Answers:

I think you are talking about a TENS unit because the other type of electrical stimulator that I know of (I have both) is called a Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) which is actually like a TENS unit implanted in your back (by surgery). You have to have a prescription to buy a TENS unit (or rent one), so I would talk to your doctor or chiropractor so you can get a prescription.

I would suggest buying one that is not digital because the digital ones are easy to bump and screw up the stimulation while you are using it and they are also much more expensive. I have this machine right here and it has been great- it has a range of power from high to low, and the best part is it's fairly in expensive. http://www.tensproducts.com/proddetailte...
