TRANSCUTANEOUS NEUROSTIMULATION INFORMATION The device works on the principle of transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS), which enables you to relieve pain and soothe muscle tension. This device also helps to promote venous return and to strengthen the muscle mass. The device has been specially designed to be used at home. Transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS) is a non-analgesic drug therapy the nerves. This stimulation brings the body to produce and disseminate endogenous analgesic-
painkilling substances (endorphins, enkephaline) whose function is to anesthetize the pain. In case of pain or muscle tension, mini-electrical impulses in the nervous tissue may block the transmission of pain signals to the nervous system and trigger the release of endorphins. You can choose your programme among 11 preset TENS protocols on theapplication. For the strengthening of your muscle mass, you can select a programme among 8 protocols of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). The electrical stimulator sends, via the electrodes placed on the area to stimulate, electrical pulses causing a muscle contraction which strengthens the muscle. It is controlled from the application. A diagram of the human body with treatment zones helps you to position the electrodes correctly (see paragraph 10). The application (Mytens) is available on the App Store or Google play. The app operates on IOS, Android platforms (IOS 8.0, Android 5.0). Intended use The device designed to be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, upper extremities (arm), and lower extremities (leg) due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities. It should be applied to normal, healthy, dry and clean skin of adult patients. And is to be used for stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate muscle performance.

TENS PROGRAMMES Traditional transcutaneous neurostimulation programme :
A common transcutaneous neurostimulation programme is performed with a high frequency stimulation. This stimulation is intended to block the transmission of the pain signal to the nervous system. Generally, people use traditional transcutaneous neurostimulation for a session of about 30 minutes. It is possible to use these programmes for a variable period and frequency according to
-
adjust the intensity of the programme, avoiding any painful or unpleasant sensation. Burst transcutaneous neurostimulation programme :
A burst programme (Burst TENS) allows high frequency stimulation in the form of series of impulses. It enables the release of endorphins. It is possible to use the transcutaneous neuro-
stimulation in bursts for 30 minutes. The frequency can be up to several times per day, 3 times for example. For a sensation of strong stimulation, it is advisable to adjust the intensity of the burst programme. An unpleasant feeling may then appear. You can also adjust the intensity of the programme at a level leading to perceptible muscle contractions in the stimulation area. These contractions are not dangerous. However, if you experience discomfort, it is advisable to decrease the intensity of the programme, change or move the electrodes. The burst transcuta-
neous electrical neurostimulation (Burst TENS) can trigger a muscle contraction in the area of stimulation. We therefore ask you to perform this programme at rest. 11 Knee Knee pain 30min Phase 1 100Hz 150 BURST Lower leg Ankle Foot Pain in the lower leg Pain in the ankle and Achilles tendon problem Pain in the foot 30min Phase 1 100Hz 150 BURST On : 0,25s 30min Phase 1 100Hz 30min Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 40Hz (5s) 6Hz (10s) 50Hz (5s) 200 250 250 250 CONT Continuous output CONT Continuous output These programmes, commonly called neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) or elec-
