its name implies, is one of on and off.

Modulation is when the frequency sweeps across range of settings. This enables the body to receive
many different signals and can be very beneficial and lessen any effect of accommodation.
WARNING

muscle tone and exercise goals. Inappropriate settings could cause discomfort, undesired muscle
balance, or even muscle injury.
