Getting acquainted

This device combines
• acupuncture and
• TENS functions.
Acupuncture is a therapeutic method from
traditional Chinese medicine, with origins
that reach back into ancient times.
The acupuncture points can be used to di-
rectly regulate the vital energy or "Qi", which
travels through the body via the meridians.
Each acupuncture point is associated with a
certain organ system. When an acupuncture
point is stimulated, the function of the re-
spective organ system can also be stimu-
lated.
The electronic acupuncture unit is a safe
electronic unit that allows this form of ther-
apy to be used without needles. The elec-
tronic acupuncture unit detects acupuncture
points automatically and signals this by
means of audible and visual indicators. The
device stimulates the acupuncture points
with three predefined stimulation pro-
grammes. The stimulation strength can be
adjusted at any time to attain optimum com-
fort.
This user-friendly electric acupuncture de-
vice can be used to treat the following com-
plaints, amongst others:
• Allergy-related coryza
• Menstruation-related complaints
• Upper abdominal pain
later use. Be sure to make them accessible
to other users and observe the information

TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve
Stimulation) is the term used to describe the
electrical stimulation of nerves through the
skin. TENS is an effective, clinically proven,
non-medicated method approved for treating
particular types of pain, which if used prop-
erly, has no side effects. This makes it per-
fect for self-treatment.
The pain-relieving/suppressing effect is
achieved, among other methods, by pre-
venting the nerves from conveying the pain
messages (mainly by using high-frequency
pulses) and increasing the release of the
body's own endorphins, which act on the
central nervous system to reduce the sensa-
tion of pain. This is a scientifically supported
and medically approved method.
Your specialist must approve use of TENS for
any complaint. He/she will also advise you on
the appropriate use of TENS self-treatment.
