The Basics of BioStimTherapy
Placing Electrodes


Here are a few simple guidleines for the ideal placement of electrodes.        

 Pain Relief

 

Specific Placement

1. Source of pain should fall within the line of current (a straight line drawn from one electrode to the other). Note: Method C should NOT be used by women during pregnancy or in times of menstruation.

General Placement

2. Ear to Ear Stimulation can be used because there is a high density of nerves in the facial region, as this will maximise release of endorphins - the body's natural pain-killers.

3. Wrist to Wrist Stimulation can be used because there are several major nerve trunks close to the surface of the skin in this area, as this will maximise release of endorphins - the body's natural pain-killers.

4. Base-of-Spine to Base-of-Neck Stimulation can be used to relieve pain in the trunk, back or leg - because spinal cord stimulation can be used to block pain signals from reaching the brain.

 Healing

 

The injury should fall within the line of current (once again, this is an imaginary line, drawn from one electrode to the other).

 Sleep & Relaxation

 

Ear to Ear and/or Wrist to Wrist Stimulation can be used, because of the high number of nerves that are activated into sending sedative messages to the brain.

 Exercise

 

Electrodes are placed over the muscle belly. Some fine adjustment will need to be made by each individual to find the exact position on each muscle that works the best.
