SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read instruction manual before operation. Be sure to
comply with all “CAUTIONS” and “WARNINGS” in the man-
ual. Failure to follow instructions can cause harm to user or
device malfunction.
Please read the following information before using your
iReliev Dual Channel TENS+EMS Device
What is TENS?
The more precise term is Transcutaneous (meaning “through
the skin”) Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). A TENS unit
is an electrical powered device used to apply an electrical cur-
rent to electrodes on a person’s skin to relieve pain associat-
ed with sore or aching muscles.
What is EMS or NMES?
EMS stands for Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), also
known as neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is the
elicitation of muscle contraction using electric impulses. EMS
has the potential to serve as a strength training and rehabil-
itation tool as well as offer post-exercise recovery benets.
An EMS device is used to stimulate healthy muscles to
improve muscle performance.
Warnings for proper use and safety
• Do not use this System if you have a cardiac pacemaker,
implanted debrillator (s) or any other implanted metallic
or electronic device. Such use could cause electric shock,
burns, electrical interference, or death.
• Do not use this System if you have undiagnosed chronic
pain.
• Do not use if you are pregnant. The safety of electronic
muscle stimulation over the pregnant uterus has not been
established.

• Do not use if you suffer from cancer. The effects of elec-
tronic stimulation on cancerous tissue is unknown.
• Do not use if you are under medical supervision for cog-
nitive dysfunction as you may not be able to comply with
safety instructions.
• Do not use if the unit is in close proximity to shortwave
or microwave diathermy equipment or you are connected
to high-frequency surgical equipment, because of risk of
device interference.
• Do not wear the device or place electrode pads over areas
at which drugs/medicines are administered (short-term or
long-term) by injection (e.g. hormone treatment).
• Do not use if you have epilepsy.
• Do not use if you have recently undergone a surgical pro-
cedure.
• Do not use following acute trauma or fracture in case of
critical ischemia of the limbs.
WARNING AND PRECAUTIONS
• If you are under the care of a Physician, consult with your
Physician before using this system.
• The long-term effects of this system are not known.
• Do not place the pads on or close to your heart.
• Do not place the pads around or close to your neck.
• Do not apply stimulation over the neck. Severe spasm of
the muscles may occur and the contractions may be strong
enough to close the airway or cause difculty in breathing.
Stimulation over the neck could also have adverse effect
on hearing or blood pressure.
• Do not apply stimulation across the chest because the in-
troduction of electrical current into the chest may cause
rhythm disturbances to the heart, which could be lethal.
5

• Do not place the pads on or around your head. The effects
of stimulation of the brain are unknown.
• Do not use the electrode pads over or close to sores.
• Do not place the electrode pads on the front or sides of the
neck across or through the heart (one pad on the front of
the chest and one on the back), in the genital region, or on
the head, because of the risk of stimulating inappropriate
muscles and organs.
• Do not place the electrode pads over any recent scars,
broken or inamed areas of infection or susceptibility to
acne, thrombosis or other vascular problems (e.g. varicose
veins), or any part of the body where feeling is limited.
• Do not place the electrode pads over areas of injury or
restricted movement (e.g. fractures or sprains).
• Do not use while sleeping.
• Do not use if you feel numbness.
• Do not use in or close to water.
• Do not use the pads over or close to cancerous lesions.
• Use the electrode pads only on normal, healthy, clean and
dry skin. Do not use the electrode pads on open wounds
or rashes, or over swollen, red, infected or inamed skin.
• If you have ever had back surgery, consult your Physician
before using this System.
• You must position the pads and operate the unit ONLY as
indicated in this manual.
• Avoid placing the pads over metal implants.
• Do not use in the bath or shower, or in an environment of
elevated humidity (e.g. Sauna, hydrotherapy, etc).
6

Wait before using this system until:
• At least 6 weeks after the birth of your baby (consult your
doctor before use).
• At least 1 month after an IUD contraceptive device (e.g.
coil) has been tted (consult your Doctor before use).
• At least 3 months after having a caesarean section (con-
sult your doctor before use).
• If applicable, please allow heavy days of your menstrual
ow to cease before use of this device. Vigorous abdomi-
nal exercise is not recommended under this circumstance.
Additional Precautions
• Keep this manual available whenever you use the system.
• The system is intended for personal use on healthy adults
only.
• The effectiveness of the system depends greatly on a per-
son’s individual physical condition. It may not always be
effective for every user.
• The safety of TENS + EMS stimulation during pregnancy
has not been established.
• Use caution when and/or if:
- User has skin areas that lack normal sensation.
- Following surgical procedures if muscle contractions
might impede the healing process.
- Over a menstruating or pregnant uterus.
- There is a tendency to hemorrhage following acute
trauma or fracture.
• Place electrode pads in accordance with illustrations in
this manual.
• This unit should not be used while driving, operating ma-
chinery or during any activity in which involuntary muscle
contractions may place the user at undue risk of injury.

• This unit should not be used while driving, operating ma-
chinery or during any activity in which involuntary muscle
contractions may place the user at undue risk of injury.
• Some users may experience skin irritation or hypersen-
sitivity due to the electrical stimulation or the conductive
medium.
• Keep the device out of the reach of children.
• This device should only be used with iReliev® brand leads,
electrode pads, and accessories.
• Application of moderate heat (thermal wrap) to muscles as
well as moistening skin prior to treatment improves treat-
ment efcacy; use of cold packs on treated muscles after
treatment is also recommended.
• The device is not intended for medical use, for the treat-
ment of any medical condition or for any permanent phys-
ical changes.
• Contact ExcelHealth, or an authorized dealer, if your unit is
not working correctly. Do not use in the meantime.
• An effective session should not cause discomfort.
• For rst time users, stimulation can be an unusual sen-
sation. We recommend that
you begin in a seated position
with low stimulation intensity
settings to familiarize your-
self with the sensation before
progressing to higher intensity
levels.
• Start all sessions in a sitting
position (Fig. A1). If neces-
sary, secure the limb(s) before
using this device.
• Do not over exert yourself
while using the device. Figure A1

• Do not place pads over jewelry or body piercings.
Please use caution and consult your Physician before
using system if any of the following conditions apply to
you:
• You have any serious illness or injury not mentioned in this
guide.
• You have recently undergone a surgical procedure.
• You take insulin for diabetes.
• You use the device as part of a rehabilitation program.
• If you have suspected or diagnosed heart problem.
• If you have suspected or diagnosed epilepsy.
• If you have a tendency to bleed internally following an in-
jury.
• If areas of skin lack normal sensations, such as skin that
tingles or is numb.
• During menstruation or during pregnancy.
• Some people are sensitive to stimulation. If your skin is
sensitive to the feeling, please stop use immediately and
consult your Physician.
• If skin under one of more pads feels irritated after using
the device for a long period of time, use the device for a
shorter period of time.
• Minor redness at stimulation placement is a normal skin
reaction. It is not considered as skin irritation, and it will
normally disappear within 30 minutes after the electrodes
are removed. If the redness does not disappear after 30
minutes from the removal of electrodes, do not use the
device again until after the redness has disappeared.
