Using SENSUS is easy. When you receive your device it will have detailed instructions on how to get started. There is also an instructional video available here. Within 10 minutes you should be ready to start therapy.

Before using SENSUS for the first time you will configure the device for the right intensity level for you. The configuration process helps SENSUS determine the necessary intensity to meet your unique needs for pain relief. Configuration is easy and it takes about a minute.

Operating Modes

SENSUS has two operating modes:

Regular mode - the user starts each therapy session manually.
Continuous mode - therapy sessions will automatically start every other hour.

Use During Sleep

SENSUS may be used at bedtime to help you get to sleep and, if in continuous mode, the device will automatically start therapy sessions throughout the night to control your pain and help you sleep better.

Ongoing Care

SENSUS requires minimal care and involves only changing the electrode and periodically charging the battery. The electrode can be used for 2 weeks. After two weeks, dispose of the electrode and apply a new one. The device utilizes a rechargeable battery. A fully charged battery will typically run for 30 or more therapy sessions before needing to be recharged.

Sensus provides pain releif by stimulating the nerves that carry normal non-painful sensations to your brain. Stimulation of these nerves changes the levels of certain natural chemicals in your nervous system that decreases your pain.
