ELECTRODE PLACEMENT GUIDE

 

Please consult your physician for specific recommendations 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The representations above are to be used as a guide only to electrode placement. Electrode placement  should be determined 
by  and under the supervision of a trained medical professional. The electrodes should be placed directly on the pain site. The 
sensation of the stimulation should be comfortable, not just tolerable. Never allow prolonged muscle reaction such as 
twitching or spasm with stimulation.

BICEPS:  

Place the small Velcro strap around the middle of the biceps. 
Extend your arm with the palm of your hand facing up.  Draw an 
imaginary line from your middle finger along your arm to your 
shoulder.  Place one pad on one side of the imaginary line and the 
other pad on the opposite side.  Make sure there is about a ¼” gap 
between the pads.  You are now ready to adjust the unit for 
stimulation. 

 

 

 

 
TRICEPS: 

Place the small Velcro strap around the middle of the biceps or a little 
above the middle. Extend your arm downward with the palm of your 
hand facing towards the back.  Draw an imaginary line from the center 
of your elbow to the top of the shoulder. Place one of the small pads on 
one side of the imaginary line and the other small pad on the opposite 
side.  Make sure there is about a ¼” gap between the pads.  You are now 
ready to adjust the unit for stimulation. 
 
 
 
 
 
 

FOREARM: 

Extend your arm. With the palm facing upward, draw an 
imaginary line from your middle finger to the center of the 
elbow.  Place the pads, with a ¼ “ space, on either side of that 
line.  Make sure that the pads are in the center of the forearm.
