HOW TO CONTROL AND REDUCE YOUR PAIN
When should you start therapy?
Use as soon as your pain begins. Start with one session (the unit
automatically turns off at 15 minutes).
Get to your pain early
If you get to your pain early, it may prevent the pain from
becoming worse, or even chronic. It’s better for you to get it under
control sooner so that it does not reach a high pain threshold where
it limits your daily activities.
How long should you use it?
Start with one 15 minute session. Always turn unit off with pads
still on. Rate your pain to check your progress, 1 low to 10 high.
Stop therapy session if pain has reduced or stopped. Press the
Power button to continue therapy for another 15 minute session.
