STEP BY STEP OPERATION GUIDE FOR TREATMENT
Preparing the Skin for Running a Session
Proper preparation of the skin covered by the electrodes allows more stimulation to reach targeted
tissues, prolongs electrode life, and reduces the risk of skin irritation. After connecting the lead wire(s)
to the stimulator, use the following steps to prepare your skin at the electrode placement sites:
1. Determine the placement sites for the electrodes.
2. Wash the area with mild soap and water (do not use alcohol). Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Trim excess body hair from the area with scissors (do not shave).
4. Optionally, apply skin prep to the area to form a protective barrier on your skin. Apply, let dry, and
apply electrode as directed. This will both reduce the chance of skin irritation and extend the life of
your electrodes.
5. When removing electrodes, always remove by pulling in the direction of hair growth.
6. It may be helpful to apply skin lotion on electrode placement area when not wearing electrodes.
