Device Description

The Spinal-Stim is an external, low-level, PEMF device and has been designed
with patient comfort and convenience in mind. It is a single-piece device that
is lightweight, flexible and portable, allowing freedom of movement during
treatment. A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and audible alarm provide important
feedback during treatment such as operational status, treatment time remaining,
battery capacity, etc. See "Visual and Audio Indicators" for more information.
The Spinal-Stim is comprised of a control unit and treatment transducer.
The control unit contains a micro-processor that generates the Spinal-Stim
electrical signal. That signal is converted to a highly uniform, low-energy
magnetic field by the treatment transducer. When the device is centered
over the treatment area, the therapeutic Spinal-Stim PEMF signal is delivered
directly to the treatment site.

The Spinal-Stim is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack.
The LCD and audible alarm will alert the patient when the battery is low and
needs to be recharged. See "Charging/Recharging the Battery" for more
information. To ensure that the device is functioning properly, the Spinal-Stim
constantly monitors battery voltage and the electrical signal. If at any time
during treatment the device stops functioning properly, the LCD will display
an appropriate symbol or error code. See "Visual and Audio Indicators"
for more information.
