INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Compex Wireless USA is intended to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle
performance� It is to be used by adults only�
The Compex Wireless USA is not intended for adjunctive therapy in the treatment of medical diseases and
conditions of any kind� None of the Compex Wireless USA stimulation programs are designed for injured or
disease afflicted muscles� Its use on such muscles is contraindicated� The work imposed on the muscles by the
Compex Wireless USA programs is definitely not suitable for rehabilitation and physiotherapy�
The Compex Wireless USA electrical impulses allow the triggering of action potentials on motoneurones of
motor nerves (excitations)� These excitations of motoneurones are transmitted to the muscle fibers via the motor
endplate where they generate mechanical muscle fiber responses that correspond to muscle work� Depending
on the parameters of the electrical impulses (pulse frequency, duration of contraction, duration of rest, total
session duration), different types of muscle work can be imposed on the stimulated muscles�
The Compex Wireless USA may therefore be considered a technique of muscle training�
