INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROGRAMME SETTINGS

• Frequency (measured in Hz - pulses per second)
PAIN GATE: A high frequency of 110Hz is good at blocking pain signals.
ENDORPHINE RELEASE: A low frequency of 4 or 10Hz allows for the release of endorphins, the body’s
natural morphine-like substances.

• Pulse Width (measure in μS - millionths of a second)
The Touch TENS unit has pulse widths of 50 and 200 μS. Higher Pulse Widths are more likely to cause
muscle contractions.

• Constant and Burst Modes
Constant mode is when the sensation is continuous as against Burst mode when the sensation, is as its
name implies, is one of on and off.
