Safe, effective, and convenient. You can sleep with it on! Rechargeable battery that charges like a cell phone!
JSTIM® Joint Therapy Sleep System for the Knee This nighttime knee pain relief wrap is safe, effective, and convenient. You can sleep with it on! Rechargable battery that charges like a cell phone!
The JStim Joint Therapy System is a combinational electrotherapy TENS unit for knee pain that works simultaneously with soft, multi-layered conductive fabric and safe infrared heat to deliver effective and efficient therapy to the afflicted joint. These combined therapies are compressed against the treatment site using compression wraps, allowing the silver garment electrodes and infrared heat band to emit therapy directly into the target joint.
It has become a breakthrough in the methods of treating Osteosrthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. By sending tiny electrical impulses to the joint and adding compression it can work to help relieve pain, increase blood circulation, and reduce symptoms associated with Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis.
This JStim TENS unit for knee pain has two modes of operation: Daytime (DT) and Nighttime (NT).
The NT Mode is the main, intended, and default treatment mode of the JStim System. It was designed as a cumulative therapy program and is specifically for nighttime knee pain relief and/or 5 – 7 hour therapy sessions. The different treatment times you can choose from in this mode are (in hours): 1:45, 3:30, 5:15, or 7:00.
The DT Mode is simply TENS settings. It is only intended to use while awake for either short or long periods of time. DO NOT SLEEP WITH THE JSTIM DEVICE ON IN THIS SETTING! The DT Mode contains 3 Sub-Modes: Normal (N), Burst (B), and Modulation (M). In this mode there are additional treatment times that can be used instead of those found in the NT Mode. The additional treatment times are (in hours): 0:00 (indicates continuous treatment), 0:30, or 1:00.

Uses:
JStim is an external, non-narcotic, electrotherapy system which can be used as a combined therapy in reducing pain levels and symptoms associated with Arthritis (including Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis).
For optimal results it is recommended by the manufacturer to be used for 5 - 7 hours daily, 5 – 6 days per week. It works as a cumulative therapy process meaning that benefits of use and improvements are often seen over time and not immediately. Improvements typically begin after 3 months of use and after 6months to a year (approximately 1500 hours) even better results should be noticed. Once a certain pattern of relief can be seen and maintained therapy can then be scaled back.

Battery:
The JStim Joint Therapy System uses a Lithium-Ion Battery and is charged through a cord to the device while the battery is still inside similar to a cell phone battery.
The manufacturer recommends that after approximately 2000 Hours of use the battery will need to be watched and a replacement battery may be necessary.
The battery must be charged before a session begins and the charging cable will need to be removed before the device becomes operational following charging.
Directions:
Be sure to charge your unit before each treatment!
Quick steps to begin
Familiarize yourself with the components that make up the Jstim System.
Apply only to unbroken, healthy skin. (If a pre-existing rash is present, consult your physician.)
Clean and dry the treatment area to which the conductive pads are to be applied.
The Jstim wrap should come preassembled, however the electrode patches should be positioned as such:
The orange patch needs to be positioned directly on the center knee are of the inside of the wrap (to serve as the active electrode).
The black patch needs to be positioned on the upper thigh, or as far to the top of the wrap as it can go (to serve as the grounding electrode).
These should be also placed horizontally
If using your Jstim to treat both knees, alternate treatment sessions, one day per each.
Wrap the Knee Wrap correctly and be sure to have the velcro closed
Secure it with the Compression Wrap directly on the knee wrap.
Then go through the settings

Warnings:
Do not place the pads on the cartoid sinuses located at the two sides of the neck (where a doctor feels for pulse), or over the eyes.
Do not use this Jstim unit if you have a heart pacemaker or serious heart rhythm problem.
Do not place your electrodes or wraps on any non-intended body parts or treatment areas unless discussed with a physician.
Do not use the Jstim unit during pregnancy or at anytime on the abdomen during pregnancy.
The Jstim unit is not effective for pain of central origin (including headaches).
The Jstim unit should be used only under the continued supervision of a physician.
The Jstim unit has no curative value.
The Jstim is a symptomatic treatment which suppresses the sensaion of pain, which would otherwise serve as a protective mechanism.
The user must keep the device out of the reach of children.
Electronic monitoring equipment may not opperate properly when Jstim stimulation is in use.
Do not use Jstim unit if you are driving or operating machinery.
If you have epilepsy, consult your doctor about use of the Jstim.
Do not apply to broken skin.
Do not apply pads to skin that does not have normal sensation. If the skin is numb, stimulation will not be felt and too great an intensity might then be used accidentally.

TENS is a non-invasive, drug free method of controlling pain, which uses tiny electrical impulses sent through the skin to nerves in order to modify your pain perception. In most people it is effective in reducing or eliminating the pain.
Electronic Muscle Stimulation (EMS)
EMS works by sending electronic pulses to the muscle(s). This is achieved by sending low frequency electric pulses through muscle tissue causing them to gently contract. In this way the muscles are passively exercised and blood flow is increased
Galvanic Stimulators
Galvanic Stimulators use direct current, which creates an electrical field over the treated area. The positive pad works like ice, causing reduced circulation to the area under the pad. The negative pad works like heat, causing increased circulation.
Interferential
IF sends small comfortable electrical impulses through your skin to work on deeper tissue stimulation. The sensation works to prevent pain signals from reaching the brain.
Infrared
Infrared Light Therapy help the body by delivering specific light waveforms that increase circulation. Increasing circulation helps promote healing, lessen swelling, and helps in reducing pain.
Ultrasound
Portable Ultrasounds give advanced pain relief using sonic stimulation of soft tissue cells. They generate pulsed, high frequency sound waves, which travel deep into the tissue, generating vasodilation. This helps increase blood flow to the treated area.
Russian
Russian stimulation uses medium frequencies to provide stimulation to muscle groups. This is used to reduce muscle spasms as well as for muscle strengthening. This method was created to produce maximal muscle strengthening effects.
Micro Current
Microcurrent Therapy uses extremely small amounts of electrical current (millionths of an amp) to help relieve pain and heal soft tissues of the body. The electrical current used in Microcurrent Therapy is so small that it is rarely felt.
