10.2 Setup for the underarms
Prior to applying the axillary electrode, clean skin areas. Remove ointments,
creams, and cosmetics.
For hygienic reasons, the sponge pad should only be used by one person.
To avoid possible current-induced skin damage, the silicone-graphite electrode
must be completely and firmly pushed into the sponge pad sleeve.
Before starting a treatment session, thoroughly soak the sponge pad and
do not
wring them out!
To ensure current flow, the sponge pad must be soaking wet.
It might be necessary to re-soak them during the course of a treatment session.
If necessary, simply pause treatment and soak the sponge pad again.
When ready, insert the moistened sponge pad sleeves, with the connector
cables pointing to the front, under your arms. Keep them in place by applying
slight pressure with your arms. If possible, avoid abrupt movements during the
treatment, since these can cause
current fluctuations.
Should you experience irregular
tingling or a strong burning sensation,
soak the sponge pouches again and
lower the power level.
Tip:
You can wrap a towel around your
chest and protect yourself from the
leaking water.
Note
It is imperative that after every treatment you keep the sponge pads clean and
pull the electrodes out of the pads for drying. Do not store the silicone-graphite
electrodes in the sponge pad sleeves.
