EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) targets motor nerves to cause muscle contractions — used for training, toning and recovery. TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) targets sensory nerves to block pain signals — used for chronic and acute pain relief. Most Tesmed devices include both modes.

Yes. All Tesmed devices are CE-certified medical devices, designed to be used safely at home by non-professionals. Each device includes a full instruction manual. As with any electrical therapy device, avoid use near the chest if you have a pacemaker, and do not use during pregnancy without medical advice.

Each channel controls one pair of electrode pads (targeting one body area). 2 channels = 2 areas at once. 4 channels = 4 areas simultaneously (most popular). 6 channels = 6 areas (Trio 6.5 — ideal for full-body sessions). More channels means more versatility without having to move pads.

The TESMED Max 830 is our bestseller — 115 programs, 4 channels, CE-certified clinical grade. Trusted by physiotherapists and athletes. The X-PULSE is our fastest-growing device for users who want a fully wireless experience.

Returns & Warranty

We offer a 30-day return policy. If you're not satisfied with your purchase, contact us within 30 days of delivery. The product must be unused and in its original packaging. Once we receive and inspect the return, a full refund will be issued within 5 business days.

All Tesmed electrostimulators come with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. Electrode pads and consumable accessories are not covered under the device warranty. To make a warranty claim, contact us at support@tesmed.com with your order number.
First, check that the electrode pads are properly connected and have not dried out — worn pads are the most common cause of poor output. If the device still doesn't work, contact us at support@tesmed.com and we'll arrange a replacement or repair under warranty.
Using Your Device
Electrode placement depends on the muscle group you want to target. See our Electrode Positioning Guide → for visual guides for all major muscle groups including abs, back, legs, arms and shoulders.

For muscle training: 3–4 sessions per week, 20–30 minutes per session. For pain relief: as needed, up to twice daily for acute pain. For recovery: 1 session after intense training. Always follow the program guidelines in your device manual and allow at least 24 hours between EMS training sessions on the same muscle group.

With proper care, gel electrode pads last 20–30 sessions. To extend pad life: always place them on clean, dry skin; store them on their protective film after each use; keep them in a sealed bag or container. Replacement pads are available in our Accessories section →

We recommend not using the device while it is charging via USB. Always fully charge the device before a session for best performance and safety.

Anti-Cellulite Devices

Tesmed anti-cellulite massagers use a patented 14-roller mechanical system that performs a triple action: lifting, kneading, and smoothing the skin. The rolling action stimulates microcirculation, encourages lymphatic drainage, and breaks down the fibrous septae responsible for the "orange peel" appearance. Unlike creams alone, the mechanical action reaches deeper tissue layers for visible results within weeks.

Most users notice visible improvement in skin texture within 4–6 weeks of regular use (3–4 sessions per week, 10–15 minutes per area). Measurable reduction in circumference is typically seen by week 8. For best results, use in combination with the Tesmed firming cream and stay well hydrated.

The massager is designed for all common cellulite-prone areas: thighs, buttocks, abdomen, hips, and upper arms. Apply light pressure and move slowly in circular or upward motions following the direction of lymphatic drainage. Full positioning guidance is included in the device manual.

The Pink and Green massagers are functionally identical — same patented 14-roller system, same Italian engineering, same results. The difference is purely aesthetic (colour). Choose your favourite or the one that suits your bathroom!
Yes — using the massager with the Tesmed Cellulite Smooth Lilla cream significantly enhances results. The cream reduces friction, improves glide, and delivers active ingredients deeper into the skin during the rolling action. We offer the Cell + Cream Bundle for the complete protocol at a better price.
