    Location: Viola, IL | Tens units are typically too much current for horses, you have to watch the level and make sure they aren't uncomfortable.
The better unit to use would be a microcurrent machine, like best vet, where the electrical current is made for horses. |

Tenz are meant for people not for horse's. I would never use one on a horse, but for people they are wonderful. I have one & love it FOR ME not my horses. |

              Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | I have one too that me and hubby use once in a while, but would not use it on a horse may cause a blow up if used on one, when I use it is feels like pins sticking me, so not a good ideal for horses.  |

| I have one that I tried on my horses. Its hard to get the electrodes to stick. Even when you try to tape over them its still sitting on top of the hair, not on the skin |

A horse's system can not handle very much electricity so I would be very careful. |
