You can use BioStim® TENS for as long as you need to.
Some people use their BioStim® TENS for 15 minutes before
they get out of bed in the morning, and others use it all day
and night to relieve severe, chronic pain.
Use your BioStim® TENS for one hour, then turn it off
and see how long the pain relief lasts. Reapply your BioStim® TENS
for another dose of one hour when pain levels start to increase.
Using this method, you will receive the exact dosage you reqire
for adequate pain relief for your particular injury or condition.
If you find pain relief is inadequate with a one hour dose,
apply the TENS for two hours and use the same system as above.
Many BioStim® TENS users have tried this particular method
with great success. It is particularly useful for those with
chronic, painful conditions like arthritis. In fact, many people
use this setting while in bed, finding it very useful for helping
them get to sleep. 3L stands for LOW pulse rate, LOW intensity
and LONG duration of use. Set the rate dial to 'L' (or minimum
on an Analgesic+2 unit), the intensity dial to a level where
you can just feel the pulses tingling (around 1.5 - 2 on the
dial), and use your BioStim® TENS for at least two hours
at a time. Re-apply as necessary.
