How often can I use ?
BAXOLVE
You can use to relieve pain as and when
BAXOLVE
you need to. However, it is not recommended
that you use the lumbar support or TENS for
more than 8 hours per day. When using
for more than one hour at a time, you should
turn off the stimulation for at least 5 minutes
every hour.
Can I use the lumbar support belt without
TENS?
Absolutely. The lumbar support belt can be used
on its own as a means of back support.
Can be used in conjunction with other
BAXOLVE
forms of pain relief ?
may be used as the sole form of back
BAXOLVE
pain relief. However, it can also be used safely
in conjunction with almost all forms of pain
therapy (see the Contra-Indications on page 13
for exceptions). However, you must consult your
doctor first.
Do I need a prescription to use ?
BAXOLVE

with your doctor first to ensure compliance with
any ongoing treatment.
Can I move around while using the unit?

BAXOLVE
to allow for maximum mobility during use.
The unit may be worn under clothing offering
effective back pain relief whenever and
wherever needed with minimum inconvenience.
Is safe?
BAXOLVE
is an extremely safe method of drug-free
BAXOLVE
pain relief. If you notice some skin redness after
a session it may be due to an increase in blood-
flow, pressure from the stretched belt or having
the intensity level too high. The redness should
fade shortly after the treatment. If the problem
persists, stop using the unit and seek further
advice.

the stimulation to the previously set level.

fortable?
