tiNa-start

The digital support for your TENS therapy

For this purpose, the mobile application tiNa-start, a CE-certified medical product, is used as digital therapy support for TENS therapy.

tiNa-start supports the compliance and correct implementation of the medical TENS therapy plan in the home environment. The self-determination and activation of patients for pain therapy with the help of TENS is promoted by a targeted learning program, commitment and motivation, as well as differentiated self-monitoring of the course of therapy. The patient is reminded if desired and can create data reports independently.

In addition, positive thinking is promoted during the TENS application with the help of mental training and the positive effect of TENS therapy is increased with the help of guided meditation and meditative music.

The effectiveness of tiNa-start is to be proven in a controlled, randomized clinical study with 258 patients and pain diagnoses from the areas of the back, neck and knees. A positive effect on quality of life is expected due to its direct influence on adherence to therapy and self-determination.

tiNa-start is designed for independent therapy support and monitoring using a TENS device at home.

tiNa-start enables systematic self-monitoring of the course of therapy, compliance with the TENS therapy plan and strengthening self-determination as a patient.

tiNa-start users can record pain and quality of life themselves as part of their TENS therapy using scientifically validated questionnaires and monitor changes using graphic progress overviews.

tiNa-start conveys relevant knowledge about the functioning and effects of TENS, pain in the musculoskeletal system and the practical implementation of TENS therapy in a clear and easily understandable way.
