Posted: Thu Feb 04, 2010 1:25 am Post subject: Initial treatment for Hidrex PS |
|
|
Hi I have just recieved my Hidrex PS and have just read the instruction manual. It says for initial treatment to do three weekly 15 minute treatments. However from reading threads on this forum it seems people are doing daily treatments?
Also do I use the factory voltage settings (20 volts for hands & 30 volts for feet)?
My question is - What voltage and how often should I be starting my treatment?
Thanks |

I have read those threads but it is not clear as to how often I should be doing the treatments. The instruction manual says three times a week while your thread seems to say daily.
Which one is it? Three times a week or daily?
Thanks
addition:
Firstly thanks for your prompt replies!
I have been doing a bit more reading on the principles of electricity and I am a bit confused.
It has been stated that -
"Electricity DOES NOT take the path of least resistance. It takes all paths available—in inverse proportion to the resistance of the paths. Current flows through ALL available paths. The magnitude of the current flowing in each path depends on the voltage and resistance of each path."
My question is if this is the case then how has wearing gloves reduced the effect of ionto on the palms of my hands? If the statement above is true then wearing gloves should not reduce the effect on my palms as it will still be receiving the same amount of current as not wearing gloves?
Could you please clarify this for me? |

Initial (without success) everyday
then do the maintenance treatment as mentioned in my post
current path: through the fact the current can be divided through the skin area you must say in example of the hands the skin area treated is 2,5 times larger than only treating the thenar
for the soles it is a bit more e.g. 30*12cm=360cm² and when wearing gloves you have 30*12+20*12+2*5*30+10²*3,14cm=1214 cm²0
so ther is less current on each cm² and when you got little injuries you have a "hot spot" there: in this area the current is much much higher than onto the healty skin _________________ You are welcome...
