EASY STEPS TO GET STARTED WITH YOUR THERAPY WITH ELECTRODE PADS

19

Place electrodes on clean, dry and healthy skin at 

least 2 in. apart and do not let them touch. Make 

sure there is a linear path between the two 

electrodes. (See the pages 22-23).

Note: Replace the electrodes when they are 

damaged or dirty, when they have lost their 

adhesive power or when stimulation becomes 

uncomfortable, i.e. when you experience an 

unpleasant stinging or biting sensation.
