Programme 3
With this programme it is possible to treat the body with a low frequency
stimulation of 2 Hz. It is very practical for chronic pain that lasts for several months.
The pain relief will not appear immediately, but last for a long time. The intensity
has to be adjusted so that visible muscle convulsion is achieved. In the Programme
1 and 2 this usually requires a higher intensity than with this programme.
The muscle convulsions are necessary – as a result of the nerve stimulation – to
obtain the wanted body reaction.
If, however, the feeling is too much of a discomfort, the patient can alternatively
try Programme 7 for the same goal. The Programme 3 is also used alternatively for
Programme 1 and 2, if the success with the named programmes is not sucient.
Practical to treat
» Hip pain
» Blood circle system (improving the activity)
» Shoulder pain

frequency, while the following 20 minutes are running on 2 Hz. This programme
