Frequently Asked Questions - EM 34 BEURER

When should I use the EM 34 device?

Use the device as soon as you feel knee or elbow pain. Starting immediately can relieve or avoid chronic pain. The earlier you use it, the higher the chances of relief.

How often can I use the device?

Do not use the device more than three times a day on the same area, each session lasting a maximum of 30 minutes. Start at low intensity. If the pain decreases, stop. If pain is due to overuse, take a two-day break.

When should I stop using the device?

Stop if you feel sharp pain during stimulation, or if side effects occur (skin irritation, redness, burns, headache, weakness). Also stop if the pain does not improve after several treatments, becomes chronic, or lasts more than five days.

What type of pain is the device effective on?

The device is most effective on acute pain (localized, less than three months). It does not treat the source of pain but provides temporary relief. For chronic pain (more than six months), consult a doctor.

Can I use the device if I have a pacemaker?

No, use is contraindicated if you have electronic implants like a pacemaker, metal implants, or an insulin pump. Always consult your doctor if in doubt.

Can I use the device while sleeping or driving?

No, never use the device while sleeping, driving, or operating machinery. An unexpected reaction (muscle contraction) could be dangerous.

How do I clean the cuff?

Disconnect the cable. Clean the cuff in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, dab with a towel and let it air dry completely before next use.

What if the device beeps twice when adjusting intensity?

This may indicate that the electrodes are not moist enough or the cable is not properly attached. Re-moisten the electrode covers or check the connections.

4. Introduction

The Knee and elbow TENS is a single-channel TENS device and falls into the category of electrostimulation units. Gentle electrical pulses are sent via water contact electrodes through the skin to the nerve fibers. The innovative Knee and elbow TENS provides temporary pain relief in the knee and elbow area.

TENS, or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, relates to the electrical stimulation of the nerves via the skin. TENS is an effective nonpharmacological method of treating different types of pain that have a variety of causes. It has no side-effects if administered correctly. The method has been clinically tested and approved and can be used for simple self-treatment. The pain-relieving or pain-suppressing effect is achieved by inhibiting the transference of pain to nerve fibers (caused mainly by high-frequency impulses) and by increasing the secretion of endorphins in the body. Their effect on the central nervous system reduces the sensation of pain. The method is scientifically substantiated and approved as a form of medical treatment.

Any symptoms that could be relieved using TENS must be checked by your doctor. Your doctor will also give you in

strictions on how to carry out a TENS self-treatment regime.

The device is designed to be used for temporary relief for sore and aching muscles in the upper extremities (arms) and lower extremities (legs) due to strain from exercise or normal household and working activities.

9. Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use this device?

Apply the cuff as soon as you feel pain in your knees/ elbows. If you begin using this device immediately, you can alleviate or even avoid chronic pain. The earlier you begin using the device, the higher the probability that pain can be alleviated.

How often should I use the device?

Do not use the device on a particular area more than three sessions per day, 30 minutes per session. Start the first treatment at low intensity until you are familiar with the device. Stop treatment as soon as the pain has receded or disappeared. If, after using the device, you experience pain

due to overexertion, stop use for two days. If you experience further pain due to overexertion, lower the intensity level during subsequent uses and reduce the treatment time.

When should I stop using the device?

Stop using the device if you feel a stabbing pain during stimulation. If you notice side-effects following use (skin irritation, reddening and burning of the skin, headache, feeling unwell), stop using the device. Stop using the device if pain does not improve after several treatments, becomes chronic or lasts for more than five days.

What type of pain should I use the device for?

The device works best to treat acute pain, meaning you can easily determine precisely where the pain is located. Acute pains are generally located in a specific area of the body and occur for less than three months. Chronic pain can occur in different parts of the body and over a period of six months or more. The device is unable to assist with chronic pain and you should consult a doctor instead.

This device cannot treat injuries or the source of pain. It is intended only to provide short-term pain relief with the aim of improving your day-to-day life.
