How to Manage and Reduce Your Pain
When should I start therapy?
Use as soon as your pain begins. Start with
1 session (the unit automatically turns off
after 30 minutes). Turn off with pads still on
the skin.
Get to your pain early
If you get to your pain early, it may prevent
the pain from becoming worse, or even
chronic. It's better for you to get it under
control sooner so that it does not reach a
high pain threshold where it limits your daily
activities.
How long should you use it?
Start with one 30 minute session. Always
turn the unit off with pads still on the skin.
Rate your pain before and after the therapy
to check your progress, 1 low to 10 high.
Stop therapy session if pain has reduced or
stopped.
See precautions on page 9. Long-
time treatment and strong stimulation
may cause muscular fatigue and may
generate adverse effects.
When to stop using the unit?
1. If you experienced an adverse reaction
(skin irritation/redness/burns, headache
or other painful sensation, or if you feel
any unusual discomfort).
2. If your pain does not improve, becomes
seriously chronic and severe, or
continues for more than 5 days.
Remember, the unit does not cure original
cause of the pain. It provides temporary
relief or reduction of pain so that you can
control your life and activities better.
