identify the precise cause of the pain in order to prevent the condition from
reoccurring.
Session duration: 40 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo 29 in the Positions manual.
Intensity: to be adjusted above the perception threshold.
TENS13 • Epitrochlea (medical program)
Also known as "golfing elbow", it affects golfers but also those who carry out
repetitive tasks or tasks involving frequent intense strain (for example
carrying a particularly heavy suitcase). It causes pain in the flexor and
pronator tendons inserted in the epitrochlea. Pain is felt when bending or
straightening the wrist against resistance, or when clenching a hard rubber
ball in the hand.
It is recommended 15 applications once a day (even twice), until the
symptoms pass. First it is recommended that you consult your doctor to
identify the precise cause of the pain in order to prevent the condition from
reoccurring.
Session duration: 40 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo 29 in the Positions manual, but with all the
electrodes positioned on the inside of the arm (with a rotation of about 90°).
Intensity: to be adjusted above the perception threshold.
TENS14 • Periarthritis (medical program)
Scapulo-humeral periarthritis is an inflammatory condition affecting the
fibrous tissues surrounding joints: tendons, serous sacs and connective tissue.
These appear altered and can break into fragments and calcify. If neglected,
this condition can become heavily crippling. For this reason, after carrying out
a cycle of 15/20 applications once a day, it is recommended that you consult
your doctor for a cycle of specific rehabilitation exercises to reduce the pain.
This program consists of various phases including TENS and muscle
stimulation aimed at improving the tone of the muscles surrounding the joint.
Session duration: 41 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo 26 in the Positions manual.
Intensity: to be adjusted above the perception threshold with small muscle
contractions at the end of the program (10 minutes before the end).
