NEMS15 • Sequential tonic contractions upper limbs and trunks (non-medical
program)
NEMS16 • Sequential tonic contractions lower limbs (non-medical program)
This program increases microcirculation within and around the muscle fibers
treated creating rhythmic contractions, fostering better drainage and toning. It
can also be applied to older people to improve blood and lymphatic circulation
in the lower limbs (e.g. applying CH1 to the right calf, CH2 to the right thigh).
These programs can be carried out using self-adhesive electrodes.
Session duration: 18 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo from 01 to 23 (21 excluded) of the Positions
manual.
Intensity: enough to produce good muscle contractions during the treatment,
but not enough to cause any soreness. It mainly works on slow-twitch fibers.
NEMS17 • Sequential phasic contractions upper limbs and trunks (non-
medical program)
NEMS18 • Sequential phasic contractions lower limbs (non-medical program)
This program produces rhythmic contractions with a stimulation frequency
typical of fast-twitch fibers. Thanks to this stimulation frequency, it is suitable
for increasing sequentially muscle strength. The programs produce sequential
phasic contractions on both channels. Unlike the previous program, this one
uses a higher stimulation frequency during the contraction phase and
therefore works mainly on fast-twitch fibers.
Session duration: 18 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo from 01 to 23 (21 excluded) of the Positions
manual.
Intensity: enough to produce good muscle contractions during the treatment,
but not enough to cause any soreness.
NEMS19 • Muscle relaxant (non-medical program)
Can be used for all sports, after competitions or after the most demanding
training sessions, in particular after long and intense exertion - to be used
immediately after exertion. This program helps drainage and capillarization,
improving muscle oxygenation and helping to discharge synthetic substances
produced during exertion.
Session duration: 30 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo from 01 to 20 in the Positions manual.
Intensity: medium-low, increased during the last 10 minutes of the session.
