS and EMS - jpascu

Hello;
 
I've used both TENS and Micro Current Stimulation on my horses. (Never on a client's horse).
I was first introduced to the use of TENS by ride campers  and Tom Ivers years go when my wife's horse bowed a tendon. We were able to get this horse back to work, sound, in six weeks. He never bowed that tendon again.
I used the micro current stimulation on a horse, the same horse different leg, for a torn suspensory ligament. I was very impressed with the results from this treatment. Unfortunately this horse went on to break his leg, yet another one, and was put down.
I would recommend you look for the Lubecki videos the Tom Ivers used to sell and the book The Body Electric by Robert Becker, M.D.
 
regards
jim
