1) Cleaning EMS pads to increase their life usage
The pads are moisture sensitive. For longer pad life, wipe the pads off after every use with “wet ones” – a moist toilette available in individual packets or in containers of up to 100.
Remember: good quality pads can last up to three times longer than cheaper electrodes BUT do not have to cost many times more!
We offer the most widely-used pad size of 2 x 2 squares though we also provide varying sizes that work.
2) Reusable self-adhering electrodes
Electricity passes through these electrodes at a very specific rate – a rate determined to be the most effective for relief. With use, the resistance changes. And this changes the effectiveness of the electrical muscle simulator.
For best results, the electrodes should be replaced every one-to-two months; with everyday use, the electrodes should be replaced every 20-to-30 uses.
With proper electrical muscle simulator pad care and storage, these electrodes may be used multiple times.
It is important to note that these are intended for single patient use.
