After Your Training Session; Pain Programme - TensCare Unicare Mode D'emploi

14.5. AFTER YOUR
SESSION
When the timer reaches zero, your
session is complete, and the unit
turns off.
1) Check that the control unit is off.
If it is not, hold down the OFF
button to switch off then remove
the probe from your vagina by
holding the positioning end rim
and gently pulling outwards.
If you are using the pointer,
detach this first before removing
the probe.
2) Wash and thoroughly dry the
probe and return it to the storage
pouch.
3) The Unicare will not only improve
your pelvic floor muscles but also
help you to recognise the correct
sensation you need to feel when
doing your
(explained in section 4.2.).
Note: When removing the
probe, DO NOT PULL ON THE
LEAD WIRE.

15. PAIN PROGRAMME

In order to obtain the best relief, the
pads need to be placed over the
dermatomes T10, T11 and T12, which
are the nerve roots that supply the
sensory fibres to the uterus. These
dermatomes wrap
body, but do not quite meet up at
the front. They run from around waist

around the
height at the back down to the
groin area at the front.
As each person's body is different,
the Unicare is supplied with pads
which are large enough to be
effective even if not located exactly
over all three dermatomes. When
the pads are placed correctly the
Unicare will work very well.
Therefore, if after thirty minutes
considerable relief has not been
achieved, either move the pads
slightly or try one of the other pad
positioning areas.
There are THREE positions where the
pads can be placed for maximum
benefit. It is recommended that the
positions are tried in the following
order until maximum
obtained:
• On the lower back
• On the front, in a vertical format
• On the front, in a diagonal format
Please refer to the diagrams below:
On the lower back:
Place the pads
vertically either
side of the spine,
approximately
10cms (4 inches)
apart, with the
bottom of the
electrodes no
higher than the
top of your
buttocks. The "pigtails" should hang
down from the pads.
