Setting of intensity levels
Do not try to achieve a higher and higher level of intensity. Set the intensity in such a way that
you get a comfortable feeling during the stimulation. Increase the intensity carefully to a
maximum tolerable and then reduce it slightly step by step to a comfortable level.
Note that the intensity settings change depending on the stimulation area and the time. This is
normal and can be explained as follows:
•
Resistance of the skin:
Dry skin has a lower conductivity level than damp skin (due to sweating). The skin does not
show the same resistance to linear current on all parts of the body. For example, the
resistance level of horny skin can be twice that of the skin in the hollow of the knee. The
innervation differs greatly according to the area of the body. This results in a difference of
sensitivity.
•
Volume of the muscle mass:
If you stimulate muscles with a high volume you will automatically need to set a higher
intensity than for the stimulation of small muscles.
•
Muscle fatigue:
A tired muscle will only tolerate a lower intensity.
•
Age of electrodes:
Self-adhesive electrodes do not last forever. You can use them up for up to 60 stimulation
sessions. This depends on the quality of the electrodes but also on the skin of the user. Old
electrodes have a higher resistance and their conductivity levels decline. It is important to
replace electrodes regularly.
•
Adaption to the current:
The nerves adapt rapidly to the current. It is normal to feel “less current” after a few minutes
of stimulation with specific parameters. In such a case feel free to increase the intensity in
order to get the best results.
•
Frequency and pulse width:
Frequencies and pulse widths differ depending on the programs. Therefore the intensity
cannot be set at the same lever for all the programs even if the electrodes are placed in the
same position. The higher the frequency is set, the lower you will be able to set the
intensity.
The higher the pulse width is set, the lower you will be able to set the intensity.
