More specifically, the Alleva-Wave can be used to accelerate tissue recovery following surgical procedures, promote faster
tissue recovery following injuries (from sports, daily activities, work, etc.), and reduce chronic swelling in tissues. An
important application is the reduction of joint pain, whether chronic or from injury.
Description of the Alleva-Wave P2 System
System Components
The P2 system has the following major components:
1
Pulse generator
Creates precisely controlled electrical pulses that power the coils.
2
9-volt battery
Supplies power to the pulse generator.
3
Coils
Transmits electromagnetic pulses into the tissue being
stimulated. Each of the two coils has a bumpy side and a smooth
side, for easy orientation.
4
Battery charger (not shown) optional
Recharges the 9-volt battery when the battery is not being used
in the pulse generator.

The pulse generator has the following components. Many of these are explained in more detail in the following manual sections:
1
Connector for coils
Receives the plug for the cabling to the coils.
2
1
2
Upper green LED
Indicates the system is generating pulses in Stimulation Mode during
operation.
3
2
Center yellow LED
Indicates the system is running power-up diagnostics before
operation or is in Rest Mode during operation.
2
Lower red LED
Indicates there is a problem with the system that is not serviceable by
the user.

3
Cycle profile switch
Allows you to select from among four cycle profiles, which define how
the pulse generator outputs the stimulation pulses. The cycle profiles are indicated by 0, 1, 2, 3:
0 = power is OFF; no fields are generated
1 = standard intensity fields are generated, including rest periods in cycle 2 =
higher intensity fields are generated, including rest periods in cycle
3 = higher intensity fields are generated continuously, with no rest periods
4 Socket for 9-volt battery with polarity indicators
Holds the 9 -volt battery. The positive (+) and negative (-) polarity markings on the socket indicate how to
insert the battery to properly align its positive and negative terminals.
Theory of Operation
Pulse generator
The Alleva-Wave system promotes tissue recovery through the application of precisely generated magnetic stimulation pulses
which are created by the pulse generator. The stimulation pulses are designed with proprietary combinations of frequencies,
amplitudes, field directions, and wave shapes to activate tissue recovery at a cellular level.
