REATMENT
Shoulder pain, although not as common as lower
back pain, can be just as debilitating. It is often
caused by poor muscle tone, muscle tension or
spasm, sprains, ligament or muscle tears and joint
problems. The pain can be made even worse by
bending, sitting badly, turning in bed and even

coughing or sneezing.

Connect the pads to the leads as shown. Carefully
place the pads on the shoulder area as indicated
and use the TENS unit to select the programs and
intensity of the treatment.

and/or shoulder pain.
Treatment:
Connect the pads to the leads as shown. Carefully
place the pads on either side of the spine, covering
the area of pain as indicated. Use the TENS unit to
