Stimulation Current Therapy
Thus, the particles are named after the pole to which they migrate. The electric
charge of the active agents in the medicaments is always named by the manufac-
turer.
Treatment Procedure
(1) Use an alcoholic swab to remove cutaneous fat. Take care that there are no skin
lesions in the area of treatment.
Preparing the skin with heat before the treatment will improve its receptiveness.
(2) Apply the ointment, cover it with iontophoresis foil and put on the moistened
viscose covers with the electrode inside.
(3) Fix the electrode to the point of treatment. Moisten the viscose cover of the op-
posite electrode sufficiently with water and fix it as well.
(4) Select the current mode
the electrodes!
(5) Set the therapy time.
(6) If necessary, plug in the manual release key as therapy pause button.
(7) Slowly turn up the intensity with the intensity control <6>. The therapy time
elapses.
Warning Take care that the electrodes are by no means touched after the cur-
rent is turned up!
(8) After treatment,, an acoustic signal will be issued.
Turn the intensity down to 0.
(9) Remove the electrodes and rinse the viscose covers thoroughly.
The diffused quantity of the agent directly depends on the size of the

electrodes, the therapy time and the current intensity. During galvani-
sation the maximum current intensity is 0.1 mA on 1 cm² of active
electrode area.
The time of each treatment must always be chosen according to medicament and
size of electrodes; one treatment typically lasts 10-30 minutes.
