An ultramodern and innovative combination device for electrotherapy and 

ultrasound therapy. 

Soleo

 

Stim 

An ultramodern and innovative electrotherapy device. 

Soleo Sono 

An ultramodern and innovative ultrasound therapy device. 

 

Note: 

The operation of Soleo Sono is described in a separate set of instructions. 

 

 

What does the 

Soleoline do? 

Output of monophasic, biphasic and medium frequency currents for nerve 

stimulation and muscle therapy for mono channel and dual channel operation 

as well as output of therapeutic ultrasound. 

 

 

What are the 

advantages of 

Soleoline

A clear contemporary colour screen showing all parameters necessary for 

therapy as well as modern touch control. 

Individual programme start configuration and clear, simple menu navigation 

make operation of the device easy and comfortable for users. 

 

The combination of electrotherapy and ultrasound therapy in a single system 

enables the use of the established Combined therapy. 

 

The compact design saves room in the practice and is highly suited for use in 

home visits. 

 

 

Innovations in 

Soleoline

SonoSwing, the innovation in the field of ultrasound therapy: 

 

a single ultrasound head with two frequencies 0,8MHz and 2,4 MHz 

 

freely selectable penetration depths using percentage adjustment of the 

frequency ratios. 

 

 

Note: 

The device should only be used by medical specialists (e.g. doctors, 

therapists and health paraprofessionals).
