A device is disclosed which couples the use of Trans Epithelial Nerve Stimulation with the administration of a therapeutic injection, such as an immunization, or tissue sampling procedure such as deriving a blood sample. By such an arrangement the discomfort associated with these procedures may be considerably reduced or eliminated, thereby improving compliance with a range of medical procedures. To date TENS has not been used in such an arrangement, rather development in TENS technology has been aimed at improving its efficacy. Similarly injection technology developments have been orientated around reducing cross infection risks and accidental injury to operator or patient.
