Chapter 5: Pain Relief Therapy
During a therapy session, the device will
comfortably stimulate the nerves in your leg to
provide pain relief. Regular therapy sessions last
60 minutes, and a new session will automatically
restart every other hour. If you prefer to not have
automatic restart turned on, consult APPENDIX E
to learn how to turn it off.
To optimize pain relief, you should feel a strong
but comfortable sensation during therapy. The
intensity that you will require is estimated based
on your device calibration. However, because of
differences among people, this estimated intensity
may be too low and feel weak, or too high and
feel uncomfortable. In either case, you should
adjust the intensity as described on page 12. The
greatest pain relief will be obtained when you
set the intensity to the highest level that is also
comfortable. The device will remember changes
made to the intensity after the first two minutes
of therapy and you should not need to adjust
often. Please follow the steps on the following
pages for a therapy session.
Preparing for Therapy Session
Before starting a therapy session make sure you
have an electrode attached to the device. You
should also check the battery to ensure it has an
adequate charge. Place the device on your leg as
described in Chapter 3.
Starting Therapy Session
To start a therapy session, tap the start button on
the Dashboard screen in the app. Or, briefly click
the button on the device. One indicator light will
blink white for the duration of the therapy session.

Pain Relief Therapy
What Therapy Feels Like
The intensity will gradually increase during the
first two minutes to an intensity that is strong but
comfortable. This strong but comfortable intensity
is based on results of the calibration process. You
may feel a strong sensation at first but it will
typically fade to a comfortable level after a couple
of minutes. If the sensation is uncomfortable
or painful, you should decrease the intensity as
described in the next section. Therapy will continue
for 60 minutes in Regular dose (see page 18 for
personalization options).
Once you have placed the device on your leg,
you may cover the device with your clothing. You
should be careful not to dislodge the device and
electrode when covering with clothing. You may
go about your normal activities during a therapy
session. Do not shower, bathe or swim with the
device on your leg.
