2. How your KOOL Patch works
Stress leads to tightness and muscle tension.
Especially severely affected are the following
areas of the body:
■ The transition area from the neck to the
trapezius muscle containing a variety of
muscles and nerves.
■ The trapezius muscles extend from the back
of the head to the shoulder blade and from
the shoulder joint to the outer part of the col-
larbone. Additionally the trapezius muscles
are connected to the spinous processes of
some cervical vertebrae and the thoracic
vertebrae.
■ The area at the center of the back, con-
taining likewise a variety of muscles and
nerves.
■ The abdominal region between the breast-
bone and navel.
Transcutaneous (conducted via the skin) electri-
cal nerve stimulation is a method that allows the
results of stress to be alleviated.
A microprocessor-controlled relaxation program
conducts current-induced stimuli of different
intensity levels via electrodes that are affixed
onto the skin to the nervous system. These
stimuli are not painful. You will only feel a slight
tingling sensation on the skin.
With daily applications of just 30 minutes for
each stimulation area, you will experience
pleasant relief after only 10 days.
■ Your KOOL Patch stimulates nerves in the
affected regions of the body and this way
easily and effectively reduces the sensation
of pain caused by stress-related tension and
tightness.
■ You will be able to move freely and wear the
KOOL Patch underneath your clothing.
■ Once the effects of stress have been allevi-
ated, you will feel fit and relaxed, and you
will sleep better.
