12. Beauty programs.
E01 • Lipolysis.
This specific drainage program increases microcirculation within and around the muscle fibres
treated and creates rhythmic contractions, facilitating the discharge of algogenic substances
and promoting lymphatic activity. It can also be applied to older people to improve blood and
lymphatic circulation.
The program produces sequential tonic contractions (before CH1/2, after CH3/4), reproducing
the typical effect of electronic lymphatic drainage.
There are no real limits of application for this program, which can be practiced until the desired
result has been achieved.
Stimulation intensity must be sufficient to produce good muscle contractions during the
treatment but not enough to cause any soreness. Duration 30 minutes.
The first results can usually be seen after 3/4 weeks practicing 4/5 sessions a week.
The programme produces sequential tonic contractions in the central work phase (first
CH1/CH2
then
CH3/CH4
): this is known as electronic lymphatic drainage. The electrodes should
be applied as follows:
CH1/CH2
on the extremities of the limbs (e.g. calf or forearm) and
CH3/CH4
on the upper part (e.g. thigh or biceps brachi).
Stimulation intensity: this should be enough to produce a good level of stimulation (without
pain) in the treated areas (15÷30 mA).
Total duration: 30 minutes

E02• Refirming.
Indicated for firming up muscles; working mainly on slow-twitch fibres. Suitable for those who
have never done any physical activity or have been inactive for a long period of time. Method
of use:
1. identify the muscle to be treated. To obtain good results we suggest to treat just a
few muscles at a time and complete the process described below;
2. position the electrodes as shown in the photo;
3. increase the intensity until the impulse can be felt (use a low intensity for the first
session to help you to understand how the machine works);
4. during the program and over the next few days the intensity should be increased
gradually so that muscle contractions are not painful;
5. during contraction generated by the unit, contract the muscle voluntarily;
6. a cycle of 15/20 applications must be completed before the first results can be seen;
one application for each muscle every two days with a day of rest in between.
It is possible to work on pairs of muscles, for example thighs and abdominal muscles, treating
thighs one day and abdominal the next day. Working on too many muscles at the same time is
not recommended.
