FOREWORD
AS1080 is a two output channels TENS machine and highly
effective in relieving pain, different program suits to different
parts of the body and pain. TENS stands for Transcutaneous
Electrical Nerve Stimulation is recognized as a safe and highly
effective method of relieving pain. TENS is now regularly
recommended by doctors, physiotherapists and pharmacists
throughout the world. Before using, please read all the

future reference. Due to its portable appearance, the use of the

Powered muscle stimulator (PMS), also known as Electrical
Muscle Stimulation (EMS), which repeatedly contracts muscles
by passing electrical currents through electrodes contacting the
affected body area.
Before using, please read all the instructions in this user
manual carefully and keep it safe for future reference.
HOW DOES TENS WORK
Scientific theory suggests that electrical stimulation therapy
may work in several ways.
● The gentle electrical pulses move through the skin to
nearby nerves to block or shut out the pain message from
ever reaching the brain from the source of the pain.
● The gentle electrical pulses increase the production of
the body’s natural pain killer.
● Furthermore, it is thought that the electrical stimulation
improves blood circulation as well. Muscles contract
and relax with the flow of the electrical stimulation. With
5
UK
repeated contracting and relaxing, the blood flows in and out
and the blood circulation is improved.
Functions (Intended for use) Intended uses include the
following:
TENS:
- Temporary relief of pain associated with sore
- Aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, upper
extremities (arm)
- Lower extremities (leg) due to strain from exercise
