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.
