Rare TiogaCruiser Posted March 31, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 31, 2023 I’m receiving acupuncture for an injury and my acupuncturist is recommending I continue with heating pad treatments, or use my TENS unit or ultrasound. I know the heating pad is not allowed, so that will not be going with us. But has anyone had recent experience taking a TENS unit or ultrasound unit on a plane and onboard a ship? I’m wondering if TSA would be concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted March 31, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 31, 2023 I have been bringing my TENS unit on my travels for a number of years and have never had an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TiogaCruiser Posted March 31, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Did both of you fly, and did you put it in your carry on, or checked baggage? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have flown dozens of times with it thru numerous airports, countries, and continents. It gets packed in my carry-on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I have to fly every time. I pack it in my checked. Sometimes they get silly about the strangest things. I brought 2 iPods once and was asked why. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandiego1 Posted March 31, 2023 #7 Share Posted March 31, 2023 I put the heating pad in my checked luggage and the TENS unit in carryon when I flew to FLL. I was able to bring both on board the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted March 31, 2023 #8 Share Posted March 31, 2023 My DW puts her TENS unit in her carryon when flying but changes to luggage for boarding the ship (we always arrive a day early). Never a problem 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hllb Posted March 31, 2023 #9 Share Posted March 31, 2023 If you want to take a heating pad, there are thermacare stick on pads that do pretty well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
