Sounds very interesting. How long did it take for your insurance to approve it and were there many steps you had to take?

Thanks for the post. I think this could be something I would be willing to try if my insurance covers it.

It took less than a week for my insurance co. to approve paying 80% on the unit. You must have a prescription from your doctor before you do anything. I'm not using the company I gave you the phone number for, because they are out of my network. My PT wanted me to use them. He's crazy if he thinks I'm paying over $800.00 to use the company that makes Alpha-Stim. I called my insurance co. and they gave me lists of in-network providers. That's how I found out that my insurance company will pay 80% and I'll pay 20% for the unit.

I've had 6 sessions and it seems to be working. My PT claims it could take up to three week before a difference is felt, but I'm already noticing a difference. I'm sold on the product.

This claims to take the pain away longer, so as long as I'm not shelling out 800 bones it's worth a try.

Thanks again.

I can tell you that before my body totally gave out and we put sex on the back burner (too much information?) my wife tried it & just gets red faced & very quiet when I mention this use in public. I've been looking for the link to the web site for the people who sell a modified tens unit for this purpose when I find it I'll post it
