i) Please make sure you are increasing the
intensity high enough. Most people will start
to feel the stimulation in their hand at around
25 mA and with the probe inserted you will
need to increase the intensity higher to
around 40 mA
– 60 mA. Max power is 99 mA.
Everyone is different so just keep increasing
the intensity until you can feel it. The intensity
increases in very small steps of 1 mA.

previously damaged or desensitised

The current flows from one side of the probe to
the other, so it is not possible to have one side
“not working”. However, the strength of the

the current flows, and also in which direction it
flows relative to the nerve. You can try slightly
adjusting the position on the probe, or
exchanging the connection of the wires in the
probe.

stronger. Always return strength to zero after
disconnecting the lead or the probe.
