k Ensure you familiarize yourself with the feeling of
Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Use on a low
intensity for 20 minutes once per day for a few days.
Set the intensity at a level where you get a strong but not
painful thigh (quadriceps) muscle contraction.
Aer a few days of familiarization, you may be able to use
at a higher intensity level provided it is not painful.
It is normal to feel tingling or varying sensations in
your muscles you are treating.
Adjusting the intensity level - At the start of therapy there will be 30 seconds of
stimulation to help you set the right intensity level. This is followed by a rest period of
30 seconds, when you will feel no stimulation.
For the remainder of the therapy session you will feel 10 seconds of stimulation,
followed by a 20 second rest period which repeats until the end of therapy.
Adjust the intensity when you can feel the stimulation being applied to your thigh.
It is not possible to adjust the intensity during the rest period.
