6. Modes and Programs

The Comfytemp K6106030-UK offers a variety of modes and 24 preset programs to address different needs:

• TENS (stimolazione elettrica nervosa transcutanea): Primarily used for temporary relief of pain. It works by sending small electrical impulses through electrodes placed on the skin to block pain signals or stimulate endorphin production.
• EMS (stimolazione muscolare elettrica): Used for muscle conditioning, strengthening, and recovery. It causes muscles to contract, which can help improve muscle tone and endurance.
• DIY (Do It Yourself): This mode allows you to customize the frequency, pulse width, and on/off time to create a personalized therapy experience.

7. Electrode Placement Guide

Proper electrode placement is crucial for effective and safe therapy. Always ensure pads are placed on clean, dry, intact skin.

Linee guida generali:

• Do not place electrodes over the heart, on the head, face, throat, or any broken or irritated skin.
• Avoid placing electrodes directly over joints where movement can cause them to detach.
• Place electrodes at least one inch apart.
• For TENS, place pads around the painful area. For EMS, place pads on the muscle belly.

Common Application Areas:
