TENS therapy for leg blood flow in healthy adults
Part of Heart & circulation, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation (TENS) applied to the leg muscles and nerve clusters can improve blood flow behind the knee. It looks at immediate effects and might help understand better ways to support circulation.

This trial tests three different electrical stimulation foot pad programs to see how they affect blood flow in the legs of healthy adults. It may help improve leg health by using mild electrical pulses on the feet.
This trial tests whether combining blood flow restriction with mild electrical nerve stimulation can improve ankle and leg movement after a stroke. It may help you if you had a single stroke more than 6 months ago and can walk a short distance on your own.
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation on the arms can increase blood flow. It may help people with circulation problems.
This trial studies whether applying heat to your legs can improve symptoms and function in people with peripheral artery disease (reduced blood flow to the legs). You may be tested with a simple blood-flow check and an MRI scan, depending on eligibility.
This study tests if a gentle electrical stimulation method called TENS can help people who have lost a leg below or above the knee feel more natural sensations in their missing limb and reduce phantom limb pain.
This study tests if a combination of a behavioral program and electrical stimulation (TENS) can help people with peripheral artery disease walk farther with less pain. It aims to boost physical activity and quality of life.
