Note:
The following recommendations are only guidelines and must of course be
adapted to the patient's individual situation.
Modes
1. Capacitive mode: For use in the case of structures at the surface, such as
muscles.
2. Resistive mode: For use in the case of deeper structures, such as tendons
and ligaments.
Frequencies
460 kHz capacitive/resistive
540 kHz capacitive/resistive

Treatment time:
Dosage:
Note:
3 electrodes in each case for capacitive application and resistive application in
different sizes:
L/M: for applications over larger areas
S:
for applications over smaller areas
If possible, the common electrode should be placed below the area to be
treated.
If the therapy is conducted with 2 movable electrodes, the common electrode
becomes an active treatment electrode in this mode.
Optimal energy transfer can only be guaranteed in connection with the special
conductive ThermoTK cream.
ThermoTK cream makes it possible for the therapist to optimally slide the
electrode on the skin; it is very skin-compatible and can also be used on very
sensitive skin.
Depending on the size of the treatment area and the disease state, the
recommended treatment time is between 10 and 20 minutes.
The dosage should create a gentle warming feeling and depends on the
patient's subjective perception.
The patient should be carefully monitored during the therapy.
