2. TRANSCUTANEOUS NEUROSTIMULATION INFORMATION

The device works on the principle of transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS), 
which enables you to relieve pain and soothe muscle tension. This device also helps to promote 
venous return and to strengthen the muscle mass. The device has been specially designed to be 
used at home. Transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS) is a non-analgesic drug therapy 

the nerves. This stimulation brings the body to produce and disseminate endogenous analgesic-
painkilling substances (endorphins, enkephaline) whose function is to anesthetize the pain.
In case of pain or muscle tension, mini-electrical impulses in the nervous tissue may block the 
transmission of pain signals to the nervous system and trigger the release of endorphins. You 
can choose your programme among 11 preset TENS protocols on theapplication.  
For the strengthening of your muscle mass, you can select a programme among 8 protocols 
of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). The electrical stimulator sends, via the electrodes placed 

zones helps you to position the electrodes correctly (see paragraph 10).
The application (Mytens) is available on the App Store or Google play. The app operates on IOS, 
 Android platforms (IOS 8.0, Android 5.0).

Intended use

The device designed to be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching 
muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, upper extremities (arm), and lower extremities (leg) 
due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities. It should be applied to normal, 
healthy, dry and clean skin of adult patients. And is to be used for stimulate healthy muscles in 
order to improve and facilitate muscle performance.

Contraindication

Do not use this device with the following medical devices:
-Implanted electronic medical devices, such as pacemakers. This may cause electric shock, burns, 
or death.
-Electronic life support equipment, such as respirators.
-Electronic medical devices worn on the body, such as electrocardiographs.
If you use this device together with other electronic medical devices, these devices may not work 
correctly.
