How to Manage and Reduce Your Pain
When should I start therapy?
Use as soon as your pain begins. Start with
one 30-minute session. Always turn the
device 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 I use it?
Start with one 30-minute session. Always
turn the device 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.
Caution
• Do not use to treat one region for
extended periods of time (more than
one 30-minute session, up to 3 times/
day). Muscles in that region may
become exhausted and sore.
When to stop using the device?
Stop using the device:
• If you experienced an adverse reaction
(skin irritation/redness/burns, headache or
other painful sensation, or if you feel any
unusual discomfort).
• If your pain does not improve, becomes
seriously chronic and severe, or continues
for more than 5 days.
Remember, the device 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.
If the pain continues, consult your
healthcare professional.
