Frequently Asked Questions - Perfect EMS TensCare

How to use Perfect EMS to tone the abs?
Place the electrodes on the abs according to the positioning diagram (section 9.3). Select a suitable EMS program (B, C or D). Adjust the intensity until you feel a comfortable contraction. Use 3 sessions per week for 4 to 6 weeks.
What is the difference between EMS and TENS programs?
The EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) programs cause muscle contractions to tone and strengthen muscles. The TENS (transcutaneous neurostimulation) programs relieve pain by blocking pain signals or releasing endorphins.
How to install the batteries?
Remove the belt clip, open the battery compartment, insert 2 AA alkaline batteries respecting polarity (+/-). Replace the cover and clip. Use only alkaline or rechargeable batteries.
How to position electrodes to relieve lower back pain?
Place the electrodes on each side of the spine at the level of the painful area. Use a TENS program (S or T) and adjust the intensity for a pleasant tingling sensation without muscle contraction.
Can I use Perfect EMS if I have a pacemaker?
No, use is contraindicated in the presence of a pacemaker, implantable defibrillator, or any other implanted electronic device. Risk of serious or fatal malfunction.
How to clean the electrodes?
After each use, remove the electrodes from the skin, place them back on their protective film, and store them in the resealable bag. If they lose adhesion, lightly moisten the surface with water. Do not use chemicals.
What to do if the device does not turn on?
First check that the batteries are correctly inserted and not worn. If the low battery symbol appears, replace the batteries. If nothing displays, ensure new batteries are in place and the contacts are not damaged.
How long does a typical session last?
The recommended treatment duration is 20 to 40 minutes for TENS programs and 20 to 60 minutes for EMS programs. You can set the duration from 10 to 90 minutes or choose continuous mode.
Are the electrodes reusable?
Yes, the self-adhesive electrodes are reusable for a single patient. They typically last 12 to 20 applications depending on skin type and hygiene. Replace them when they no longer stick.
How to lock/unlock the keypad?
The keypad locks automatically after 30 seconds of inactivity. To unlock, press the CH1▼ or CH2▼ button. Locking prevents accidental setting changes.

1. INTRODUCTION

Device Description & Principles of Design

The perfect EMS unit provides muscle toning, shaping and rehabilitation through EMS, with additional pain relief programmes using TENS to relieve pain from injuries and muscle strain.

It sends a small and gentle stimulation (similar to your natural nerve impulses) to the muscles being treated via two or four auto-adhesive electrode pads, in order to help you to firm and tone your body.

Muscle wastage: neuromuscular facilitation, muscle re-education, muscle training, prevention/slowing of atrophy/hypotrophy and reduction of spasticity.

Sports training: warm up, strength, speed, power, resistance, endurance and recovery.

2. INTENDED USE

Perfect EMS is a medical device designed to be used in the home healthcare environment to improve muscle tone and bulk, as well as provide symptomatic relief and management of acute or chronic localised pain and muscle pain. It is suitable for use by all who can control the device and understand the instructions.

Do not use the device for any purpose other than this intended use.

Note: The electrode pads need to be applied directly to the skin before the intensity increase buttons will operate. If the perfect EMS detects the unit is not properly connected to you (for example if the electrode pads or leads come loose) then the unit switches the intensity to zero. This safety feature prevents any unpleasant changes in output.

4. HOW 'EMS' WORKS

E.M.S. stands for Electrical Muscle Stimulation and has successfully been used in medical rehabilitation and training in competitive sports. EMS produces intensive and effective muscular contraction.

EMS is a complement to other physical therapy and should always be combined with active mobility, strength, coordination and functional training.

In training, the technology for electrotherapy is used for all kinds of muscular exercise - warm-up, strength, speed, power, resistance, endurance, recovery and also for rehabilitation. EMS is well known and works as an excellent complement to regular training.

Advantages of EMS

Use of EMS will help to tone and shape the body by contracting the selected muscle group. It is particularly convenient for areas that are famous for losing their shape and hard to exercise such as the upper arms and the face.

Successful athletes all over the world have discovered the advantages of electrical muscle stimulation, such as an increase of the local circulation and the size of the muscle fibres.

How EMS Works

Muscular activity is produced by the central and peripheral nervous systems transmitting electrical stimuli to the muscles of our body. EMS uses external electrical impulses that work through the skin to stimulate the nerves supplying a specific muscle group.

This current then passes into the nerve fibres controlling that part of the muscle stimulating it to contract. So, electrical stimulation (EMS) artificially activates a muscle for you enabling to exercise the muscles and, as with any kind of exercise if performed regularly, build strength and tone.

Different frequencies have different effects; low frequencies (1-10 Hz) coupled with long impulse times, for example, have a purifying and relaxing effect through individual contractions, whereby the circulation in the treated muscle is simultaneously improved and removal of metabolic end products is supported (lymphatic drainage).

In contrast, by means of a rapid succession of contractions (fibrillation),

TensCare Perfect EMS - How EMS Works - 1

medium frequencies (20-50 Hz) can put a high level of strain on the muscle, thus promoting the muscular structure.

5. HOW 'TENS' WORKS

T.E.N.S. stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. T.E.N.S. stimulates your body's own natural defences against pain, namely the release of endorphins. TENS is totally safe and has been used successfully by thousands of pain sufferers.

TENS sends a gentle stimulation through the skin which works in TWO ways:

Pain Gate

It stimulates the sensory nerves, which carry touch and temperature signals. These nerves go to the same connections in the spine as the

TensCare Perfect EMS - Pain Gate - 1

natural_image Illustration of a human back with colored segments and labels (no text or symbols present)

nerves carrying pain. A strong sensory signal will block the pain signal travelling up the spine to the brain. This is known as closing the "Pain Gate" and takes effect quite quickly after the unit is switched on. When the gate is open, pain messages get through to the brain and we feel pain. When the gate is closed, these pain messages are blocked and we do not feel pain.

Evidence suggests that TENS produce pain relief in a similar way to ‘rubbing the pain better’. The pain gate can be closed by activation of mechanoreceptors through ‘rubbing the skin’.

Scientifically, the pain gate works by the release of a chemical in the synapse at spinal level that inhibits transmission of pain signal.

Endorphin Release

At low frequency settings, and slightly stronger outputs, TENS drives the motor nerves to produce a small repetitive muscle

contraction. This is seen by the brain as exercise, and this promotes the release of endorphins - your body's own natural pain killer. The relief builds up and normally takes about 40 minutes to reach a maximum level which can last for hours after the machine is switched off.

By using TENS, you can expect to achieve a significant reduction in pain - if not complete relief from pain.

  • TENS is effective for pain from a very wide range of causes.
  • TENS machines can be used to help reduce pain from problems in muscles, joints and nerves.
  • It can be also used for people with musculoskeletal pain such as long-term (chronic) back pain or knee joint arthritis. They are also often used for pain relief in the early stages of labour (see perfect mamaTENS), particularly whilst a pregnant woman remains at home.
  • TENS may also be used to treat many types of pain, such as migraine headaches, period pain and endometriosis (see Ova+), cystitis,

sports injuries, fibromyalgia and neuralgia, plantar fasciitis, post-operative pain, TMJ disorder, diabetic neuropathy, osteo-arthritis and sometimes non-painful conditions such as travel sickness.

  • You can use low frequency (<10 Hz) programmes on acupuncture points, to achieve similar effects to acupuncture.
  • With neurogenic pain (caused by inflamed nerves) such as shingles and neuralgia, TENS may start by increasing the pain. We recommend that you only use TENS for these conditions under medical supervision.

You can safely use TENS as long as it gives you pain relief. The effect may wear off after a few hours (this is called "accommodation"). If this happens, take a break of an hour or so before trying again. If you use settings that cause muscle movement for more than 40 minutes, you may experience aching muscles a few hours later.

7. INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROGRAMME SETTINGS

Each programme has its own combination of Frequency and Pulse Width settings which allow for different muscle groups to be exercised and toned through the electrode pads.

- Frequency (measured in Hz - pulses per second)

For EMS programmes:

Low frequencies (1-10 Hz) have a purifying and relaxing effect through individual contractions.

Medium frequencies (20-50 Hz) can put a high level of strain on the muscle, thus promoting the muscular structure.

For TENS programmes:

Pain gate: A high frequency of 110 Hz is good at blocking pain signals.

Endorphine release: A low frequency of 4 or 10 Hz allows for the release of endorphins, the body's natural morphine-like substances.

- Pulse Width (measured in s - millionths of a second)

The perfect EMS unit has pulse widths of 50 to 350 s. Generally speaking, the higher the pulse width, the more "aggressive" the stimulation feels, if the pulse width is set high enough, it will usually elicit a muscle contraction, which is required for an effective toning of the muscle group selected.

For the TENS programmes (pain relief), it is not desired to elicit a muscle contraction, however Pulse Rate is important because different frequency settings target different nerve groups and the setting will determine if the "Gate Theory" or "Endorphin Theory" of TENS will be used.

- Work/Rest

All the EMS programmes (see A to H) are intermittent.

Once you have reached a comfortable level, 5 seconds after you stop pressing the button, the intermittent Work/Rest phase will start.

For each programme, the unit will go through a stimulation phase (Work) for 1-40 seconds, followed by a phase without stimulation (Rest) for a similar time.

This is to allow your muscles to recover from exercise and avoid fatigue.

During the Work period (W), the unit will generate contractions, try to contract the muscle voluntarily at the time to get the best possible results.

This cycle Work/Rest will continue for the duration of the programme selected.

W and R are displayed on the screen.

- Ramp

RAMP is the time in seconds taken to move up and down between zero and the set stimulation strength (i.e. the time taken to move between the Work stimulation and the Rest period). The perfect EMS offers Ramp periods from 0 to 5 seconds.

- Constant and Burst Modes

Constant mode is when the sensation is continuous versus Burst mode when the sensation, as its name implies, is one of on and off. Constant mode is often used for acute pain via Pain Gate effect whereas Burst mode is useful in chronic pain relief. Burst gives a combination of Pain Gate and Endorphin Release, but the squeezing feeling may not be as comfortable. The stimulation intensity will need to be relatively high. In Constant mode, the sensation is continuous and is more of a tingling pins and needles type. See programmes S and T.

8.4. USING THE PROGRAMMES

• TENS PROGRAMMES

There is not one programme for a particular condition, and the best choice varies from one person to another, even if they have the same type of pain.

TensCare Perfect EMS - • TENS PROGRAMMES - 1

Each user needs to select both the programme and the positioning of the electrode pads that is best for them. You may need to try a few positions/programmes before finding the one that suits you.

TENS can be used for as long as it is necessary. Continuous treatment is fine, but the electrode pads should be repositioned regularly (at least every 12 hours) to allow the skin to be exposed to the air.

The Endorphin Release works better when the strength is high enough to cause small muscle contractions. Best results are achieved with a session duration between 20 and 40 minutes. Longer use may cause muscle ache.

• EMS PROGRAMMES

Abs, hip, thigh:

EMS can help improving body toning and body shaping by generating passive muscle contractions in the selected area.

It may improve your general fitness levels as well as achieving a thinner silhouette by building up the muscles.

Bust:

Electrical Stimulation can build, strengthen, and firm the pectoral muscles giving bulk and lift.

  • Exercise and massage therapy to enhance the size and shape of your breasts
  • Natural method to enhance your all-natural body

Note: For improved comfort, use this programme with the breast electrode pads* (see E-CMR60130).

*Sold separately.

Arm:

The upper arms often get saggy and flabby especially in women with the triceps (back of the upper arm). It is commonly referred to as "Bingo Wings" or "Bat Wings". It is tricky to tone this muscle group and some women find this area ungraceful or even embarrassing.

Perfect EMS helps to tone, firm and lift the triceps and the biceps as it allows you to generate contractions in this specific muscle group.

Calf:

Most people are aiming for thin but muscly legs with a harmonious balance between the size of the thighs and the size of the calves. Often, the calves are either too skinny with only little muscle mass or too big with a long muscle mass especially around the ankle.

The aim is to tone, shape and lift the calves' muscles to achieve slender legs with improved definition of the muscles as well as a slimming effect on the ankles

Generally, 3 sessions per week, over a period of 4 to 6 weeks, gives good initial results depending on the body shaping, toning, sports training or rehabilitation and recovery needs.

GENERAL ADVICE:

Ideally, use perfect EMS once every two days for each muscle with a day of rest in between. It is possible to work on pairs of muscles, for example thighs and abdominal muscles, treating one set one day and the other the next day.

TensCare Perfect EMS - GENERAL ADVICE: - 1

Warning: Working on too many muscles at the same time is not recommended.

Increase the intensity until you feel a very smooth tensing under the pads, there should be little visible movement.

Use a low intensity for the first session to help you to understand how the machine works.

During the programme and over the next few days the intensity should be increased gradually to produce marked, but not painful muscle contractions.

Once good results have been obtained the sessions may be reduced to once or twice a week until the user feels that optimum body shaping has been achieved.

TensCare Perfect EMS - GENERAL ADVICE: - 2

Note: The stimulation should remain comfortable and relaxing at all times.

9. ELECTRODE PADS

9.1. PAD POSITIONING

The electrode pads must always be used in pairs (two electrode pads on each channel), so that the signal can flow in a circuit.

Electrode placement for TENS:

  • TENS works one vertebra at a time. You need to stimulate the sensory nerves that enter the spine at the same level as the nerve carrying your pain. Since you don't know exactly where your nerves are, the easiest way is to apply the electrode pads around/near the source of the pain.
  • TENS activates the nerves best if it travels along the nerve rather than across it. So place one pad further from the spine than the source of the pain, and one closer.
  • The nerves wrap around the limbs and torso, so you may have to try a few positions before you get the best effect.
  • If the pain is in, or close to, your spine you can place one pad either side of the spine.
  • You may feel more sensation in one pad than the other. This is normal – it depends on where the electrode pads are in relation to your nerves.

TensCare Perfect EMS - Electrode placement for TENS: - 1

Note: See examples of positioning in the instructions enclosed with your electrode

pads.

TensCare Perfect EMS - Electrode placement for TENS: - 2

Electrode placement for EMS is very important for obtaining the best results:

Place two electrode pads over the bulk of the muscle, with one electrode over the muscle's motor point. The motor point is the area on the skin that is located closest to the motor nerve's entry into the muscle – about 1/3 of the way down the muscle from the spine. Here, it is easiest to trigger a contraction by electrical stimulation.

Experiment by moving the electrode pads across the skin until you locate the point over the muscle that gives the cleanest contraction. In the examples in section 9.3., the electrode pads are marked +ve (red) and -ve (black) to match the red and black leads. One of the electrode pads should be positioned over the motor point.

Large muscle groups may require stimulation with two channels, that is, four electrodes simultaneously.

When exercising smaller muscles, take care to adjust the intensity level slowly as the motor nerves may be more sensitive and using smaller electrode pads increases the current density.

You may feel more sensation in one pad than the other. This is normal – it depends on where the electrode pads are in relation to your nerves.

Use the square electrode pads (see E-CM5050) for all areas.

For the bust area, it is recommended to use the optional breast electrode pads for improved comfort (see E-CMR60130 ^* ).

*Sold separately.

Always check that the unit is OFF before attaching or removing electrode pads.

Perfect EMS resets strength to zero if the pad or lead is disconnected from your body. This is to prevent sudden changes in sensation when the pad is re-connected.

9.2. PAD ADVICE

  • The electrode pads supplied are reusable but for single patient use. The adhesive is a peelable hydrogel (water based).
  • In order to obtain the best conductivity through the electrode pads always ensure that they are in good condition and tacky.
  • Before use make sure your skin is clean and dry.
  • Peel the electrode pads from their protective plastic shield by holding and lifting one corner of the pad and pulling. Do not pull on the pigtail wire of the pad.
  • After use always replace the electrode pads on the plastic liner and replace them in the re-sealable plastic bag.
  • If the electrode pads dry out, then it is best to buy a replacement pack. In an emergency, it may be possible to restore some of the tackiness of the pad by adding a tiny drop of water on each pad and spreading around. If too much water is added, the electrode pad will become too soft. If that happens then it is suggested in order to try and re-establish some adhesiveness, to place them sticky side up in a refrigerator for a few hours.
  • In very hot weather the gel on the electrode pads may become soft. In

such cases place them, still on their plastic liners and in their pouch into a fridge until they return to their normal condition.

  • The electrode pads provided are latex-free.
  • Replace the electrode pads when they lose their stickiness.

Poor connection may cause discomfort and skin irritation.

- Storage life of an unopened pack of electrode pads is 2 years. This may be affected by very high temperatures or very low humidity.

TensCare Perfect EMS - ON/OFF - 1

Note: Always check unit is OFF before applying or removing electrode pads.

The backlight will turn off 10 seconds after the last button press.

On the front of the unit there are six buttons:

STRENGTH CONTROLS

The buttons marked CH1▲, CH1▼, CH2▲, CH2▼ are the strength controls.

TensCare Perfect EMS - STRENGTH CONTROLS - 1

The left-hand buttons change strength in the left-hand lead, CH1, and the right-hand buttons change the right-hand lead, CH2.

TensCare Perfect EMS - STRENGTH CONTROLS - 2

To increase strength in steps of 1 mA, press and release the top part of the channel buttons, CH1▲ and CH2▲.

The strength levels are shown on the LCD.

The strength control buttons will not operate until the unit is properly connected to you. If the perfect EMS detects a disconnection in either channel it will automatically return the strength to zero in that channel and flash '00'.

The unit has 90 levels of strength.

If you hold down the strength controls for 3 to 5 seconds, the strength will start increasing continuously.

You may feel nothing over the first few presses. Continue pressing until the sensation is strong but comfortable. At each phase of the programme the intensity automatically adjusts to give a comfortable stimulation, however further increases during use may be necessary if your body becomes used to the sensation. To decrease the strength, press and release the lower part of the buttons marked CH1▼ and CH2▼.

The yellow LED on the output socket indicates that there is an active output which can be high enough to be harmful if not used correctly. The display will remain on for 5 seconds after the plug is removed.

PROGRAMME CONTROL

TensCare Perfect EMS - PROGRAMME CONTROL - 1
