Programs
Programs description and recommendations
Always start with the lowest intensity and progressively increase the level of intensity until you feel a
"tingling" feeling when utilizing any of the six (6) programs for pain treatment. Each program is unique, and
as a result, each experience is unique. You can begin by trying all six (6) programs and then selecting the
one that seems most comfortable to you. Never raise the intensity to the point where it hurts; instead,
keep just below the point of pain. Start with 5- to 10-minute sessions until your body adjusts to the
stimulation.
