Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the WiTouch Pro device. WiTouch Pro is a unique wireless
remote controlled pain relief device incorporating TENS technology to specically target back pain. The thin and exible design perfectly contours the back for maximum surface contact. The advanced electronics design maximizes energy use, providing over 150 30-minute treatment sessions per battery life.
This innovative device is safe, drug-free, easy to use, discreet and comfortable to wear, and most importantly allows you to control your pain to maintain an active lifestyle.
Indications for Use: For the symptomatic relief and management of chronic intractable back pain and relief of pain of the upper and lower back associated with arthritis. It is
also used for adjunctive treatment for post-surgical and post-trauma acute back pain.

Preparation for Use
Before using your WiTouch Pro you will need to sync the remote control, apply the gel pads to the device, and prepare the device for a treatment.
Applying the Gel Pads to the WiTouch Pro Device
The gel pads are intended for single person use. They will last, depending on skin type, oils, and pH levels, approximately two to ve applications. Replace the gel pads when they no longer adhere completely. Follow these steps to apply the gel pads:
1. Separate two gel pads.
2. Remove the blue liner from the side
being applied to the electrode area. Do not remove the green protective liner.
3. Align the shape of the rst gel pad with
the electrode area. Apply the gel pad onto the electrode area and rmly press across the entire surface to ensure good adhesion.
4. Repeat steps 1 – 3 for the second
gel pad.

Skin Preparation
Trim, not shave, excessive hair on the treatment area.
Wash the skin and dry completely.

Use
The WiTouch Pro exclusive, patent pending 3-stage waveform incorporates both clinical theories of TENS to provide pain relief. The 30-minute stimulation treatment is delivered as follows:
Stage 1: 5 minutes of high frequency stimulation that initiates a feeling of pain relief by suppressing the transmission of pain signals in nerves. This stage provides a high sensory sensation and allows you to establish a comfortable intensity setting for the entire treatment.
Stage 2: 20 minutes of low frequency stimulation that initiates an increased endorphin release in the body to reduce the sensitivity to pain for an extended period of time following the 30-minute treatment. This stage provides a low sensory sensation often described as a gentle tapping sensation.
Stage 3: 5 minutes of high frequency stimulation, providing the same high sensory sensation experienced in Stage 1. This stage allows you to maintain the feeling of pain relief and complete the overall treatment with a comfortable high sensory sensation.
Treatment Recommendations
• You can leave the device in position for multiple treatments during the day. It will
automatically turn Off after two (2) hours of inactivity.
• It is recommended you wait a minimum of 30 minutes between treatments.
Conducting a Treatment
Always read the safety warnings before conducting a treatment. Follow these steps to conduct a treatment:
1. Remove the green liners from the gel pads by slowly peeling the liner diagonally from an
inside corner to the opposite
outside corner. Important! Avoid contact of the gel pad with other objects. Contact with other objects may affect the pads adhesion properties. Save the green liners for storage of the device.
2. Press, and hold, the On/Off
button on the WiTouch Pro
device for one (1) second. The LED will begin ashing indicating the device is ready for use. Note: The WiTouch Pro device must always be ON prior to application.
3. Align the center of the device over the spine and place the device on your back in the area of pain. If you cannot place the device properly, ask another person for assistance. Important! Do not apply the gel pads/electrodes directly over the spine.

ulation intensity can be controlled on the
WiTouch Pro device with either the remote control or the buttons located on the device. This allows for adjustment by either you or your healthcare professional.
6. Press the Start/Stop button on the remote control to stop the treatment at any time. Treatment will automatically stop after 30 minutes. Note: If a treatment is stopped and restarted the treatment will restart at the rst stage.
Removing the WiTouch Pro Important! Do not remove the device until the treatment has stopped.
1. After treatment, or when you want to remove the device, grasp the edge of the device
and gel pad to ensure the gel pad does not stay on the skin. Slowly peel the device away from the skin.
2. Align, and place the green protective liners back on the gel pads. Ensure the pads are completely covered.
