INFORMATION

INFORMATION

The BMR ReVive™ unit is intended to provide relief from pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the lower back due to strain from
exercise or normal daily activities.

How your BMR ReVive unit works

Your portable BMR ReVive unit sends comfortable electrical signals through adhesive GelPads™ which are placed on your skin to stimulate the
nerves in your lower back. The stimulation interferes with pain signals normally sent to your brain, so that you feel less pain or no pain at all.
You may use your unit as Iittle as a few minutes a day or as long as is comfortable. This treatment does not work for everyo

ne. However, when
used as directed, it can be a safe, non-addictive, non-invasive pain reliever. If your pain does not improve, becomes more than mild or if it continues
for four to six days, stop using the BMR ReVive unit and consult your physician.

It is important that you read this section before beginning your treatment with BMR ReVive.

Contra-indications: Who should not use the BMR ReVive unit

• Do not use the BMR ReVive unit if you have a cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillators or any other implanted metallic or electronic unit.

The electrical stimulation could interfere with the correct operation of these units.

• Do not use the BMR ReVive unit if you have undiagnosed chronic pain until the reason for the pain is identified.

Warnings:

• If you are under the care of a physician, consult with your physician before using this unit. Electrical stimulation may disrupt the beating of the

heart, which could result in death.

• Do not use BMR ReVive if you are pregnant.

• The long-term effects of using the BMR ReVive unit are not known.

• Do not place the GelPads on or near your heart. Electrical stimulation may disrupt the beating of the heart, which could result in death.

• Do not place the GelPads around or near your neck or mouth. Electrical stimulation can cause muscle spasms that may be strong enough to

make breathing difficult, disrupt the beating of your heart or have an unhealthy effect on your blood pressure. These reactions can be harmful
and possibly result in death.

• Do not place the GelPads on or around your head. The effects of electrical stimulation on the brain are unknown.

• Do not use the GelPads if you suffer from cancer because the effects of electronic stimulation of cancerous tissue are not known.

• Do not use this unit while sleeping.

• Do not use if your back feels numb.

• Do not place the GelPads over the menstruating or pregnant womb.

• Do not use the BMR ReVive unit in or near water, including a bathtub, shower, hot tub or swimming pool.

• Use the GelPads only on normal, healthy, clean and dry skin. Do not use the GelPads on open wounds or rashes, or over swollen, red, infected

or inflamed skin.

• Never use the BMR ReVive unit without the belt and GelPads provided.

• If you have ever had back surgery, consult your Physician before using the BMR ReVive unit.

Precautions for safe use:

• Keep this manual handy whenever you use your BMR ReVive unit.

• The BMR ReVive unit is not effective for pain associated with Central Pain Syndromes. Central pain refers to pain originating in the central

nervous system, which is the brain and spinal cord.

• The BMR ReVive unit is for low-back pain only, and should be placed only around your lower back and fastened in the front by your abdomen.

• The BMR ReVive unit may not work for everyone. The effectiveness depends on personal conditions.

• If you have had medical or physical treatment for your back, consult with your treatment provider before using the BMR ReVive unit.

• Turn off the stimulator if the stimulation feels unpleasant or does not provide pain relief.

• Keep your BMR ReVive unit out of the reach of children.

• Use your stimulator only with the accessories recommended by the manufacturer.

• Do not use the BMR ReVive unit when driving, operating machinery or during any activity in which stimulating your muscles might put you at

risk of injury.

• To avoid unpleasant stimulation, always turn OFF the power before removing belt or GelPads.

Get your physician’s permission before using BMR ReVive if:

• You have suspected or diagnosed heart problems.

• You have suspected or diagnosed epilepsy.

• You have a tendency to bleed internally following an injury.

• You recently had surgery, or have ever had surgery on your back.

• Areas of skin lack normal sensations, such as skin that tingles or is numb.

• Skin under one or more GelPads feels irritated after using the stimulator for a long period of time, use the stimulator for a shorter period of

time.

Adverse Reactions

• Some people report skin reactions and burns when electronic stimulators are used.

Note: It is quite normal to see a slight reddening of the skin unde

r the GelPads during or after the treatment. The redness will normally disappear
within 30 minutes. If the redness does not disappear within this time or if your skin feels irritated or itchy then stop using BMR ReVive and consult
your physician.
