ENGLISH
Intended use
The PulseRelief is intended to be used by adult
consumers who experience mild to moderate
chronic pain or acute post-surgical pain. The purpose
of this device is to provide pain relief through
transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS).
You can also use this device for electrical muscle
stimulation (EMS). The device is suitable for home use.
If you recently had surgery or are in the care of a
doctor, do not use this device without consulting
your doctor rst.
Do not place the electrodes over open wounds
or rashes.
TENS and pain management
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)
is a non-invasive pain relief method for which
clinical proof exists that it can help relieve pain.
Physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals
use TENS daily as part of their treatment. TENS
treatment passes electrical pulses across the intact
surface of the skin to activate the underlying nerves.
Clinical evidence suggests that TENS produces
pain relief in a similar way to the nervous system’s
own pain-relief mechanisms, for instance similar to
massaging a painful area.
The device uses a rechargeable battery to generate
pulses. These pulses are applied to the skin through
self-adhesive hydrogel electrodes. You can choose
one of the 15 pre-set TENS programs with different
pulse settings and you can adjust the intensity of the
pulse according to your own preference.
ENGLISH 5
Electrical muscle stimulation
Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), also known as
neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) or
electromyostimulation, uses electric pulses to evoke
muscle contraction. A stimulation device generates
pulses and delivers them through electrodes on the
skin close to the muscles you want to stimulate. The
pulses mimic the way the central nervous system
makes the muscles contract. You can choose one of
the 5 pre-set EMS programs.
Pain management
We all want to enjoy doing our daily activities. When
you experience pain, however, the instinctive reaction
is to avoid pain by reducing your activity level. As a
result, you become less t and less able to enjoy doing
the things you like. Staying active, without overdoing
it, is important to avoid being trapped in a persistent
pain cycle. The key to self-managing your pain is
pacing: distributing periods of activity and periods of
rest over the day in a way that feels most comfortable
for you. The key to pacing is spreading out your
activities and ‘taking a break before you need it’.
Important safety information
Contra-indications
Do not use the device if:
- you have a cardiac pacemaker,
implanted debrillator or other
implanted metallic or electronic
device (e.g. a drug delivery system),
as use in these cases could cause
electric shock, burns, electrical
interference, or even death.
ENGLISH6
- you have a heart disease.
- you have epilepsy.
- you are in the rst trimester of your
pregnancy, as the effects of TENS on
the development of the foetus are
as yet unknown. Avoid use over the
uterus during pregnancy to reduce
the risk of inducing labour. If you
are pregnant, always consult your
doctor or midwife before use.
- you have a cognitive impairment.
- you have venous or arterial
thrombosis or thrombophlebitis. If
you use the device for EMS, there is
a risk of mobilising the blood clot.
- you have undiagnosed pain, unless your
doctor recommends use of this device.
Reactions
Stop using the device and consult
your doctor if the pain worsens or
if you experience adverse reactions
from the device.
Possible adverse reactions may
include the following:
- skin irritation beneath the
electrodes, although the gel used
on the electrodes is not known to
cause allergic reactions
ENGLISH 7
- burns beneath the electrodes
- headaches or other painful sensations
- nausea or feeling faint
Side effects
- After EMS, some muscle soreness may
occur some time after the treatment.
- Some reddening of the skin under
or around the electrodes may
occur during and shortly after EMS
treatment. Skin reddening usually
disappears within two hours after
treatment. If the skin continues to
be red for more than a day, please
consult your doctor.
Warnings
General warnings

Children may not be able to use
it according the instructions in this
user manual. This device should not
be used on or by children.
ENGLISH8
- This appliance is not intended for
use by adults with reduced sensory
or mental capabilities. They may not
be able to use it according to the
instructions in this user manual and
they may become agitated by the
treatment.
- Do not use the device on children,
as the device is not designed to use
on children.
- Do not modify the device or
the electrodes. This could cause
improper functioning.
- Only use the adapter supplied to
charge the device. Use of another
adapter may cause a hazardous
situation.
- This device is designed for use by
and on a single adult person.
Do not apply to or treat the
following parts or areas
- Stimulation on the sides of the
neck over the carotid sinus may
have severe adverse effects on your
heart rhythm or blood pressure.
ENGLISH 9
- Stimulation on the front of the neck
may cause severe muscle spasms
that could close your airway and
result in breathing difculties.
- Do not apply stimulation across
your chest because the introduction
of electrical current into the chest
may cause rhythm disturbances to
your heart, which could be lethal.
- Stimulation across the head or on
opposite sides of the head must be
avoided, as the effects on the brain
are unknown.
- Do not place the electrodes on skin
that is not intact, clean or healthy.
Open, irritated or otherwise damaged
skin may lead to the delivery of too
much current to the area, which may
potentially cause burns.
- If you recently had surgery, do not
place one or both electrodes on the
cut. Place the electrodes at a distance
of 3 to 5 cm from the cut or along
the proximal nerves or near the
spine where the skin is intact.
- Do not place the electrodes
near cancerous lesions, as this may
have a negative impact on the
cancerous lesion.
ENGLISH10
- Do not place the electrodes on
areas of skin that lack normal
sensation. This may cause you to
be unaware of the high intensity
current administered, which may
result in electrical skin burns.
- Do not place the electrodes over
open wounds or rashes. Open
wounds may lead to the delivery
of too much current to the area,
potentially leading to burns.
It might also cause substances in
the electrode to enter the skin.
- Do not place the electrodes over
swollen, red, infected or inamed
areas or skin eruptions (e.g.
phlebitis, thrombophlebitis and
varicose veins). Stimulation must
not be applied to areas with known
thrombosis or thrombophlebitis, as
stimulation may increase circulation,
resulting in a greater risk of emboli.
- Do not place the electrodes inside
body cavities, e.g. the mouth. This
device is not designed for internal
application.
- For EMS, only place the electrodes
on healthy, uninjured muscles.
ENGLISH 11
Do not use the device in the
following conditions
- Do not use the device if you
recently had surgery or are in the
care of a doctor and have not
consulted your doctor rst.
- Do not use the device if you have a
tendency to bleed internally due to
any impact or injury.
- Do not use EMS stimulation to
contract a muscle if contraction
of the muscle may disrupt healing.
For instance, if the muscle or
tendon is torn, muscle contraction
may exacerbate the tear, just like
a voluntary contraction. This may
also be the case after a recent
surgical procedure or following
acute trauma or fracture. Muscle
contraction in case of tendinitis may
also worsen symptoms.
- Do not use the device while
driving, operating machines or
performing any other activity in
which electrical stimulation can put
you at risk of injury.
ENGLISH12
- Do not use if you are likely to fall
asleep during the treatment, as this
may cause you to sense injuries
too late. If you use the device at
bedtime, set the timer to make it
switch off automatically.
- Do not use while in the bath,
shower or swimming pool. This
increases the risk of electric shocks
and burns to the skin.
- Do not apply stimulation in the
presence of electronic monitoring
equipment (e.g., cardiac monitors,
ECG alarms), which may not
operate properly when the
electrical stimulation device is in use.
- Do not use the device when you are
connected to high-frequency surgical
equipment. This may result in burns
on the skin under the electrodes and
may damage the device.
- Do not use the device within less
than 1 metre from shortwave or
microwave medical equipment.
Close proximity to this equipment
may cause unstable device output.

person to person, we advise you to try out different
treatment programs to nd out which one works
best for you.
Program overview
Conventional TENS programs
Conventional TENS is a common TENS program
with high-frequency stimulation. It is based on the
Gate Control Theory that states that this type of
stimulation will block transmission of pain signals in
the nervous system. It is comparable to ‘rubbing the
pain away’. Most people use Conventional TENS
for 30 minutes per session, but you can use it as
often and as long as it feels comfortable. The effect
is usually most perceptible during stimulation and
generally wears off rather quickly after stimulation.
You have to adjust the intensity of the program so
that you clearly feel the stimulation. Stimulations
must not feel unpleasant or painful.

Burst TENS programs
Burst TENS offers a high-frequency stimulation that
comes in trains of pulses. This type of stimulation is
known to trigger endorphin release. Endorphins are
painkillers produced by the body. You can use Burst
TENS around 30 minutes multiple times a day, for
example 3 times. We advise you to adjust the intensity
of the Burst program so that you feel the stimulation
strongly. Burst programs generally give a sharper
sensation, which can feel somewhat unpleasant. It is
also advised to adjust the intensity up to a level that
produces visible muscle contractions in the treatment
area. These contractions are not harmful. If you nd
these contractions too uncomfortable, you can
decrease the intensity, choose a different program or
move the electrodes to a different place. Apply Burst
TENS programs while resting, as they can result in
muscle contraction in the treatment area.

Frequency-modulated TENS programs
Frequency-modulated TENS is a program in which
the frequency of the pulse varies from high to low.
This can be more comfortable or effective than
the other programs in some cases. You can use
frequency-modulated TENS for around 30 minutes
multiple times a day, for example 3 times.

Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) programs
Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), also known
as neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES)
or electromyostimulation, uses pulses to evoke
muscle contraction. This can for example help to
strengthen muscles.
Use EMS only on healthy, uninjured muscles. Apply EMS
programs while resting (sitting, lying), as they result in
muscle contraction. First-time users can experience
electrical muscle stimulation as an unfamiliar and
unusual sensation. We therefore advise you to start
at a low intensity setting to get used to the sensation
before you choose a higher intensity setting. In general,
stimulation must always feel comfortable. The muscle
contractions must not feel exhausting, strenuous or
tiring. After strenuous exercise or exertion, we advise
you to use a lower setting to avoid muscle fatigue.
