Sharp and recent muscular pains affecting a muscle in the low back (lumbago)

During back movement, for example when lifting something, when turning or when standing up straight after bending
down, a sudden pain can be triggered in the low back. Those who suffer from this problem present a contracture of the low
back muscles and feel a sharp pain in this region; because they cannot stand completely straight, they remain bent over on
one side. All of these symptoms indicate what is known as lumbago, which is principally the result of a sharp and intense
contracture of the low back muscles (lumbar region). In a situation such as this, it is always necessary to consult a doctor to
receive appropriate treatment In addition to such treatment, the specific Compex Lumbago programme can help effectively to
relax the muscles and remove the pain.

Chronic elbow pain (epicondylitis = tennis elbow)
All tendons of the muscles that allow us to stretch our hand, wrist and fingers end at the small external bone mass of the
elbow (epicondyle). Hand and finger movements therefore transmit tensions that are concentrated in the tendon endings at
this bone mass. When hand movements are repetitive, as is the case for painters, tennis players or even those who constantly
use the mouse of a computer system, small injuries, accompanied by inflammation and pain, develop in the region of the
epicondyle. This is known as "epicondylitis", which is characterised by pain around the external bone mass of the elbow
when pressure is applied or when the forearm muscles are contracted. The Compex Epicondylitis programme supplies
specific current to combat this type of pain. It acts effectively as a supplement to rest. However, it is neccary to consult your
doctor if the pain gets worse or does not disappear quickly after a few sessions.
Cycle duration: 1 week, 2 x/day minimum, then adapt according to how the pain develops
According to requirements, the Epicondyiltis programme can be repeated a number of
times during the same day.
