Description

Electro stimulation pass {Pain Relief Patch with TENS}

The present invention provides an electrical stimulation parser. The electrical stimulation pars of the present invention is an addition of an electrically conductive material to a conventional conventional pars, and when used by attaching an electrode for tension on the surface of the pars, the effect of the drug itself and the physical therapy effect by the electrical stimulation are simultaneously affected. Can be provided to

It is a conventional medicine containing painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and arthritis drugs for the purpose of alleviating and treating pain such as muscle pain, bruises, back pain, joint pain, neuralgia, arthritis, and rheumatism of the lower back, joint, neck, etc. There are a wide variety of different types of parenteral external preparations, including parenteral transdermal agents, which are divided into pars, ointments, gels, aerosols, lotions, and water pastes. In the parenteral percutaneous administration agent, the paste attached to the affected part is generally a component having analgesic anti-inflammatory effect on the sheet-like envelope of elastic nonwoven fabric such as el-menthol, salicylic acid glycol, red pepper extract, nava, etc. It is used so that it does not fall from the affected part, and it irritates the sore spot and promotes blood circulation so that the pain is forgotten. Unlike saliva, moxibustion, and cupping, it is a procedure that simply attaches without causing pain to the human body at all. Side effects and rejection does not appear in the human body has the advantage.

Low frequency therapy device is called TENS, OUTO TENS, autotranscutaneous nerve therapy device, percutaneous nerve stimulator, etc., through the weak electricity (medium, low frequency) to the human body, the muscle mass is directly exercised by the stimulation. Enhancement takes place, serves to increase the basal metabolism. Therefore, low frequency therapy device can be used for neuro sedation, muscle disease treatment, promoting blood circulation, reducing abnormal muscle spasms, reducing protein components, reducing fat cells, reducing obesity, maintaining elasticity, and removing stool.

In general, a low frequency therapy device attaches a pad for tension to a joint or a muscle, and connects a tension electrode to the tension pad to perform physical therapy by low frequency stimulation. Tension electrodes and pads used in the low-frequency treatment device described above can be classified into one-time use and semi-permanent use. In the case of semi-permanent electrodes and pads that can be used semi-permanently, they can infect skin diseases even if disinfection is performed. Most of the disposable tension electrodes and pads are used because of hygiene problems. However, there is a problem that the electrodes for the tension and the pad are discarded after a single use, resulting in economic waste. In order to solve this problem, if the tension pad used in the low frequency therapy device is manufactured to perform the role of the therapeutic wave at the same time, the tension pad discarded after the low frequency therapy can be used as the pars for a period of time, thereby solving the above-mentioned economic problems. I think it can be solved.
