Ionophoresis
Ionophoresis is an electrotherapy form that acts transmitting pharmacological
substances inside the tissue thanks to a continuous electric current of unidirectional
type.
Ionophoresis bases on the capacity of ionic dissociation of some medicated
substances, of very low molecular weight, after being dissolved in water.
It is really important to know that the active part of the medicine has, after being
dissociated under ionic form, positive or negative charge, with the aim to place it
correctly according to the direction of the electric flux.
The ions of the medicated substance are transmitted inside the organism through
cutaneous areas that oppose a low resistance to the current reaching in this way
the cellular membranes that are thereby electrically modified.
The home user can use the ionophoresis treatments only after consulting the
specialist who will prescribe the medications to use and give the indications for the
type of currents to use.
The current intensity should be regulated as to be barely perceptible. We
recommend starting the treatment with the lowest intensity and gradually
increasing.
DO NOT APPLY THE MEDICATION DIRECTLY TO THE SKIN. Apply the medication to the
absorbent surface of the electrode corresponding to the medication's polarity; the
absorbent surface of the other electrode should be dampened with slightly salted
water, to promote conductivity.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Maintenance and cleaning of the device
- In case of real or alleged malfunction, do not tamper with the device or try to
repair it yourself.
Do not intervene on the device and do not open it. Only specialized and
authorized centers can repair it.
- Avoid violent impacts that may cause damage and malfunctions to the device
even if undetectable immediately.
- Use this device in a dry environment and in an open space (not wrapped in any
materials).
- Clean the device and accessories only with disinfectant with sodium hypochlorite
or quaternary ammonium salt diluted with distilled water equal to 0,2-0,3%. After
cleaning/disinfecting it, dry the device and its accessories with a clean cloth.
- Always use the device and its accessories with clean hands.
