The PainPod Heat is a powerful yet simple to use Medical Device that can be applied to different areas on the body to alleviate pain, improve muscle condition and support overall health.
The PainPod Heat delivers pre-programmed electric pulses, with a wide range of pulse frequencies covering TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation), both of which can be used with or without the heat application for additional benefits and at varying intensity levels.
By consulting the placement chart and selecting different modes and intensity levels, you can personally determine the most comfortable and effective way to use the PainPod Heat.
