6. Usage Guidelines

6.1 Program Descriptions

The choice of a program is determined by the injured body parts or joints. The appropriate stimulation programs (e.g., Disuse
Atrophy, Reinforcement, TENS, or Edema) and frequency of the program(s) are determined by the medical professional.
Consult your medical professional to be sure to understand the Empi Phoenix device.
6.1.1 Disuse Atrophy – P1
The Empi Phoenix Disuse Atrophy program focuses on generating a medium muscle contraction. This working level is
maintained over a long time period (20 minutes per session). The Disuse Atrophy program specifically activates the aerobic
metabolism of the fibers during the stimulation session. The purpose is to increase the time for the muscle to maintain a
medium contraction or the average power level for extended periods of time. This program is recommended for use before
and after the surgery as prescribed by your medical professionals.
P1 begins with a two-minute Warm-Up phase, which will count down on the screen. The Warm-Up phase will cause your
muscles to twitch but not contract. Set the device intensity to a comfortable level during Warm-Up. Once the Work phase
begins, the intensity will automatically decrease by half. You can then adjust the intensity to provide a comfortable but strong
muscle contraction. The program finishes with a Cool-Down phase similar to the Warm-Up phase.
