TIPS FOR SKIN CARE

Good skin preparation is important for effective and comfortable use of your
TENS device.
• Always clean the electrode site with mild soap and water solution, rinse
well, and dry thoroughly prior to any electrode application.
• Any excess hair should be clipped, not shaved, to ensure good electrode
contact with the skin.
• If a skin treatment or preparation is recommended by your physician /
clinician, apply the skin treatment as recommended, let dry, and apply
electrodes as directed. Following these recommendations will both re-
duce the chance of skin irritation and extend the life of your electrodes.
• Avoid excessive stretching of the skin when applying electrodes. Proper
application is best accomplished by applying the electrode, then smooth-
ly pressing it in place from the center outward.
• When removing electrodes, always remove by pulling in the direction of
hair growth.
• It may be helpful to rub skin lotion on electrode placement area when not
wearing electrodes.
