Electrode
Placement Guidelines
Initial
Placement Patterns
For
radiating pain: place the
electrodes near the spine
For
specific joint or distal arm pain: Place
the electrodes nearer the area of pain,
according to the chart
For
deep pain of myotome or sclerotome
origin: place the electrodes
several spinal segments more proximal
than the segmental innervations shown
Interferential
Technique. Use the interferential
placement of four electrodes to:
Bombard
localized are of pain (e.g., hip or knee)
Achieve
greater pain relief if use of two
electrodes has proved unsatisfactory (see
Low Back Pain on chart)
