EMS
EMS is a method for muscle conditioning. It uses a
device and electrodes placed on the skin.
The electrodes are placed near the muscle to be
stimulated. The device generates electrical pulses and
passes these pulses across the surface of the skin to
activate the underlying motor nerves.
This makes the muscle contract. Contraction helps
to condition the muscle. You can choose from
5 pre-set EMS programs. In each program, you can
adjust the intensity of the pulse.
Pre-set programs
The device comes with 15 pre-set programs for
TENS and 5 pre-set programs for EMS. The order of
the programs in the list does not mean that certain
programs are more suitable for specific conditions
than others. As the effect of a treatment program
may strongly differ from person to person, we advise
you to try out different treatment programs to find
out which one works best for you.
Program overview
Conventional TENS programs
Conventional TENS programs deliver
high-frequency stimulation. Their working mechanism is
based on the Gate Control Theory. This theory states
that stimulation blocks the transmission of pain signals.
It is similar to rubbing away pain. Most people use
conventional TENS for 30 minutes per session.
You can use it as often and as long as it feels
comfortable. You will notice the effect most clearly
during use. The effect generally wears off rather quickly
after use. Adjust the intensity so that you clearly feel the
pulses. Treatment must not feel unpleasant or painful.
