A transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) unit is a battery-operated device that may help treat arthritis, fibromyalgia and other type of pain.
It works by delivering small electrical impulses through electrodes that have adhesive pads to attach them to a person’s skin.
these electrical impulses flood the nervous system reducing it’s ability to transmit pain signals to the spinal cord and brain.
the same electrical impulses also stimulate the body to produce natural pain relievers called endorphins

How do you use MUAC
Place the tape measure around the LEFT arm (the arm should be relaxed and hang down the side of the body).
Measure the MUAC while ensuring that the tape neither pinches the arm nor is left loose.
Read the measurement from the window of the tape or from the tape. Record the MUAC to the nearest 0.1 cm or 1mm.
MUAC is measured in adults and children, to the nearest 0.1 cm, using a flexible non stretch tape laid at the midpoint between the acromion and olecranon processes on the shoulder blade and the ulna, respectively, of the arm.
