the nerves to block the pain signals to the brain, and the pain is not perceived. Low-frequency
TENS stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.
1.2.2 EXPLANATION OF EMS
Electrical Muscle Stimulation is an internationally accepted and proven way of treating muscular
injuries. It works by sending electronic pulses to the muscle needing treatment; that causes the
muscle to exercise passively. It is a product derived from the square waveform, originally invented
by John Faraday in 1831. Through the square wave pattern it is able to work directly on muscle
motor neurons. The Ultra EMS System has low frequency and this in conjunction with the square
wave pattern allows direct work on muscle groupings.
1.2.3 EXPLANATION OF MASSAGE
Massage, to stimulate the muscle motor nerves of healthy persons to improve their muscular
performance, to achieve a relaxing effect or to improve circulation exchanges.
2.1 Intended use
For TENS mode:
• To be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles due
to strain from exercise or normal household work activities.
For EMS mode:
• To be used to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate muscle
performance.
For MASSAGE mode:
• To be used for recovery of fatigue, improves blood circulation neuralgia.

other implanted metallic or electronic device. Such use could cause electric shock,
burns, electrical interference, or death.
• The device should not be used when cancerous lesions or other lesions are present
in the treatment area.
• Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected, inflamed areas or skin
