UK Care, the distributors, say:
A new pain relieving product – Pain Doctor has been launched in the UK to offer fast, effective relief from all types of pain. Using a unique form of TENS therapy, this small, hand-held device has an overwhelming success rate, with over 95% of sufferers reporting a drastic improvement in their condition.

Pain Doctor can be used to treat almost any physical pain including the most debilitating, such as arthritis, back-pain, osteoporosis, spondolitis, rheumatism, sciatica, rheumatoid arthritis, migraine and inflammatory conditions.

A totally natural and safe way to relieve pain, the product incorporates a unique bio-feedback capability which, when gently pressed against the body seeks and locates the acupuncture point to relieve the pain. The Pain Doctor then stimulates this point of pain, which in turn encourages the body to help itself and speeds up the pain relief process. The user can decide upon the amount of time for a particular application and selects an intensity level that can be increased or decreased to their liking. Pain Doctor can be used as often as the user chooses, without any side effects and it is small and light enough to be carried in a handbag or briefcase, making its everyday use even easier.

Commenting upon the launch of Pain Doctor, Peter Watson, Managing Director at UK Care Products, sole UK distributors of the product said, “Pain Doctor is a unique product that works by delivering a controlled electronic pulse straight to the area of pain. Extensive trials of this TENS technology have demonstrated it can provide prolonged and often instant pain relief for all kinds of ailments.”

Continuing further he said, “Having only been made available in the UK for a couple of months, the product is already generating a very encouraging response from the public and we have received positive testimonials from all over the UK as to the products effectiveness.”

Clinically proven to provide pain relief, Pain Doctor is successfully used in NHS Hospitals and pain clinics throughout the UK and meets the stringent requirements of the European Medical Device Directive.

Pain Doctor is sold with a full 30-day money back guarantee. Most people who buy Pain Doctor under this guarantee decide to keep it, which just shows the level of overwhelming relief its users feel.

FISHINGmagic VERDICT

Anglers will always be prone to the usual aches and pains associated with cold and damp, and I’m no exception. So, being a sucker for a gadget and having one or two painful joints, I was intrigued by this electronic acupuncture product right from the moment I opened the box. It’s an easy to use, attractive looking device that you can use while you watch the TV or just daydream about fishing.

But as ‘they’ say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating, so did the Pain Doctor do me any good?

Well, I’ve been suffering from tennis elbow for some time, and it was beginning to worry me because it’s the last thing you want when you do any amount of flyfishing, being as you’re using your rod all the time. Unlike most other types of fishing where the rod spends a lot of the time in the rod rest. Anyway, tennis elbow would be an excellent test for the Pain Doctor.

Following three weeks of using the Pain Doctor twice every day I can honestly say that my elbow is almost as good as new – and I’m flyfishing regularly now again as well. What I don’t know yet is if the Pain Doctor is going to be any kind of cure, or if it works like pain killing tablets and simply offers relief. Time will tell.

To use it you just turn the dial to a setting from one to five and then apply the probes to the trouble spot, slowly moving it in small circles. The slower you go the more you can feel the pulses driving into the muscle or joint. At the higher settings it feels like the probes are burning into your skin, so all you do is move it a little faster or decrease the intensity. It can also be used on known acupuncture spots which are indicated in the booklet that comes with it.

So far I’m very pleased with the results from the Pain Doctor and although I’m not looking forward to any more aches and pains, the Pain Doctor will be the first thing I turn to for relief.
