How to Use
InterX therapy is a non-invasive and drug-free treatment option that uses electrical stimulation to promote natural healing and alleviate pain in the body. The handheld InterX devices are versatile and can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, from acute injuries to chronic pain.
During InterX therapy, the InterX® 5002 professional or InterX® 1000 personal medical device is applied to the skin over the affected area. The device emits electrical impulses that stimulate the nerves and tissues, triggering the body's natural healing response. Patients typically experience a comfortable prickling sensation during the treatment.
The intensity level of the treatment may vary from session to session or within a single treatment session. It's important not to allow the stimulation to be uncomfortable or painful. The recommended treatment time should not be exceeded.
It's important to note that certain conditions and injuries may require professional treatment, and appropriate advice and information should always be sought in these circumstances.
InterX therapy is a safe and effective alternative to traditional pain management methods that often involve drugs or invasive procedures.
