I was just wanting some opinions on it......? I just have felt like doctors have laughed in my face when i mention a tens unit so it would be nice to not have to go through any!

I don't know about the tens at Sharper Image, but I saw a Chiropractor last week and he did not even question me and sold me a tens for my back for $60.00.

A TENS unit requires a physician's prescription. If you purchase one without it, you are breaking the law and the person selling it also breaking the law. I wouldn't trust any vendor who is willing to do that.

I've never seen one like that. Not sure about the belt with me. Something around the stomach hurts. Imagine you would have to have the belt tight enough for the electrodes to touch the skin. How about going for physical therapy and getting it that way? If you demand to try it would they give you a script?
