Contra-indications

Please check with your physician before using the TENS eco 2 if one of these
apply to you:
- Patients with electronic implants such as heart pacemakers, defibrillators or pumps
- Patients with cardiac rhythm disorders
- During pregnancy
- Patients subject to seizure disorder / epilepsy
- Patients with skin disorders in the vicinity of the electrodes
- Patients with malignant diseases in the region of application

Side effects

- Pain caused by the stimulation: The stimulation can be perceived as uncomfortable/
painful if the electric current is too intensive or if the electrodes have been positioned
unfavorably. Unpleasant side effects can be avoided by adjusting the intensity,
using another program with other parameters and the possible re-positioning of the
electrodes.
- Skin intolerance which can result from the electrodes, the electrode gel or the electric
current impulses. The physician should be consulted in cases of reddening, burning,
itching or blistering under the electrodes or in the vicinity of the electrodes. Slight skin
reddening of short duration in the area of the electrodes following stimulation is quite
normal because blood circulation has been improved by the effects of the stimulation.
- Muscular pain: If the stimulation has been too intense or too long muscular aches
in terms of sore muscle can occur. Shorten the treatment time and the intensity of
stimulation at the beginning of muscle stimulation to avoid muscle ache.
