Empi has developed non-invasive, industry-leading pain management and physical rehabilitation products for over 30 years. The latest innovation is the Empi Activeâ„¢ TENS device. TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) is a clinically proven treatment that uses mild electrical stimulation to directly treat pain. There are ongoing news stories about the abuse of prescription and non-prescription pain relief drugs. The Empi Active device is a safe and effective pain treatment option that can reduce the dependence on these drugs. Clinical studies have shown that TENS therapy can reduce the need for pain medications.
