General Knowledge of ACU-Treatment & Stimulation (Low frequency)

What is frequency?

It is the number of electrical stimulation in one second for the body, measured in the unit of Hertz (Hz).

What is Stimulation? Inside all the living body, there is always certain special current. Of course, there is no exception for human’s body. All of our parts, including heart, brain, muscle, nerve, etc, emit insensitive and very weak current, which is called bioelectricity. It plays an essential role in the normal operation of the body. Therefore, if the bioelectricity is abnormal, the body will also be abnormal.

Effect of low frequency stimulation Having therapeutic effect on the chronic pain, muscle soreness, paralysis, etc. is capable of promoting the secretion of pain-inhibiting materials and promoting the blood circulation. Mechanism of low frequency stimulation treatment 1. Electrode pad structure The low frequency current enters the (+) pole and flows towards the (-) pole. The device can automatically switch between (+) and (-) poles.

(+) pole can excite the nerve to activate the paralytic nerve and muscle activities.

5

(-) pole can restrain the neural activities so as to achieve the abirritation and sedation. 2. Different role due to different function When the frequency increases, the feeling will be changed from "knock" to "rub" and "press". The device can more effectively alleviate the muscle soreness and pain. Principle of low frequency stimulation treatment Muscle's pumping role The low frequency current causes the shrinking and loosening of the muscle, and then the muscle's pumping role starts to act. When it's loose, the blood is input at a large quantity. When it shrinks, the metabolized blood is emitted. Such action is circulating to promote the smooth flow of the blood. This is the auxiliary physical treatment which can relieve the pain caused due to the stiff muscle, blocking the transmission of pain signal: Input the low frequency current at the painful position, acting on the mechanism transmitting the pain, then it is hard for the brain to receive the pain signal.

Function and Features

Microcomputer Therapy Apparatus DM-68A Introduction This product is developed based on the theory of Physics,Bionics,body inductive resistance dectective theory, acupuncturology, magnetotherapy resonance theory, Chinese traditional medical science and modern micro electronic technology, together with many experiences of clinical practice. It not only have the mode of five Chinese Medical Fuction which is Hammering, Acupuncture, Cupping, Scraping, Massage etc., and the model of integrated prescription for blood pressure reduction, neck, waist and leg; but also it has been granted with the fuction of heating with pads. The pads could produce temperature by the degree of 45-55, which will make the treatment more effectively to ease fatigue and cure peripheral nerve injury and paralysis. 1.1Treatment Funtion The device compose the electricity with five kinds of micro-current programme simulating human body, which directly take effect on the Acu-point, using low-frequency acupuncture to stimulate your feel, to restrain sympathetic nerve, to expand the blood vessels, and enhance the body's tissues phagocytosis, finally to achieve anti-inflammatory and detumescence. Meanwhile,it has therapeutic effect on the chronic pain, muscle soreness, paralysis, etc. and is capable of promoting the secretion of pain-inhibiting materials and promoting the blood circulation. 1.2 Diagnosis Function (How to find the acu-point)

Inside all the living bodies, there is always certain special resistance and current. According to the resistance theory for different parts of the body, different points or diseased organs, using the intelligence of microcomputer CPU and the technology of frequency conversion digital biologic 6

1.6 Low-frequency Treatment Function After confirming the position of acu-point, you may easily start the treatment function at once. At

this moment, muscle may have fierce reaction. If the relative organ is in the state of subhealth or sickness, the feel will be more intensive. The low frequency current causes the shrinking and loosening of the muscle, and then the muscle's pumping role starts to act. When it's loose, the blood is input at a large quantity. When it shrinks, the metabolized blood is emitted. Such action is circulating to promote the smooth flow of the blood. This is the auxiliary physical treatment which can relieve the pain caused due to the stiff muscle, blocking the transmission of pain signal: Input the low frequency current at the painful position, acting on the mechanism transmitting the pain, then it is hard for the brain to receive the pain signal. The effect of low frequency stimulation, which have therapeutic effect on the chronic pain, muscle soreness, paralysis, etc. is capable of promoting the secretion of pain-inhibiting materials and promoting the blood circulation.

Point the Detector Head to the acu-points on your palm. After press the selection,it will become Low-frequency electric Acupuncture Funtion,then you could adjust the intensity and adjust the frequency as well (fast or slow) and use the detector to treat the point which is subhealthy. 3. Best therapeutic time for each point: Point where the screen shows the maximum number is the best

position for electrical acupuncture. Every treatment should last for 5-15 minutes. 4. Once an acupuncture point which reflects weak organ is located, point the Detector Head of the

device onto this acupuncture point for treatment. Adjust the intensity slowly and gradually, until you feel comfortable

Notice: Before locating for the next acu-point, the head should be moved away from the skin and when the number on the right

side of the screen become zero, you may repeat the auc-point locating function.

Please sit well and be calm. Relax for 15 minutes before using Diagnosis Function.

1. Please use constant and sufficient pressure upon the skin during diagnosis. Do not over-press or jab at the skin.

2. Do not speak while doing diagnosis.

3. As this apparatus diagnosis health condition on the basis of the bioelectricity, which floats and varies from time to

time, thus you will receive health condition values range between +/- 2 units during diagnosis. Please use the

medium value for calculation and diagnosis.

4. Due to various reasons, the bioelectricity varies individually. Even the same person may have different health values

because of the skin condition. Besides, difficulty may be caused in locating acupuncture points. To accurately locate

the acupuncture points under different conditions, please practice the following methods carefully.

Suggestions on typical skin conditions are as below:

Dry Skin: for excessively dry skin (such as being caused by central heating or dry weather), rub it with a piece of wet cloth

before locating an acupuncture point. Otherwise, “Standard Data” cannot be shown and the buzzer may not sound.

Wet Skin: high moisture or sweating (such as being caused by humid temperature, after having sport or a bath) must be

dried from the surface of skin, because wet skin surface will produce higher values and the buzzer may keep ringing.

Generally speaking, the skin surface of an acupuncture point should be cleaned to get rid of its excessive oil or moisture.

The oil and moisture on the detector head should be cleaned with a piece of dry cloth after treatment.

5. Please make sure the Rechargeable batteries have enough power.
