Compex Mini Wireless Muscle Stimulator Review 2020

★ Compex Mini Wireless Muscle Stimulator at the Compex online store: www.trailandkale.com/go/compe...
💪🏼The Compex Mini Wireless Muscle Stimulator with TENS is a serious tool for anyone looking to up their strength and recovery game while saving themselves time.
I love that this muscle stimulator can be used during a home fitness workout with the resistance setting, or while watching tv with the recovery massage setting or TENS pain management setting. When I used to suffer from achilles tendonitis, I would use the Compex TENS setting to relieve any pain in the region after running. It worked so well, and allowed me to recover my achilles tendonitis while still running gently.
The unit is also very small and portable which makes it the perfect companion to take with you to trail races or the gym for post exercise recovery routines.
👉🏼This unit is one of my top 20 hacks/tools that I use to make me a stronger trail runner, you can read that article here: www.trailandkale.com/tips/the...

FYI - pressing the + and - buttons on Pod 1 adjusts the intensity of both pods simultaneously (same as pressing the + and - button in the app). You can't balance the pod intensity independently. In fact, there is only a + and - button on Pod 1. You should correct this inaccuracy, as if someone keeps pressing the + or - button, they are simply increasing the intensity on both pods which will not have the effect you describe.

Great 👍 review

[@trailandkale]

Thank you!

[@ultratepe]

Nice video, do you know that running time after fully charged? What's the weight of the carrying case with all in there, how long it takes to change them. Thank you

[@carlosito6377]

Thanks🎉

[@trailandkale]

Welcome 😊

[@LeinonenHannu]

You wrote on Compex sports review "It (mini) has fewer levels and operates at a lower intensity, ...." How does lower intensity affect? Is compex sport more powerful? Does it work you muscles harder?

[@teomercioniu3239]

hi, can you achieve hyperthropia in ur quads just by going up the level but not squating ?(patient lying on Bed)

[@markdeckys]

What is your opinion on EMS vs percussive massagers? I notice you have previously briefly reviewed the compex massage gun. What do you get the greater efficacy from?Lastly, have you had success with potentiation for warming up before a run/race? Is it sufficient for a good warm up?

[@trailandkale]

Hey there, percussive is great for massaging out knots - similar to actually going to a sports masseuse. ESTIM is really good for activating blood flow like before a race for example which does work very well. It’s also a great way to massage muscles after intense effort because you can just sit there and relax 😊 I also love the strength (resistance) setting on the ESTIM.

[@markdeckys]

@@trailandkale cheers buddy

[@FCBasel-iu2vv]

Hi T&K, Just came across your review, I am pretty new to these devices, wondering if you are still using this particular device, I am ultra distance runner and was considering either one of these devices or the air compression trousers any advice or experience using these devices for runners? thanks in advance

[@trailandkale]

Hey there! Yes I still use this Compex regularly - love it so much. The sport elite 3 is also excellent but it’s wired - I reviewed it in trailandkale.com if you’re interested in learning more about that unit

[@SandwichSandwichSandwich]

Hello, do you find that the 6 programs are sufficient for your purposes compared to the greater number of programs available on the wired devices you have used in the past? Specifically, you talk of using the wireless device for “recovery massage” - do you know how this differs from the “massage” function on the wired devices? My primary interest is in releasing leg muscles after exercise. They tend to tighten up to protect an injured knee, plus I get fluid build-up around the patella.

[@trailandkale]

Hey 👋🏼 to be honest they work fine for me. If the exact program for a specific muscle group isn’t there, then I’ll use the closest one I can find and I still get the benefits of the tens, or massage function

[@annap1191]

Thanks for the video. Can you use it for the upper trapezius and rhomboids?

[@trailandkale]

I don’t see why not

[@SproutyPottedPlant]

So cool! I wonder what is inside? The programmes seem way more interesting than a cheap generic TENS/EMS would have.

[@trailandkale]

clever stuff :)

[@iftomatosareafruitwhyisntk4038]

I can’t find anyone in the uk that sells this unit?

[@danielcarchi1857]

Hi, are you able to use this on the shoulder area? I’m specifically asking for the supraspinatous muscle.

[@trailandkale]

Hey you can absolutely use this on your shoulder area - please check with Compex for specific muscles however, but I don't see why you couldn't reach the supraspinatus muscle even though it's small.

[@Believeinquads]

I have chronic sore hamstring and tight post runs, active recover work best for that or tens?

[@trailandkale]

Try active recovery, but also use a foam roller and make sure you do proper pre and post run stretching: www.trailandkale.com/tips/best-stretches-for-runners/

[@tarheel]

Adjusting the + and - on the other power unit changes both units and not just the one. Unless I am missing something, but I don’t see it. Wish the power can be adjusted separately like the compex 6.0 or 8.0.

[@trailandkale]

Hi Chow, you're right. A viewer corrected my mistake there in the comments a while ago.

[@ranlikegel]

Does the phone app only work with the wireless stimulator? Or does it work with the other stimulators?

[@trailandkale]

I believe the app is just for the Compex Mini Wireless

[@mick7909]

Yeah sadly only works with the new mini .... I tried this with my order set and didn't unfortunately as the wireless controller is a bit of a pain.

[@unnegro]

Hi What about compex mini vs 3.0 sport elite?

[@trailandkale]

Here’s my full review of the Sport Elite 3: www.trailandkale.com/gear/compex-review-muscle-stimulator-tens/

[@mwtrolle]

does it have a program for tennis and golf elbow?

[@trailandkale]

I guess the tens setting would work well for this

[@michamalinski6706]

What program you use for achilles tendonits?

[@trailandkale]

I use the tens function

[@alep8985]

Hi, where do you place the electrodes for the achilles tendinitis?

[@trailandkale]

I have just the video for you! Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGKUaatjideMrK8

[@alep8985]

Thanks a lot. I tried them once but I am not getting the same feeling I get when the fisio use his Tens. I will try again. On a separate note, how do you regulate the power of each side independently? The unit with the + and - controls both

[@Craig0935]

How often do you need to replace the pads?

[@trailandkale]

Every couple of months depending on usage

[@mick7909]

It also depends on how naturally oily your skin is and how much body hair you have. if you have naturally oily skin and you can make the pants last longer if you wash your skin first.... I'm actually still using a set of pads which are now getting close to 4 months.

[@veragondim9225]

Amazing . I want to this . I live Brasil 🇧🇷

Hi there, I own a small physio company in Ireland just wondering if u could send us one of them that u don’t use ???? We are a volentry group and need some help atm

I can’t pair my pods, any help please?

[@trailandkale]

Their user guide may be able to help: s3.amazonaws.com/assets.compex.com/ifus/COMPEX+MINI_IFU.pdf Other than that try removing some paired devices from your phone, there can be a limit of current bluetooth connections on some smartphones

It’s a yes from me 👍🏼
