The treatment stops after the treatment timer reaches zero. You can also stop or
interrupt the treatment by decreasing the intensity to zero.

Table 1: Information in the detailed view
Some information on the detailed view:
In the detailed view you can recall treatment values like shown in the table above.
The time shown is the treatment time and it is decreased in steps of seconds. When
the treatment timer reaches zero, the unit stops the treatment and the intensity is set
to zero.
The values for voltage (U) and current (I) can be used as an indicator for the
following therapies. We are not able to give information about the absolute values
of voltage and current because each patient reacts differently sensible to the
current.
A common value for muscle contraction is between 100 – 200 mA. This setting
should result in a contraction of both thights, visible and noticable by the patient.
The patient’s resistance (R) gives information about the electric conductivity of the
system. The resistance should fit to the area of 30 – 200 Ohms. The reason for a
resistance greater than 200 Ohms may be:
•
No Aloe Vera was used to moisten the electrodes
•
Bad contact because of oil and/or creme on the skin
