    What an outrageous CON. You can buy a unit that does EXACTLY the same thing for around $200 - made by Omron who's products are first class. I have one and yes, they really do help aching muscles. Highly recommended.

    Your unit does not do the same as an Empi unit. You need to do some research before you open your mouth and sound like as ass because you clearly don't know what your talking about.

    Mike,

    Aside from your quick response to Collin, can you explain how the EMPI is superior to other TENS units that are in the $50-100? I need one and I can get a prescription for it, but I don't understand why they are so much more. I asked my PT and he said he didn't know what the difference was between the $800 and $100 units. One must assume that there is a difference, but is it like the difference between a 1974 Bordeaux red wine, which I couldn't afford, so I go for the 2006? (quality and status combined) I know there is a great difference between a 35 year old wine (that isn't corked) and one that is 3 years old.

    I just can't figure out what is different between these tens units. I'm asking for advise here- so please consider going into detail.
    thanks

    $800!!!!! Hardly accurate. I've had one for 6 years and got it for $50 bucks....yes that's 5 and a 0 = $50.

    um, or you can get one implanted into your spine and not get any muscle/skin/general stimulation and nerve stimulation only. medtronic.com
