STANDARD ICES Protocols (B5-C5, P2, A9, Omni-8) are generally used by people for a very
wide range of applications, from chronic pain to orthopedic injury to peripheral nerve
dysfunction. The model M includes all of the newest protocols currently under scientific
investigation as well as the older legacy protocols that have been used in older systems.
•
These protocols all include a sequence of modes, starting with 5 pps (bipolar pulses) for
several minutes, followed by short bursts of 100 pps in both positive and negative
polarity, or a mix of the two (5 pps and 100 pps). These patterns were developed to
emulate the neural impulses in developing musculoskeletal system
in utero
and are
hypothesized to signal tissue growth and development.
•
Bob’s opinion: it is difficult to tell the difference in biological effectiveness between
these in controlled scientific experiments. They all have similar effects. Most people
report that the newer protocols (Omni-8 and B5-C5) *may* be 10% to 15% better than
the older protocols (P2 and A9). But most people have a preference, so you can
experiment with them to see what works best for you. Each one also has an optional 5
minute rest period at the end of each cycle.
•
If you are completely lost and cannot decide, consider starting with the B5-C5, the
OMNI-8 or either of these with 5 minute REST option.
