Placepadsatleast1inch(3cm)apartforoptimalresults.
GeneralPrecautions
The long-term effects of electrical stimulation are unknown.
Apply stimulation to only normal, intact, clean, dry and healthy skin.
TENS is not effective in treating the original source or cause of the pain, including
headache.
TENS is not a substitute for pain medications and other pain management therapies.
TENS devices do not cure disease or injuries.
TENS is a symptomatic treatment and, as such, suppresses the sensation of pain that would
otherwise serve as a protective mechanism.
Effectiveness is highly dependent upon patient selection by a practitioner qualied in the
management of pain patients.
Youmayexperienceskinirritationorhypersensitivity due to the electrical stimulation or
electrical conductive medium (gel).
Keepunitawayfromyoungchildren. The unit contains small pieces that may be swallowed.
Immediately contact your physician.
Ensure that this device has acclimated to room temperature before using. Using this
device after an extreme temperature change could lead to an improper operation. OMRON
recommends waiting for approximately 2 hours for the device to warm up or cool down
when the device is used in an environment within the temperature specied as operating
conditions after it is stored either at the maximum or at the minimum storage temperature.
For additional information of operating and storage/transport temperature, refer to
“SPECIFICATIONS”.
PossibleAdverseReactions
Donotusetotreatoneregionforextendedperiodsoftime(morethan30minutesa

5. HOW POCKET PAIN PRO WORKS
Whatisit?
TheOMRONPocketPainProisaportabledevicethatrelieveschronic,acute*andarthritic
painthroughthepainreliefofTENS. It is designed to reduce and relieve muscle and joint pain,
stiffness and numbness in the back, arms, legs, shoulder and foot by applying electrical nerve
stimulation to the surface of the skin near the site of the pain. Anyofthemodescansafelybeused
onbodypartsorpainsdescribedinthismanualorthe QuickStartGuide/PadPlacement
Guide. This device can be used in conjunction with any other pain treatment or medication.
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) has been used for over 40 years by medical
professionals such as physical therapists and chiropractors.
* Acute pain refers to sore or achy muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household
and work activities
Howdoesitwork?
Scientic theory suggests that electrical stimulation therapy may work in several ways:
1. The gentle electrical pulses move through the skin to nearby nerves to block or shut out
the pain message from ever reaching the brain from the source of the pain.
2. The gentle electrical pulses increase the production of the body’s natural pain killer,
such as endorphins.
3. The electrical stimulation improves blood circulation. Muscles contract and relax with
the ow of the electrical stimulation. With repeated contracting and relaxing, the blood
ows in and out and the blood circulation is improved.

Whattypeofpainisitbestfor?
This therapy works best on acute pain because it is localized. Acute pain is pain in one area
for less than 3 months. If you have chronic pain, you may have pain in more than one area
and for longer than 6 months. Chronic pain may be compounded by other issues that this
unit cannot address.
Remember, this unit does not cure your pain or the original cause of the pain. It provides
temporary relief or reduction of pain so that you can control your life and activities better.
Beforeusing,checktomakesureallcomponentsareworkingproperly.
1. Make sure the cord is not broken.
2. Check that the pad adhesive sticks and is not damaged.
3. The electrode cord connection is not broken.
