• Do NOT use during the first three
months of pregnancy. It is not known
whether TENS may affect foetal
development.
• Do NOT use on the abdomen in the
later stages of pregnancy. Stop
using immediately if you experience
unexpected contractions.
WARNINGS:
Do NOT use when driving,
operating machinery, or similar
actions needing
control. Loose electrode
damaged leads, or sudden changes in
contact may cause brief involuntary
muscle movements.
Do NOT use to mask or relieve
undiagnosed pain. This may
delay diagnosis of a progressive
condition.
Do NOT use if you have, in the
area being treated: active or
suspected cancer or undiagnosed pain
with a history of cancer. Stimulation
directly through a
suspected malignancy
avoided as it may stimulate growth and
promote spread of cancer cells.
CAUTIONS:
Caution should be used if you
have a bleeding disorder as
stimulation may increase blood flow to
the stimulated region.
Caution should be used if you
have suspected or diagnosed
epilepsy as electrical stimulation may
affect seizure threshold.
