SAFETY INFORMATION
1.1 General Introduction
Thank you very much for using our Nerve Muscle Stimulator. For you use
this device safely, please read this user manual carefully before your first
use.
Please keep this user manual with your device for future reference.
This device ¡s a portable electrotherapy device, featuring three therapeutic
modes: Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS), Electrical
Muscle Stimulation (EMS) and Massage, which are used for pain relief and
electrical muscle stimulation. The stimulator sends gentle electrical current
to underlying nerves and muscle group vía electrodos applied on the skin.
The parameters of the device are controlled by the buttons on the touch
screen panel. The intensity level is adjustable according to the needs of
the individual user.
EXPLANATION OF TENS
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a noninvasive,
drug free method of controlling pain. TENS uses tiny electrical impulses
sent through the skin to nerves to modify your pain perception. TENS does
not work for everyone. However, in most patients it is effective in reducing
or eliminating the pain, allowing for a retum to normal activity.
01
EXPLANATION OF EMS
Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) is an intemationally accepted and
proven way of treating muscular injuries. It works by sending electronic
pulses to the muscle needing treatment; this causes the muscle to
exercise passively. This device has low frequency and in conjunction with
the square wave pattem allows direct work on muscle groupings. This is
widely used in hospitals and sports clinics for the treatment of muscular
injuries and for the reeducation of paralyzed muscles, to prevent atrophy
in affected muscles and improving muscle tone and blood circulation.
TENS:
The device is designed to be used for temporary relief of pain associated
with sore and aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, upper
extremities (arm), lower extremities (leg), abdomen and bottom due to
strain from exercise or normal household work activities.
02
EMS:
The device ¡s designed to be used to stimulate healthy muscles In order to
improve or facilítate muscle performance.
1.4 Contraindications
1) This device should not be used for symptomatic local pain relief unless
etiology is established or unless a pain syndrome has been diagnosed.
2) This device should not be used when cancerous lesions are present in
the treatment area.
3) Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected, inflamed areas
or skin eruptions (e.g., phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, vaneóse veins, etc.).
4) Electrodos must not be applied to sites that might cause current/stimu-
lation to flow through the carotid sinus región (anterior neck) or trans-cere-
brally (through the head).
5) Patients with an implanted electronic device, such as a cardiac
pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or any other metallic or electronic
device should not use this device without first Consulting a doctor.

2. Check if the adhesive side of on the pad is clean after removing the
plástic film.
3. Place pads on the muscle you wish to treat. Make sure your skin has
been cleaned of all dirt, oil, or lotions.
4. Be sure to place the adhesive side of pad on your skin.
5. We recommend keeping the plástic films for storing the pads after
usage.
6. Make sure that you use at least one pair of pads on the same wire at the
same time ,one pad alone wlll not work.
7. Make sure the pads are stick adhered closely on your skin.
CAUTION:
1. Do not overiap pads or place one pad on top of another one.
2. Never remove the self-adhesive electrodes from the skin while the
device is tumed on. You will feel an uncomfortable electrical shock.
Electrodo Placement
The placement of electrodes can be one of the most important parameters
in achieving success with this therapy. Of utmost importance is the
willingness of the physician to try the various styles of electrodo placement
to find which method best fits the needs of the individual patient.
Once an acceptable location has been achieved, mark down the electrodo
sites and the device settings, so the patient can easily continué treatment
on them.

Rinse thoroughly and dry the area completely before and after placing
electrodos.
2. Excess hair may be clipped with scissors; do not shave stimulation area.
3. Many skin problems arise from the “pulling stress" from adhesive patches
that are excessively stretched across the skin during application. To prevent
this, apply electrodos from center outward; avoid stretching over the skin.
4. To minimíze "pulling stress", tape extra lengths of lead wires to the skin in
a loop to prevent tugging on electrodos.
5. When removing electrodos, always remove by pulling in the direction of
hair growth.
6. It may be helpful to rub skin lotion on electrode placement area during
treatment down time when you are not wearing electrodes.
7. Never apply electrodes over irritated or broken skin.
