Fantastic boot! Super comfortable and love the air pump for additional ankle support. I actually put 20k steps on it the other day doing yard work and felt just fine. Highly recommended!

OrthoTens Replacement Gel Electrode Pads — 4-Pack for SM9187 & SM9187-S Wireless TENS Units
Keep your OrthoTens TENS therapy sessions performing at their best with genuine OrthoTens replacement gel electrode pads. This 4-pack is compatible with both the SM9187 (app-controlled) and SM9187-S (manual control) wireless TENS unit models, as well as a wide variety of other wireless TENS units on the market that use the same standard snap spacing.
Electrode pads lose adhesion and conductivity over time with regular use. Replacing them regularly ensures consistent electrical contact, optimal therapy intensity, and hygienic use — especially important when sharing a device between users.

When Should You Replace Your Electrode Pads?
Replace your gel electrode pads when you notice any of the following:
- Pads no longer stick firmly to the skin
- Therapy feels uneven, weaker, or produces skin irritation
- Gel surface appears dry, cracked, or discolored
- Pads have been used by multiple people (hygiene)
For regular daily users, replacing pads every 4–6 weeks is recommended to maintain optimal therapy performance.
⚠️ SAFETY NOTICE: Do not use electrode pads on broken, irritated, or infected skin. Patients with electronic implants such as a pacemaker should not use TENS therapy devices. Consult your physician before use if you have any underlying medical conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these pads fit my OrthoTens SM9187 or SM9187-S unit?
Yes. These replacement pads are designed specifically for the OrthoTens SM9187 (app-controlled) and SM9187-S (manual control) wireless TENS units. They use a standard 1⅛" snap spacing and will also fit many other wireless TENS units on the market that use the same snap distance.
How long do TENS electrode pads last?
With proper care, reusable gel electrode pads typically last 20–30 uses. To extend pad life, clean the skin before each session, store pads on their protective film after use, and avoid exposing them to excessive heat or direct sunlight. Daily users should plan to replace pads every 4–6 weeks.
Can I use these pads on any area of the body?
These pads can be placed on most muscle groups including the lower back, upper back, shoulders, knees, and abdomen. Do not place electrode pads on the head, spine, throat, or over broken or irritated skin. Always follow the placement guidelines in your OrthoTens device manual.
Does the color of the pad (black vs. white) affect performance?
No. The black and white variants are identical in function and performance. The color options are purely cosmetic so you can match your electrode pads to your OrthoTens device color (SM9187-WH white or SM9187-BK black).
Are these pads FSA or HSA eligible?
TENS unit replacement electrode pads are generally considered FSA and HSA eligible as accessories for an FDA-cleared medical device. We recommend verifying eligibility with your plan administrator, as coverage rules can vary by plan.
