The purpose of this study was to find the effects of the frequncy-intensity of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation(TENS) on the grip strength and to find the effects of pain relieve through visual analogue scale(VAS) in the tennis elbow patients(man:18, women:22) the measurment of grip strength of hand was taken by Jammar Dynamometer, and the measuement of pain performed by Vas 7 times during 12 days. The result of this study were as follow: 1. The result of change grip strength and VAS by before and after treatment were followed. In case grip strength low frequncy-low intensity, low frequncy-high intensity, high frequncy-low intensity groups were significantly increased after 1 times treatment, high frequncy-high intensity group were significantly increased after 3 times treatment. In case pain low frequncy-high intensity, high frequncy-low intensity groups were significantly increased after 1 times treatment, low frequncy-low intensity, high frequncy-high intensity groups were significantly increased after 2 times treatment. 2. The result of change grip strength and pain by treatment condition were followed. high frequncy-low intensity groups was increased more grip strength than other group, and high frequncy-low intensity group was increased more pain decrease than other group. but statically there was no significant change.
