Probably everybody knows by now what is a TENS unit, and although it is widely used in the fetish/bondage world, I was wondering if there is any use for them to exercise the phallic apparatus?? Has anybody come across suggested routines or experiences using one of these machines?

From the website:
What is a Tens Unit?
TENS stands for (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation), which are predominately used for pain relief and the treatment of pain and nerve related pain conditions (acute and chronic conditions). TENS machines work by sending electronic stimulating pulses across the surface of the skin and along the nerve strands.
The stimulating pulses help prevent pain signals from reaching the brain.Tens devices also help stimulate your body to produce higher levels of its own natural painkillers, called "Endorphins"

Very cool thanks for getting that right up. I wonder if this will be helpful for men that have nerve damage from taking things too far in PE.

If you want to geek out on the technology, I found information about how TENS work below:
How a Tens Unit Work?
Tens Units provides great relief to people as the machine sends electrical current through electrodes and gives a sensation that eases the pain. Visit to know more!

I am a geek LOL but I guess that’s obvious. I’m gonna read all about it because I want to find something that helps with nerve damage. It’s not often the case here but occasionally men will complain about nerve damage that we had a way to give them something to heal that it would be awesome. So all geek out on it for a while LOL
Sorry for the late reply guys, and thank you so much y'all for collaborating.
As others already explained, the TENS unit tends electric pulses to contract the muscle. It is used as therapy for muscle pain and other things. Some over the counter models are pretty strong. It allows to send different types of electrical pulses like long or short waves for different types of contractions.
It is used in the fetish world more like a torture, although Ive read that you can achieve a hands free orgasm with it.
But my common sense tells me that if this is used in muscles, perhaps could pass the tunica wall and be used for the smooth muscle in the penis....of course we would have to read/experiement what would be the best type of routine for this.
Thanks guys!!

Ohh, TENS! Several posts later with clarification I remember better. :D
Many years ago I recall one member using it somehow in PE sense, but more so that he placed the pads behind his back, lower back area to my best memory.
I don't know if it were such a good idea to place any pads on balls or penis, although in fetish sense that is done.
In my gut feeling sense I might place some on my lower back as the other member did. Other possible area would be stomach, close to the pubic bone.
That way the effect would be close the PC muscles and so on.
All of this is speculation on my part. I've been interested about TENS in some sense, but haven't yet purchased any kind of machine.
I do see certain potential anyhow!

Well, I dont think there would be any benefit in putting the electrodes in the back of the body. Unless there was some sort of scientific explanation on how electricity could work in the nerves that go from the spinal cord to the penis. But that is not the main purpose of this. The TENS unit works directly on muscles. Just like when you exercise a muscle at the gym. When you curl a dumbbell with your arm for example, the bicep is contracting and therefore exercising. By putting the TENS electrodes in the bicep you can achieve a similar result. The electric pulses will contract the muscle.
Thats why it has caught my attention for the penis. The CC's are composed by smooth muscle.
Some people might logically say that a better result would be to put the electrodes in the anal area where the PC muscle is located, because the PC muscle is what pushes the blood to the penis to make it harder. But that wouldn't have a benefit in terms of growth. Because the pressure achieved in the CC's by contracting the PC muscle alone is not enough to cause tissue expansion.
Perhaps the penis under severe tension like hanging plus strong electrical pulses applied around it could have some sort of benefit on fatiguing tissues and smooth muscle. But Im just theorizing at this point.

Nothing wrong with theorizing! It's good to raise conversation.
The idea of lower back is just my hazy memory from the old thread.
And I recall there was something about applying pressure close to the tailbone area for better erection / orgasm.
It's a definitely an area / topic to be explored more.
Sometimes theorizing, getting ideas and talking about them can lead to new exercises and more gains for all the Brothers!

I agree and especially on this issue as up to now we have had no treatment for nerve damage other than massage. Perhaps this device or a device similar could deliver that healing property we so desperately need when nerve damage occurs.

That’s what I’m thinking. Whenever I see something new I try to think of other ways it can be used to benefit us.

i have a tens unit and I have put it on balls and penis and it KILLS!!!!!! I have no idea how anyone could ever stand this. I have put it on every body part and the only place that hurts just as much is if you put it on your temples but really it probably hurt a bit more on the penis, just both of areas hurt extremely bad. I'd love to find way to use it without feeling like my penis is being struck by lightning.
Thanks for sharing man!!
The balls, I dont think it would have any therapeutic or beneficial use over there other than fetish/masoquist purposes.
In the penis, does it feel like your skin is burning?? That is one of my concern due to poor electrode contact. My huge doubt is if it would be possible to pass the tunica and be able to stimulate the smooth muscle. It is perhaps a crazy idea but Ill put some research into it.

Per my research, I have read some posts on �other forum� that using nitrile gloves can stop electrocution. I have also read some using the electrodes on butt plugs and penis ring. Hmmm.
