Interactive
Neurostimulation

How it works

 

 

Traditional electrical stimulation delivers a fixed signal throughout treatment. InterX works differently. Our waveform is interactive on a number of different levels, unlike other modalities, our waveform parameters are constantly adjusting to changes within the tissue. As the body's response changes, so does the stimulation.

That continuous feedback creates an ongoing conversation with the body throughout treatment.

The body helps shape the signal

Most electrical stimulation devices deliver a preset signal. Once treatment begins, that signal remains largely unchanged, regardless of how the body responds.

InterX works differently.

When the InterX electrodes are applied to the skin, the body becomes part of the electrical circuit. The device continuously measures changes in skin impedance and automatically adjusts its output in response. As the body's response changes, so does the stimulation.

This continuous feedback loop is what makes InterX interactive.

How the technology adapts

InterX uses interactive neurostimulation to continuously adjust stimulation throughout treatment. Rather than delivering a fixed output, the device responds to the body's changing electrical state.

That interactive process happens continuously through four integrated elements.

Electrode and Skin Contact-2

It measures.



The skin becomes part of the electrical circuit, allowing the device to continuously measure changes in skin impedance and identify neurologically active treatment sites.


It adapts.



As stimulation changes the skin's impedance, the device immediately detects those changes and automatically adjusts its waveform and output. This continuous feedback helps maintain a responsive signal throughout treatment.

It concentrates.



Closely spaced electrodes allow high-density stimulation to be delivered precisely where it is needed without broad muscle contraction commonly associated with conventional electrical stimulation.

It repeats.



This feedback loop continues throughout treatment, allowing the device to continuously respond as the body's electrical state changes.

The result is a signal that continuously adapts with the body rather than delivering a fixed output from beginning to end.

Where the technology lives

The interactive response isn't created by a protocol or manual technique. It is built into every InterX device. The technology works because four elements work together continuously:

InterX Waveforms

Device electronics

The device processes the body's changing response and automatically adjusts the stimulation.

Interactive waveform

Rather than delivering a fixed output, the waveform continuously adapts as the body's electrical state changes throughout treatment.

Electrode configuration

Closely spaced, highly conductive electrodes concentrate stimulation precisely where it is needed while making the skin part of the electrical circuit.

Continuous impedance feedback

As stimulation changes the skin's impedance, the device immediately detects those changes and adjusts its output. This continuous feedback loop is what makes InterX interactive.

Why InterX® is so effective

The InterX device identifies and treats the areas that are showing low impedance. These are areas of skin where nerve endings are displaying a response to injury or pain. The stimulation is delivered exactly where the body needs it.

 

Interactive Neurostimulation

The high amplitude, short pulse width, dynamic waveform elicits a greater response from the body than other electrical stimulation. The InterX has closely spaced electrodes which means the current is very high density, very specific and not restricted by muscle contraction. The waveform changes constantly as the body responds to the stimulation and pain relief. This stops the body accommodating to the stimulation making it more effective. It also means that there is no need to use messy conductive gels, just applying water will enhance treatment.

Treatment time that matches the need

The time needed for treatment can vary but averages approx. 15 minutes. Very short treatments can be used on the sidelines of a sports game taking only a few minutes. When treating more difficult chronic conditions, the session may last up to 30 minutes as there is a larger area of the body to scan when incorporating neurologically related areas.

Why InterX is effective 2

Why responsiveness matters in practice

Continuous adaptation changes more than the signal. It changes how treatment can be delivered.

Maintains a responsive signal

Because the device continuously adjusts its output, it helps reduce accommodation and maintain stimulation quality as the body's response changes throughout treatment.

Guides treatment by response

Scanning identifies active treatment sites based on the body's changing electrical response rather than relying solely on static electrode placement. This allows treatment to be guided by the body's response.

Supports movement during treatment

InterX is designed to be integrated with movement, manual therapy, rehabilitation, and functional activity while treatment continues. Recovery isn't separated from function—it can become part of it.

Extends care beyond the clinic

Portable devices and interchangeable accessory electrodes allow the same interactive technology to be used in the clinic, on the sideline, during travel, and at home under provider guidance.

Clinical Evidence

Published clinical studies have evaluated bio-adaptive neurostimulation with the InterX device—studied in the literature as non-invasive interactive neurostimulation (NIN)—for pain management and functional recovery within its FDA-cleared indications.
