Contra-indication
Please check with your physician before using the TENStem eco basic
if one of these apply to you:
- Patients with electronic implants such as heart pacemakers, defibrillators
or pumps
- Patients with cardiac rhythm disorders
- During pregnancy
- Patients subject to seizure disorder / epilepsy
- Patients with skin disorders in the vicinity of the electrodes
- Patients with malignant diseases in the region of application
Side effects
- Pain caused by the stimulation: The stimulation can be perceived as uncom-
fortable/painful if the electric current is too intensive or if the electrodes
have been positioned unfavorably. Unpleasant side effects can be avoided
by adjusting the intensity, using another program with other parameters
and the possible re-positioning of the electrodes.
- Skin intolerance which can result from the electrodes, the electrode gel or
the electric current impulses. The physician should be consulted in cases
of reddening, burning, itching or blistering under the electrodes or in the
vicinity of the electrodes. Slight skin reddening of short duration in the area
of the electrodes following stimulation is quite normal because blood circu-
lation has been improved by the effects of the stimulation.
- Muscular pain: If the stimulation has been too intense or too long muscular
aches in terms of sore muscle can occur. Shorten the treatment time and
the intensity of stimulation at the beginning of muscle stimulation to avoid
muscle ache.
