general well-being, pain relief, maintaining physical fitness, relaxation, mus-
cle revitalisation and combating tiredness. For these purposes, you can either
choose from preset programs or specify your own to suit your individual needs.
Electrostimulation devices utilise the operating principle of imitating pulses in
our bodies – these simulated pulses are transferred to nerve and muscle fibres
using electrodes, via our skin. The electrodes can be applied to many parts of
the body, as the electrical pulses produced are completely harmless and, if set
up correctly, painless. In certain applications you may perceive just a slight
tingling or vibrating sensation. The electrical pulses that are sent into the tissue
influence the transmission of stimulation into nerves, nerve centres and muscle
groups in the application area. Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is a widely
used and recognised method which has been used in sports and rehabilitation
medicine for years.
Electrostimulation is generally only noticeably eective with regular use. Elec-
trostimulation of muscles is not a substitute for regular training. However, it is a
useful, supplementary training element.
Getting to know the TENS device
TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) is the electrical stimulation
of nerves through the skin. TENS is an eective non-pharmacological method
for treating dierent types of pain from a variety of causes. It has no side eects
if administered correctly. The method has been clinically tested and approved
and can be used for simple self-treatment.
The pain-relieving or pain-suppressing eect is achieved by inhibiting the trans-
fer of pain to nerve fibres (mainly by means of high-frequency pulses) as well
as by increasing the secretion of endorphins in the body, because they have
an eect on the central nervous system which reduces the sensation of pain.
The method has been scientifically substantiated and approved as a form of
medical treatment. Any symptoms that could be relieved using TENS must be
checked by your GP. Your doctor will also give you instructions on how to carry
out a TENS self-treatment regime.
Getting to know the EMS device
In sports and fitness, electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is used to comple-
ment conventional muscle training, to increase the performance of muscle
groups and to adjust physical proportions to achieve the desired aesthetic re-
sults, amongst other things. There are two dierent types of EMS application.
One is for targeted strengthening of muscles (activating application), and the
other is to achieve a relaxing, restful eect (relaxing application).
Getting to know MASSAGE
Thanks to integrated massage technology, the device is also able to relieve
muscle tension and combat fatigue with a program based on the sensation and
eects of a real massage.
The positioning suggestions and program tables in these instructions for use
enable you to quickly and easily determine the appropriate application (de-
pending on the aected area of the body) and set the device to achieve the
desired eects. Thanks to the four separately adjustable channels, the Digital
TENS/EMS device oers you the advantage of being able to set the intensity
of the pulses independently from each other for four treatment areas on the
body, for example to cover both sides of your body or to evenly stimulate larger
areas of tissue.
The option to individually set the intensity of each channel also enables you to
treat two separate areas of the body simultaneously instead of having to treat
the individual areas in turn. This saves you time.
To enable pain to be alleviated even more pleasantly, with the EM 89 Heat you
can also switch on a soothing heat function, with two levels available and a
maximum heat of 43°C.
Heat has been shown to promote circulation and relaxation. The heat function
of the EM 89 Heat can be used with stimulation or on its own.
