Safe Use Tips
Always start at a low intensity and increase it gradually until you feel a comfortable sensation. Also, do not place electrodes on the front of the neck, the chest or irritated skin, and people with a pacemaker should not use the unit without consulting a doctor. Therefore, it is better that a physiotherapist sets the program, electrode placement and session time.
As a result, the PRIMERA 2-channel TENS unit is a practical choice for pain relief and muscle stimulation in the clinic and at home. You can also compare it with the Chattanooga Intelect Mobile 2 Combo or the ITO 2-channel electrotherapy unit.
