Is it safe to use a Tens machine? I have used it a few times. It didn't seem to bother me. I just wondered if anyone has had a problem with using it with AF?

I have been using one for a couple of weeks due to a back issue. Avoid placing panels near your heart or against your neck and on your head. This seems to be the good advice that came with my Machine.

Not to be used if you have a pacemaker fitted
