Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulations (TENS) are non-invasive methods for pain management that use electrical impulses from electrodes placed on the skin to reduce pain in two ways: by blocking pain signals to the brain and stimulating the body's natural painkilling endorphins. TENS devices have multiple settings to find the frequencies and intensities that provide the best pain control for different conditions and are effective for managing chronic pain without drugs by allowing patients to resume daily activities.

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulations (TENS) are safe non-invasive,
drug-free methods of pain management. TENS is currently one of the most commonly used forms of electro- analgesia. The TENS device relieves pain by sending small electrical impulses through electrodes placed on the skin to underlying nerve fibers. TENS works by two different mechanisms. First, electrical stimulation of the nerve fibers can block a pain signal from being carried to the brain. If the signal is blocked, pain is not perceived. Secondly, the body has its own mechanism for suppressing pain. It does this by releasing natural compounds called endorphins which act as analgesics.

Troubleshooting: PROBLEM
By effectively managing pain without drugs. TENS allows many people
with chronic pain conditions to resume daily activity. TENS has proven to be beneficial in the treatment of acute and chronic pain caused by pain related medical conditions. When TENS is used as an analgesic, patients are instructed to try different frequencies and intensities to find those that provide them with the best pain control. Optimal settings of stimulus parameters are subjective and are determined by trial and error. Electrode positioning is quite important. Usually the electrodes are initially placed on the skin over the painful area, but other locations may give comparable or even better pain relief such as: Over cutaneous nerves Acupuncture points Trigger points Powered Muscle Stimulator (PMS) is intended to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance. 1. Relaxation of muscle spasms 2. Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy 3. Increasing local blood circulation 4. Muscle conditioning 5. Immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent venous thrombosis 6. Maintaining or increasing range of motion
CAUSE
One pad feels
stronger than the other.
This is normal. Different areas of your body will react differently.
Nothing needs to be done.
Make sure the pads are moist and are making good contact.
During the massage,
the skin feels a painful burning sensation or the stimulation becomes weakened.
Adhesive gel pads
are not adhering firmly to the skin. Or the gel pads are too dry.
Apply a few drops of water to
adhesive surface of each pad and make sure the pads are pressed firmly to the skin during application.
Unit is on, but no
sensation is felt in the pads
Both pads are not
firmly on the skin. Or there is a loose connection. Or the intensity level needs to be increased
Make sure both pads are
firmly pressed to the skin. Make sure all connections are secure from the unit to the wires and the wires to the pads. Increase the intensity level
Adhesive gel pads
do not stick to skin even after cleaning and moistening the gel pad.
Adhesive gel pads
need to be replaced
Unit does not turn
on or the screen is dim.
Battery is low
Does not provide
adequate pain relief.
SOLUTION
Replace the set of pads.
Pads can be purchased from www.Healthmateforever.com
Use your massager 20-30
minutes at a time, 3-6 times per day. Lie on your back for neck support when you need relief for headaches or neck pain.
Precautions:
1) 2) 3) 4)
Contraindications:
Do not use this device if you have a cardiac pacemaker, implanted
defibrillator, or other implanted metallic or electronic device. Such use could cause electric shock, burns, electrical interference, or death.
Warnings:
1) 2) 3)

Recharge the battery
Not using it long
enough or frequently enough. Not lying down when massaging neck.
7)
The long-term effects of chronic electrical stimulation are unknown.
Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerve, particularly in patients with a known sensitivity to the carotid sinus reflex. Stimulation should not be applied over the neck or mouth. Severe spasm of the laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles may occur and the contractions may be strong enough to close the airway or cause difficulty in breathing. Stimulation should not be applied trans-thoracic ally in that the introduction of electrical current into the heart may cause cardiac arrhythmias. Stimulation should not be applied trans-cerebrally. Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected, or inflamed areas or skin eruptions, e.g., phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc. Stimulation should not be applied over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions

Safety of this device for use during pregnancy has not been established. Caution should be used for patients with suspected or diagnosed heart problems. Caution should be used for patients with suspected or diagnosed epilepsy. Caution should be used in the presence of the following: a. When there is a tendency to hemorrhage following acute trauma or facture b. Following recent surgical procedures when muscle contraction may disrupt the healing process; c. Over the menstruating or pregnant uterus; d. Over areas of the skin which lack normal sensation. Some patients may experience skin irritation or hypersensitivity due to the electrical stimulation or electrical conductive medium. The irritation can usually be reduced by using an alternate conductive medium, or alternate electrode placement. Electrode placement and stimulation settings should be based on the guidance of the prescribing practitioner. The device should be kept out of the reach of children. The device should be used only with the leads and electrodes recommended for use by the manufacturer. This device should not be used while driving, operating machinery, or during any activity in which involuntary muscle contractions may put the user at undue risk of injury.
Adverse Reactions May Include:
Skin irritation and burns beneath the stimulation electrodes applied to
your skin Headache and other painful sensations during or following the application of electrical stimulation near your eyes, to your head and face
You should stop using the device and consult with your physician if you experience any adverse reactions from the device.

KNEADING
Simulating kneading penetrates into the muscles to help
reduce tension,stress,& fatigue.
ACUPUNCTURE
Simulating acupuncture provides the same sensation
without needles,by utilizing electronic pulses to achieve the sensation of differing needle depths. The general theory of acupuncture is based on the premise that there are patterns of energy flow (Qi) through the body that are essential for health.Disruptions of this flow are believed to be responsible for disease.Acupuncture may correct imbalances of flow at identifiable points close to the skin. It ha been known to help treat addiction,stroke rehabilitation,headache,menstrual cramps,tennis elbow,fibromyalgia, myofascial pain,osteoarthritis,low back pain,carpal tunnel syndrome,asthma & many other things.
Mode Descriptions:
We suggest that you initially experiment using each of the 15 modes. The mode or combination of modes that gives you the most desirable sensations and comfort is the most appropriate one to use for your current therapy session. Adjust the intensity as needed for each mode.
15 different therapeutic massage modes with different waveforms:
Neck, Shoulder, Back, Elbow, Hip, Ankle, Knee, Foot/Hand, Wrist, Knead, Acupuncture, Tapping, Cupping, Scraping, Random (rotates through all of the modes interchangeably)
Make sure your skin has been cleaned of all dirt, oil, or lotions.
When preparing to apply the electrode pads make note that putting a few drops of tap water on your fingers and rubbing them onto the electrode pads will help them maintain their adhesiveness.
When your current session is complete, always turn the device off before the removal of the electrode pads from your body or before unplugging any of the lead-wires. Once the device is off, you may then remove the electrode pads &
Place the protective film back on the pads or place the pads on
