The application examples imaged on pages 28 and 29 show standards concerning
the positioning of the adhesive electrodes. Since everybody responds differently to
electrical nerve stimulation, it is very important to choose the correct position for
the adhesive electrodes in cooperation and in accordance with your physician in
order to ensure successful stimulation of muscles and pain treatment.
Generally any programme may be applied on the parts of the body pictured above.
Successful treatment is decisive for the proper selection of the most suitable
programmes.
Position the adhesive electrodes above and below (or to the left and to the right of)
the area of pain. Avoid applying the electrodes directly on the pain centre! It is
important that the stimulation current can flow through the area of pain! Unless
instructed otherwise by your physician, we recommend an average therapy duration
of 30 minutes up to 3 times a day.
The sense of intensity may actually depend on the respective daily constitution.
Therefore, the user may adjust the intensity to his/her personal needs using the
intensity control.
Further application examples can be found in specialist books.
Warning:
Before application, please read and follow the operating instructions
and, above all, the respective safety instructions on pages 5 - 10!
