Quick Start Guide: 3 simple steps

2. START
2a

Apply the provided gel

• Apply a pea-sized amount
of conductive gel to each of
the stimulation surfaces

Turn gammaCore on
and position it on
your neck
• Turn gammaCore on
by pressing the power
button
• When gammaCore is
ready for use, the
device will beep once

3. DELIVER
3a
Adjust the intensity to the
right level
• Holding gammaCore on your neck,
increase the intensity by pressing the
upper area of the control button until
you feel a deep and strong vibration
inside your neck
• Continue to press the control
button until you also feel
some slight muscle
contractions. A downward
pulling on your lip is the
most common muscle contraction seen with
gammaCore – This indicates that gammaCore is
correctly positioned and that you have likely
reached an adequate intensity level
• If you feel discomfort, simply decrease the
intensity level by pressing the lower area of the
control button
3b

Completing the stimulation

• Hold gammaCore in place until
it beeps twice and stops
delivering the stimulation
• gammaCore will automatically stop
delivering the stimulation after 2 minutes
• Thoroughly clean the gel off stimulation
surfaces and your neck. Clean gammaCore
with a soft dry cloth and store
