1) Press and hold the ON button on the
control unit for 3 to 5 seconds to
switch the control unit on.
2) You can select from the four preset
programmes. Details in section 9 will
help you identify the best programme
to suit you.
To change
programmes, press the programme
selector, which is labelled P.
3) With the required
selected, you can adjust the intensity
of the muscle stimulation until you
reach a comfortable level. Once you
have reached a comfortable level, 5
seconds after you stop pressing the
button, the intermittent work/rest
phase will start. The machine will
take itself to 0 mA for a rest period
and then take itself back up to the
level of intensity you chose, to work
the muscle. This cycle will continue
for the 20 minutes of the programme.
Note: The strength required
varies widely between users -

sure strength will go up at 0.5 mA
increments.
Initially the sensation through the probe
may be limited but will improve during
treatment. Take care not to use too
much strength and
stimulate the muscles until normal
sensation is restored. The sensation
may not be even as it may vary
depending on the sensitivity of the
nerves.
The LCD display shows the strength of
intensity used. The aim is to increase
this over a few days. But remember
there is no hurry, so only increase the
strength of the stimulation as and when
you are comfortable and ready to
progress.

uncomfortable,

When switched on, in STRES and
TONE programmes the unit will go
through an exercise programme for 4-5
seconds, followed by a rest period of 8-
10 seconds. The itouch sure causes a
sensation which feels like a strong
drawing in of the vagina and pulling up
of the pelvic floor. The natural reaction
will be to pull in and up with the
muscles.
At lower strength settings, you may not
feel any sensation at all, this depends
very much on the individual and any
pre-existing physical conditions, so
