All the features of the “itouch easy”

Product detail

The itouch plus intelligent TENS machine includes the pain relief unit, a pack of four 50x50mm self-adhesive electrode pads, a lead wire for both channels, and a handy storage pouch and a belt clip. The unit has a backlit LCD display, and a sculptured keypad to make it easy for those with limited mobility in their hands to use. The TENS machine comes with two AA 1.5v (Type LR6) batteries and an instruction manual. There is also a usage diary, alarm and 24-hour clock.

The itouch plus has eight pre-set programmes, each with its own combination of frequency and pulse width settings. These provide different sensations, and relieve pain in different ways. You can also set your own customised programmes once you're more familiar with the device, and save these to the device's memory.

This unit also features a One Touch Memory Start - press one button and the itouch remembers and returns to the last settings, gently moving up to around 75% of the last intensity level used. Or use the Comfort Strength control which monitors skin and electrode pad resistance and adjusts the output, delivering a soft and comfortable sensation.

Frequency is measured in Hz, or pulses per second. A frequency of 110 Hz is good at blocking pain signals from reaching the brain, while a low frequency of 4 or 10 Hz allows for the release of endorphins. The pulse width (measured in millionths of a second) alters the feeling through the pads.

Health benefits
TENS machines can be used to treat conditions including arthritis, back pain, incontinence, lumbago, menstrual pain, multiple sclerosis pain, and nausea. Use TENS also for phantom-limb pain, post-shingles pain, sciatica, and pain caused by sports injuries, plus for many other conditions. They can even reduce stress, insomnia and travel sickness. Please note, it is important that you find out from your GP what is causing your pain before using the TENS machine. Additionally, you should not use it: if you have a heart pacemaker or have a heart rhythm problem; if you have (or have had) epilepsy; for the first three months of pregnancy; if you have acute, feverish or infectious diseases.

Advice

Please consult a doctor and read the product packaging before use, and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.

You should never use this unit near heart monitors or alarms or when cycling, driving or operating machinery.  This TENS machine uses electrodes. Do not place electrodes on the carotid arteries in the front of your neck, over your eyes, across the front of the head, on the abdomen if you are pregnant, on the heads of children under 12 or near malignant tumours.

This TENS unit is for home and professional use.

Re-useable electrodes designed for comfort and durability, they provide the optimum adherence and conductivity to the skins surface. Pliable construction allows the electrode to mould and stick comfortably to the skins surface whilst evenly dispersing the current to the treated area. CE Approved.

Features and Benefits of our Electrodes

• Best quality
• Suitable for all TENS, STIM, FES and EMG applications
• Reusable, durable, comfortable and long lasting
• Offers optimal conductivity and adherence to the skin
• Low allergy gel reduces skin irritation
• New pliable construction allows electrode to mould around and stick comfortably to skin surface
• Current disperses evenly across the electrode eliminating hot spots
• New carbon wire construction reduces interference for EMG applications

What Are Our New Features?
We have enhanced our Skin Electrodes by replacing the wire connector with carbon wire and using new materials for construction.
The carbon wire reduces interference for EMG applications and helps to disperse the current more evenly reducing hot spots.
