Start the therapy by pushing the buttons [
▲
] and [
▼
], where you can set the
intensity. The left pair of buttons sets the channel 1; the right pair sets channel 2.
The treatment starts with an intensity of 1 mA. For safety reasons it is not possible
to change both channels at one time.
Adjust the intensity, with the buttons [
▲
] and [
▼
] so that you can clearly feel the
stimulation. Probably you can feel the muscle contraction at the area where the
electrodes are placed. The therapy and stimulation shall not be painful, so therefore
reduce the intensity, if needed. With [
P
] the running stimulation can always be
stopped! Depending on the application area, the electrodes of channel 1 and 2
may be felt differently in strength. This is why you can adjust them separately.
The treatment use is usually limited to 30 minutes. Try to finish the treatment units,
because only after 20 minutes a significant pain reducing effect will appear. After
the programme has reached the end of 30 minutes, it automatically switches to
intensity of 0 and into “ready mode”.
As long as no discomfort or skin irritation occurs with, you can use the treatment
several times a day.
Advice!
With many programmes, a feeling of customization occurs. The current feel-
ing reduces, and a higher intensity can be used, as long as it is pleasant and not painful.
