In this episode I discuss with Physiotherapist, Fiona Rogers:

• What is TTNS (Trans tibial nerve stimulation) using a tens machine and how does it work?
• Why don’t we hear more about it?
• Where does it stand amongst other treatments for overactive bladder
• When in practice you may consider applying TTNS
• Suggestions for purchasing a TENS machine
• Settings/parameters ideal for overactive bladder
• How a patient would apply TTNS themselves
• Success rates
• Side effects
• The difference between PTNS (percutaneous trans tibial nerve stimulation) and TTNS
