PowerDot Therabody 2.0 Duo - Stim TENS Unit for Pain Relief - Bluetooth Electrical Muscle Stimulation Device, 2 Smart Wireless NMES & TENS Pods for Muscle Pain, PMS and Menstrual Period Cramps (Blue)

First time using a unit like this and it worked great to help heal chronic heal pain I’d been battling. Also have used it for recovery. Appreciate how easy it is to use. Sometimes the signal drops but overall it’s definitely worth it.

This device provided great pain relief until, shortly after purchase, it was eviscerated when the charging cord was gently removed. With the port and wires on the device’s exterior, it became useless. The seller was contacted. Proof of purchase was provided as requested. After that, radio silence—no further response whatsoever. Save your $200. Yeah, it feels good. But if it can’t withstand charging? Grab a TENS from CVS for less than 1/6 the price. It won’t have the fun Bluetooth aspect, but it will work—and if it doesn’t, you’ll be able to buy 5 more for what you spend on this device from a company that offers zero customer service when their devices fail when new. Additional edit: despite a dissatisfied review detailing issues and providing proof of sale, NO remedy or refund was offered. The Dot landed in the garbage after a handful of uses. I have EXTENSIVE experience with both TENS and electric stim used in physical therapy and chiropractic; I’ve been using TENS at home since it was cutting-edge new in the early 1980s, and have had higher stim in therapeutic environments. This device IS effective. But mine was faulty and I was offered NO customer support. If yours works well—great! Maybe you’ll be happier. I wouldn’t gamble on it.

I like to give credit where credit is due and also dispel any negative reviews this product may have received. I'm not affiliated with this company in anyway and purchased this product for my thigh and lower back pain due to a major leg injury and surgery. I also waited a few weeks before writing this review because I was initially skeptical. Let me start by saying this product is extraordinary and I use it every day. I found no functional issues whatsoever and connecting the App with the hardware has been seamless. It has been consistently reliable and without any issues. There may have been one instance when I opened the app before turning on the devices. This was easily resolved once I restarted the app. It generally detects the hardware almost immediately and this has been rarely an issue. The product offers a wide variety of preset massage, workout and pain relief programs within the app. They are amazing and offer highly targeted immediate relief. I've yet to try them all. In closing this has performed way beyond my expectations. Fully charged it lasts longer then expected and charges very quickly. It's a high quality product, exceptionally well made and very reliable. Highly recommend it.

PowerDot has been great for my needs and I like that the original/red sticky pads are long lasting, but I can’t say the same for replacement pads; the blue/replacement pads from my experience peel off easily, on clean skin, even though they are brand new out of the packaging (I have replaced pads twice and the experience has been the same).

It’s as described. I’m just slightly confused on how to use it as when I connect the pads it doesn’t work per se. I’m sure I’ll figure it out.

I rarely write a review, but I'm so happy with this gadget and has changed my life so much that I felt I had to share my experience here. I tore my Achilles tendon 6 months ago. At therapy, this type of unites have helped me tremendously. I wanted to have a TENS unit at hope, and liked the fact that this unit had bluetooth connection so I can handle it with my phone. I was worried it might not have enough punch. But Oh my!! this little units are great. I got the duo. I use it mainly for pain management around my injury, but also to build muscle on that side since it's a tricky area. I travel a lot for work and pleasure, I discovered you could use it to avoid clogs and manage inflammation on long haul flights, I gust recently used in a couple of flights, one was 12+ and battery behaved beautifully. I fully recommend it. My only advice if for potential users to understand that you'll have to buy pads to replace the ones it comes with, as they eventually loose their stickiness, this is normal with any kind of device like this. Hope it works!

Believe all the negative reviews regarding bluetooth connection issues! They will constantly disconnect during your program giving you no way to adjust the stimulation level and can introduced safety concerns. They rarely reconnect. This is with your phone IN YOUR HAND and not across a room! I bought this to use on my back and consistently within the first minute or two of use, they will disconnect. Over 50 attempts I have literally never been able to complete a back program. One time I started a back program and began to increase the intensity. As I was getting up to the level I wanted, I went up too much and started feeling pain. However, the powerdots timed its disconnect right at that moment. Since they were on my back, it was very difficult for me to reach them and took me a while to press the physical button on them to stop them while enduring that pain. I tested by having my phone placed on my back and I have to keep my phone about 6-8 inches away for it not to disconnect. Obviously, that is not viable as you have no control without your phone in hand. Addditionally, as I've researched more about this issue, it appears this product is being phased out by Therabody. Given the lack of support for these issues, pads being unavailable for months on end, no new marketing for powerdot in forever, the website having links that go nowhere and get 404 error messages, the app having news & education post from two years and older and nothing more recent, the app itself not having any software updates in nearly a year, the forums don't work anymore, and the list goes on and on. This product would be amazing if it actually worked as designed. The app is great and I like the physical form factor of the dots. But with all the issues I've mentioned it is definitely a DO NOT BUY!! Ironically in the picture I uploaded, I was holding my phone and had the pads exactly like the person in the app photo. Yet they disconnected and would not reconnect, something that happened each time I tried to run the program.

Ok first off I hated TENS when in PT fur my neck as a teen so I was hesitant to try this. However, my trainer insisted I try it and I immediately bought one for myself! This is my go to post workout recovery device! I can put this on something fatigued or slightly strained, and like magic I feel great the next day! I love that this has every kind of programmable option you could think of from managing an injury pain area to recovery from a gnarly workout. It’s super easy to use and has crazy good battery life! This thing is a must have for anyone that loves to workout 5+ days a week on hard grueling workouts. Also great if you just need recovery from sitting at a computer or desk all day. This is a wonderful device. I use it at least 1 time a week and more often 2-3 times a week!

Imposible conectar una cápsula vía bluetooth con la app móvil….desilusión total. Ahorraré un poco más y iré a por Compex.

Il prodotto è eccellente, innovativo e leggero. Purtroppo per un errore mi è arrivata la versione singola Pur avendo pagata la doppia. Ho dovuto fare il reso

Ich kenne so Geräte vor 10-20 Jahren aber da hat sich viel verbessert, mich voll überzeugt, auch mit der App. Was schlecht ist, nirgends gibt es aktuell die Pads zu kaufen.

It has been effective in relieving hamstring syndrome and cramp fasciculation syndrome. I'm amazed quite frankly. I have found the pads to be effective for much longer than the maker claims - I have been using the original pair for over 40 times and they remain effective with plenty of tacky substance still on the back. It may help that I'm female and have smooth hairless legs. I wish I understood more about the programs - what settings they are using, but PowerDot keeps it a mystery with vague descriptions like 'Wellness' and 'Focus On' but even so, the results are all very good. I recommend the PowerDot from my experience.

It helps a lot. It reduces the pain in the back or shoulders after a work out or just as a massage to relax the body.
