VI. PROGRAMMES AND SPECIFIC
APPLICATIONS
he applications that follow are given by way of example. They provide a bet-
T
ter understanding of how electrostimulation sessions can be combined with
voluntary activity. These protocols will help you to determine the best proce-
dure to follow depending on your needs (choice of the programme, muscular
group, duration, placement of the electrodes, body position).
ou can of course choose a muscular
Y
group different from the one indica-
ted, depending on the activities you
practice or the body area you wish to
stimulate.
he specific applications provide you
T
information on the placement of
electrodes and the stimulation posi-
tion to adopt. This information is re-
presented by numbers (placement of
electrodes) and letters (stimulation
position). They refer to the "Table
with placements of electrodes and
176
stimulation positions" in chapter VII
and to the poster with the pictures
for the placements of electrodes and
the pictograms for the body posi-
tions. The table also indicates the sti-
mulation energy to use, according to
the programme
ou must select in the device the
Y
muscular group indicated on the figu-
rine. When no figurine appears (–), it
is not necessary to choose the muscu-
lar group: the selection is automatic.
