When should the device be used?
Use as soon as your pain begins. Start with one
session (unit automatically turns off at 30 minutes).
If you get to your pain early, it may prevent the
pain from becoming worse, or even chronic. It’s
better for you to get it under control sooner so
that it does not reach a high pain threshold
where it limits your daily activities.
Setting the intensity
Intensity is based upon your level of comfort.
Begin the first session with a low intensity and
a short duration while learning how to operate.
Intensity levels are 1-25. Use caution with
maximum intensities treatments.
DO NOT
exceed your comfort level.
How long should you use the device?
Start with one 30 minute session.
ALWAYS turn
device off with pads still on.
Stop therapy session if pain has reduced or
stopped. If your pain does not improve and you
become sore from over-use, refrain from treating
those areas for 2 days. If this issue reoccurs,
reduce the treatment time and intensity settings
for future treatment or consult a physician.
HOW TO CONTROL AND REDUCE YOUR PAIN
Recommended treatment session as follows:
You may use the device for 30 minutes per session.
You may need to use it for longer (maximum 3
times per day and maximum 90 minutes in total)
depending on the level of your pain.
CAUTION
When to stop using the device?
n
If you experienced an adverse reaction
(skin irritation/redness/burns, headache or other
painful sensation, or if you feel any unusual
discomfort).
n
If your pain does not improve, becomes
seriously chronic and severe, or continues for
more than five days.
NOTE:
If you feel pain, dizziness, discomfort or
nausea, discontinue use of device and call your
physician or medical practitioner.
What type of pain is it best for?
This therapy works best on acute pain because it
is localized. Acute pain is pain in one area for less
than 3 months. If you have chronic pain, you may
have pain in more than one area and for longer
than 6 months. Chronic pain may be compounded
by other issues that this device cannot address.
Remember this device does not cure your pain
or the original cause of the pain. It provides
temporary relief or reduction of pain so that you
can control your life and activities better.
