DOCUMENTS IN PDF FORMAT CLICK HERE INDICATIONS FOR USE Temporary increase in local blood circulation and tissue healing for the
relief of minor muscle and joint aches, pains and stiffness and relaxation of
muscles; for muscle spasms, minor pain and stiffness associated with arthritis.
Temporary relief of wrist or hand pain associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. RESEARCH INDICATES: Photo-Biological effects similar to photosynthesis
with deep and superficial activity Stimulate the production of collagen. Collagen is used to repair and replace
damaged tissue. Increasing collagen production will decrease the amount of scar
tissue in the injured area. Stimulate the release of adenosine triphosphate, (ATP). When there is an
increase in ATP the energy level in the cells increases, thereby allowing the
cells to accept nutrients and expel waste products faster. Increase lymphatic system activity, which allows swelling to be relieved
faster. Increase RNA and DNA synthesis, which helps damaged cells to be replaced more
quickly. Reduce the excitability of nerve tissue. The light energy enters the body as
negative ions, which requires the body to send calcium and other positive ions
to the area being treated. Theses ions help regulate the nerves, which in turn
relieves pain. Stimulate fibroblastic activity which helps in the repair process. CONTRAINDICATIONS Pregnancy-do not treat, concern is directly over the uterus. Suspicious
lesions, potential cancer. Direct eye exposure. Do not treat over vagus nerve
,cardiac area or thyroid gland. Do not treat over area recently injected with steroid agent. TREATMENT SCHEDULE Minimum 3 per week 2 weeks Treat area of tissue lesion Treat any tender trigger points Treat relevant acupuncture points MEDX LASER QUICK START GUIDE

![]() The Contrast Stimulator has all the convenience of a heating pad or cold pack, but with the added benefits of traditional hot & cold thermal contrast therapy. With thermal contrast therapy the temperature cycles back and forth several times between a hot and a cold temperature - something not easily done using packs or baths. Apply cold or heat or cycle between both. Thermal cycling can be under manual control with independantly adjustable temperature settings for the cold temperature and the hot temperature - or simply use the Automatic Cycling feature to cycle between preprogammed temperatures automatically 3 times. For manual operation, two dials provide a way to set the cold temperature and the hot temperature. The head of the wand will be driven to the cold or the hot temperature depending on how you set a toggle switch that sits in the middle of the front panel. Dial settings for the HOT temperature are from 90°F to 120°F. The nominal temperature of 104°F is clearly marked. The Contrast Stimulator is designed to prevent overheating. Dial settings for the COLD temperature are from 30°F to 60°F. The nominal operating temperature of 56°F is clearly marked. The lowest temperature that can be reached is somewhat dependent on the time allowed for the head of the wand to cool, and the ambient operating temperature Using the toggle switch in the center of the front panel, you can easily change manually between the two temperatures or turn off power to the wand. The Contrast Stimulator comes complete with...
