Pain in the cervical spine
Programme 5, 7
Pain in the cervical spine often occurs together
with inflexibility of the head and tense muscles.
The discomfort usually radiates into the shoulder
area. The treatment is practical when placing the
electrodes onto the cervical spine muscles, as
shown in picture 4.
If pain is felt on the whole cervical spine, or if the
pain radiates into both shoulders, it is of benefit
to place the electrodes of both channels onto the
body, as shown in picture 4 and 5.
Shoulder pain
Programme 1, 3, 7
Shoulder pain can radiate from the shoulder joint
or from the surrounding structures. To treat this
pain, one electrode is placed on the skin above
the front side of the armpit, and the other one
is placed above the back side of the armpit, as
shown in picture 6.
Shoulder - Arm - Pain
Programme 1, 7
If the pain radiates into the shoulder and arm,
then one electrode is placed onto the main pain
area of the shoulder, and the other electrode is
put onto the end of the pain area on the arm, just
as far as the pain reaches and radiates, as shown
in picture 7.
