Get to Know the Types of Pads
You will receive different types of pads when you order your Pain Therapy System or your Pain Therapy System Pro:
Regular Gel Body Pads: These long-lasting, highly-conductive small pads are sized to target painful spots with greater accuracy.
Large Gel Body Pads: These larger pads are also long-lasting and highly conductive. They are perfect for targeting broader areas of pain such as the legs, the arms and the shoulders.
Both types of gel pads can be used between 70-100 times before they should be replaced. You can order Large Pad Replacement Kits and Small Pad Replacement Kits at any time. You can also browse DR-HO'S accessories for other helpful pain-relief products.
Important Notes for Pad Placement
Here are some important tips to consider no matter where you are placing your pads:
- Always place pads on clean, dry, healthy skin
- Place pads near or surrounding the painful area, at least 1 inch apart
- Make sure there is a linear path between the two pads
- Do not let the pads touch
- Wet the pads with a little bit of water before placing them on the skin
