ZAP Your Pain

AWAY!

Page 2: Proofed -zap your pain

We all know the story of howBenjamin Franklin “discovered”

electricity.

Page 3: Proofed -zap your pain

Little did Benjamin know at the time the full extent to which

electricity would help mankind.

Page 4: Proofed -zap your pain

For example: Did you know that electrical

current can relieve you of

your pain?

Page 5: Proofed -zap your pain

And it can help you

heal!

Page 6: Proofed -zap your pain

Seriously!

Page 7: Proofed -zap your pain

BUT WAIT!Before you go and do something

stupid…

Page 8: Proofed -zap your pain

You need to understand exactly what KIND of electricity we are

talking about here

Page 9: Proofed -zap your pain

Electricity is measured in volts, amps and watts

Page 10: Proofed -zap your pain

But, when it comes to pain relief and healing…all you need to know are

these:

Page 11: Proofed -zap your pain

Because these:

TENS EMS IF Galvanic Ultrasound

Powers these:

TENS EMS IF Galvanic Ultrasound

And just what the h*ck are these?

Page 13: Proofed -zap your pain

Think of them as little magic boxes of healing

and relief

Page 14: Proofed -zap your pain

But let’s take a look at each one specifically

Page 15: Proofed -zap your pain

First, the TENS unit

Page 16: Proofed -zap your pain

Pain signals start at the nucleus and travel along

your nerves to your brain.

TENS

Page 17: Proofed -zap your pain

Nerves transmit signals much like a telephone

wire.

TENS

Page 18: Proofed -zap your pain

TENS produces a pleasant

electrical signal that travels along your nerve path

temporarily OVERRIDING

your pain signal

TENS

Page 19: Proofed -zap your pain

The result is relief from your pain, and a smile on your face

TENS

Page 20: Proofed -zap your pain

The electrical signal originates in the TENS unit then enters and exits the

body via electrodes.

TENS

Page 21: Proofed -zap your pain

Now let’s focus on EMS

Page 22: Proofed -zap your pain

EMS stands for Electrical Muscle Stimulation

EMS

Page 23: Proofed -zap your pain

EMS helps muscle tissue to heal by creating repetitive

contraction and relaxation.

EMS

Page 24: Proofed -zap your pain

The resulting activity brings nutrient rich blood to the

damaged tissue.

EMS

Page 25: Proofed -zap your pain

Like the TENS, The EMS connects to the body via

electrodes.

EMS

Page 26: Proofed -zap your pain

Now we’ll look at IF

Page 27: Proofed -zap your pain

IF stands for Interferential

IF

Page 28: Proofed -zap your pain

Inter Fur say WHA?

IF

Page 29: Proofed -zap your pain

InterferentialIF

It crosses two different currents to make a

third, more powerful and deeper penetrating

current.

Page 30: Proofed -zap your pain

InterferentialIF

IF current easily passes through tissue and bone.

Page 31: Proofed -zap your pain

Not this kind of tissue.

IF

This kind!

Interferential

Page 32: Proofed -zap your pain

IFIF current gets inside

damaged cells where it alters the fluid in a way

that allows sodium ions to escape.

This kind of cell

Not this kind

Page 33: Proofed -zap your pain

IF

The result is a reduction is

swelling which means a quicker

recovery.

Page 34: Proofed -zap your pain

Now let’s look at Galvanic

Page 35: Proofed -zap your pain

Galvanic is another word for DC (Direct Current) as opposed to

AC (Alternating Current)

Galvanic

Galvanic: For those about to heal!

Page 36: Proofed -zap your pain

Galvanic is most effective on serious tissue trauma such as

bleeding* and swelling

Galvanic

*Not effective on lovesick bleeding hearts

Page 37: Proofed -zap your pain

Galvanic quickly increases blood

supply to the area and helps reduce

edema.

Galvanic

Page 38: Proofed -zap your pain

Last…but not least:Ultrasound!

Page 39: Proofed -zap your pain

Ultrasound

When most people hear the word ultrasound, this is what

comes to mind…

Page 40: Proofed -zap your pain

Ultrasound

But ultrasound can also be used for healing.

Page 41: Proofed -zap your pain

Ultrasound It uses ultrasonic sound waves to

excite the production of collagen and

increase mast cells in the injured area.

Page 42: Proofed -zap your pain

Ultrasound

The overall effect is a speedier healing time

Page 43: Proofed -zap your pain

TENS EMS IF Galvanic Ultrasound

Collectively these devices are referred to as electro-therapy

Page 44: Proofed -zap your pain

Talk to your doctor or

chiropractor to find out

which one is best for you!

I wonder what he’s thinking

about

I wonder what electro-

therapy device I need

Page 45: Proofed -zap your pain
