Frequency Modulated TENS, Medium Range
Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable
pain
Temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching
muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household and
work activities
This protocol can be used for treatment of various chronic pain conditions such as arthralgia, epicondilitis, lower back muscle pains etc.
Modulation of frequencies helps to avoid adaptation. Medium range modulation provides more comfortable stimulation than high range
option.

Frequency Modulated TENS, Low Range
Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable
pain
Temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching
muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household and
work activities
This protocol is a more effective version of Low Frequency TENS and Burst TENS protocols for the long-term treatments as it avoids
adaptation via frequency modulation. Low frequency pulses alleviate pain by stimulating muscles to release the endorphins. In addition,
muscle twitches also increase local blood circulation.

Pulse Modulated TENS, High Range
Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable
pain
Temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching
muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household and
work activities
This protocol can used for treating of chronic pain conditions requiring higher levels of comfort such as muscle pain, sharp knee and
shoulder pains. It also creates massage like effect on certain muscle groups (such as Trapezius).

Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable

Temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching

This protocol can used for treating of chronic pain conditions requiring higher levels of comfort. Low Range provides even more
pleasant/comfortable stimulation when comparing to High Range option, more suitable for treating of the joint pains.

Burst TENS
Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable
pain
Temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching
muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household and
work activities
Burst TENS is usually effective against radiating pain in the arms or legs (rhizopathy), for conditions with reduced or changed sensory
of touch, for deep muscular pain or when the post-treatment of TENS is too short. High frequency pulses packaged into low frequency
bursts alleviate pain by stimulating muscles to release the endorphins. In addition, muscle twitches also increase local blood circulation.
Burst TENS can be effectively altered with more aggressive Low Frequency/Endorphin TENS and less adaptable Low Range
Frequency Modulated TENS protocols.
