performing the therapy by briefly pushing the green ON/OFF button on the device until the desired 
username is displayed on the screen. 

 

 
 
 
 

 

Steps 1 & 2: Measure Your Hand Strength for Each Hand  

 

 
 
 
 

 

Step 1: Right Hand   

 

Place the Zona Plus™ in your right hand.

 

 

Briefly squeeze (3 second countdown) as hard as 
you can with your right hand then relax.  

 

Stop squeezing when STOP displays. 

 

Rest for 5 seconds (countdown will show).  

 

Step 2: Left Hand  

 

Place the Zona Plus™ in your left hand. 

 

Briefly squeeze (3 second countdown) as hard as 
you can with your left hand then relax.  

 

Stop squeezing when STOP displays. 

 

Rest for 5 seconds (countdown will show).  

 

 

Steps 3-6: Perform the Therapy  

 

Step 3: Right Hand 

 

 

Place the Zona Plus™ in your right hand. 

 

Squeeze the Zona Plus™ just enough to display 
“HOLD” on  the screen, and maintain the 
pressure constantly while the timer on the Zona 
Plus™ display counts down from 120 seconds to 
0.  

 

If you are squeezing the correct amount, the 
display will tell you to “HOLD”.  

 

If the display does not show “HOLD”, the display 
will tell you if you need to “Squeeze More” or 
“Squeeze Less”.  

 

At the end of the 120 second countdown, you will 
see “Rest” and then a 60 second “Rest” 
countdown will start during which you relax by 
holding the device loosely in your hand.  

 

Place the Zona Plus™ in your left hand during the 
rest period in preparation for Step 4.  

 

 

Tip: 

It is important to squeeze as hard as you can during steps 1 and 2; but, don’t 

worry, you will not be squeezing at full strength during steps 3 - 6 of the therapy. 

The hand 

indicators at the 

bottom of the 

screen will show 

you which hand to 

hold the device.

 

The more lines 

you see the 

farther you are 

from your target 

pressure.

 

If you see “HOLD” 
you are squeezing 

with the perfect 

amount of

 

pressure. Don’t 

change

 

anything!

 

Tip: 

If two people are using the same device, establishing separate user accounts 

allows you to not only track your results separately but also allows you to store 
personal device preferences such as volume, screen brightness and even reminder 
alarms unique to each user.
