7.3. RECOMMENDED
SETTINGS
The
tables
oppposite
recommendations.
There is not one programme for a
particular condition, and the best choice
varies from one person to another, even
if they have the same type of pain.
Therefore, the selection of both the
settings and the positioning of the
electrode pads should be performed on
an individual basis. You may need to try
a few positions/programmes before
finding the one that suits you.
7.4. MODE USAGE
TENS can be used for as long as it is
necessary. Continuous treatment is
fine, but the electrode pads should be
repositioned regularly (at least every 12
hours) to allow the skin to be exposed
to the air.
The Endorphin Release programmes
work better when the strength is high
enough
to
cause
contractions. Best results are achieved
with a session duration between 15 and
45 minutes. Longer use may cause
muscle ache.
8. ELECTRODE PADS
8.1. PAD POSITIONING
The electrode pads must always be
used in pairs (two electrode pads on
each channel), so that the signal can
flow in a circuit.
• TENS works one vertebra at a time.
