I was wondering if anyone has tried or owns an EMS or TENS device? I know physical therapists use them routinely to treat tendonitis. I recall reading some literature when I was in PT well over a year ago that said PTs thought these devices were very effective in treating tendonitis. I don't find PT helpful at all with my swimmer's shoulder, although I have an adapted PT/RC home care program. (ART works better for me personally. Just my own experience.) But I was wondering if anyone had had any success with one of these devices on their own at home? I have heard a swim coach poo poo them as providing only temporary relief. But that same sentiment could apply to ice as well ... Thoughts?
I guess I may have to put some of these acronyms on the terminology thread .... ;)

I once had a chiropractor that used some electro-pulse device to loosten me up before the big crack. It was fun.
