Introduction to Revitive
Intended use:
Revitive is intended to be used for electrical stimulation of the muscles of the lower
leg for the purposes of supporting muscle function, and supporting and improving
blood circulation. In addition Revitive is intended to be used for electrical stimulation
of sore and aching muscles to relieve pain. Revitive is intended for home use for
30 minutes per treatment with a maximum of 3 hours treatment time per day as
required.
Indications for use
• To temporarily increase local blood circulation in healthy leg muscles.
• To stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate
muscle performance
• For temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in
the shoulder, waist, back, upper extremities (arms) and lower extremities
(legs) due to strain from exercise or normal household duties
How Revitive works
Revitive delivers electrical stimulation to your feet via a pair of cushioned foot pads,
while you are seated. The electrical stimulation causes muscles in your calf and foot
to contract, which helps to increase circulation in your lower legs.
Revitive has been developed so that it is comfortable for you to use.
Revitive can also deliver electrical stimulation to the knees, shoulders, back or arms,
by using the Revitive Electrode Body Pads (sold separately).

Important Safeguards
Read all instructions before use
Who should not use Revitive
Revitive should not be used by some people.
Contraindications, do not use if:
• You have a cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or other
implanted electronic device because this may cause electric shock,
burns, electrical interference, or death
• You are pregnant
• You are being treated for, or have the symptoms of, an existing
Deep Vein Thrombosis (“DVT”)
Long periods of inactivity can put you at greater risk of developing Deep
Vein Thrombosis (DVT). DVT is a blood clot and usually occurs in a deep
leg vein. If part of the DVT breaks o it may lead to potentially life-
threatening complications such as pulmonary embolism.
If you have been inactive for prolonged periods and suspect you may
have a DVT, consult your doctor immediately. To prevent dislodging the
clot do not use Revitive.
In some cases of DVT there may be no symptoms. However it is important
to be aware of the symptoms that may include:
• pain, swelling and tenderness in one of your legs (usually your calf)
• a heavy ache in the aected area
• warm skin in the area of the clot
• redness of your skin, particularly at the back of your leg, below
the knee
Consult your doctor as soon as possible if you show any signs of the
above symptoms.
