Lumbago
When?
Lumbago is principally the result of a sharp and intense contraction of
the lower back muscles (lumbar region).
Why?
To obtain a reduction in the muscular tension.
How?
Muscular twitches produced by a very low frequency (1 Hz) reduce the
muscle tension during rest of the muscles stimulated.
Electrodes
Electrodes positioned according to the lower back muscle where you
want to reduce tension. See Position of the electrodes.
Intensity
The stimulation should feel pleasant and give muscle twitches, if possible
visible (or at least palpable). Remember that the patient often feels the
stimulation before contractions become visible.
Option 2+2
Yes. If the patient experiences discomfort during stimulation, the 2+2
function allows this program (ch 1+2) to be combined with a TENS
program (ch 3+4) to produce the muscular twitches more quickly and
more comfortably.
