ELECTRODE PLACEMENT GUIDE
• Stimulation Position:
Position yourself comfortably in the position as shown in the pictures.
The muscles work in an isometric fashion and in a stretched position. To
work comfortably and safely, keep your limbs in a fixed position (keep
your hands or feet to one spot). This provides maximum resistance to
movement and stops the muscle from tightening during the contraction.
• Placement of the Electrodes:
A lead wire connects with 2 pads:
a positive pole (+) = red connection
a negative pole (–) = black connection
The positive pads must be placed over the motor point of the muscle
(see images). Always follow the placement directions in the images.
