Current waveforms – Pain management
For pain management, the following current waveforms are recommended.
• 4-Polar Interferential Currents
• Biphasic Pulsed Currents (TENS)
• Premodulated
• Micro Current
• High Voltage
• Diadynamic Currents
• Galvanic Current
• Träbert, 2 – 5 Current
Current waveforms – Muscle stimulation
For muscle stimulation, the following current waveforms are recommended.
• Biphasic Pulsed Currents (TENS)
- Asymmetrical and Alternating asymmetrical
- Symmetrical
• Premodulated
• Russian Stimulation
• High Voltage
• Faradic Current
- Faradic Rectangular or Triangular pulsed current
These waveforms are often applied in combination with a surge program, which consists of a
sequence of exercise and rest periods. Two options are available here:
• Reciprocal application, where stimulation alternates between agonists and antagonists. This is
accomplished through asynchronous stimulation over two current channels with an appropriate
delay between the two channels.
• Co-contract application, where two channels operate synchronously to co-contract agonist and
antagonist or different sections of a larger muscle group.
Current waveforms – Combination therapy
Combination therapy is available with all current waveforms, but limited to channel 2.
