Anyone have real world use of these units ? Good or bad ?

on various parts of my body, eg shoulders/chest, back, hamstrings. It was prescribed by my chiropractor.  Works pretty well for me to relieve tight spots.  

 
If you’re asking about using electrical stimulation on certain other parts of the body… I haven’t tried that.

Buy a cheap one on Amazon and try it. Don't be fooled into a prescription for the same thing but 10x the cost. Like a lot of things they work for some and not for others.

I did put a TENS across my balls once. I don't recall how high I turned it up, but I wouldn't consider it a torture device, at least at the settings I had.  It was an interesting feeling.  

Fixed my golfer's elbow

I first used it for lower back pain.  Worked pretty well initially.  But as months went by and the pain got worse, didn't work as well.
