Important: for all of these programs, stimulation intensity must be set
between the threshold of impulse perception and the moment in which the
impulse starts to cause discomfort. With the exception of the “periarthritis”
program, the muscles surrounding the area to be treated must not contract,
they should only produce slight “vibrations”.
N.B. read the specific instructions on Tens 17 for the periarthritis program.
