My wife has some fibrous cysts on her spine. Neuro blockers and opioids work but for obvious reasons she does not want to take them. The cysts have caused multiple large myofascial trigger points. She is going to start going to a physical therapist again but I was hoping we could do something at home to help as well.

You both need surgery by the sounds of it. Of course there us a risk with that being on the spine.
Look, the tens unit increases blood flow and endorphins to the area and is also a great way to maintain some tone if your laid up. But that's about it.
I understand there is also the issue of potential scar tissue for her if she has an op. For you with carpel tunnel I'd take the op all day long but I dint know what your insurance situation is I know it's hard over there
