Quick Reference Guide for Which Hz To Use

500 Hz – High-Intensity Activation


This high-frequency setting is ideal for acute injuries.

  • When to Use: If you’re dealing with severe pain, nerve compression, or significant muscle weakness.
  • Goals: It rapidly 'wakes up' your nerves and muscles, providing an immediate boost in activation and kick-starting the healing process.
    For example, if you’ve experienced a traumatic injury that leaves you with severe dysfunction, 500 Hz can jump-start your recovery."

300 Hz – Intense Neuromuscular Re-Education


This setting delivers intense neuromuscular stimulation, just a step down from 500 Hz.

  • When to Use: In the early recovery phase of a moderate injury or when muscle weakness is present.
  • Goals: It helps restore motor control and build strength while reducing acute pain.
    This frequency is great for those who need a strong stimulus to re-educate their muscles without the full intensity of 500 Hz."

  • 165 Hz – Moderate Stimulation for Transitional Recovery

This moderate frequency is perfect during the transitional recovery phase.

  • When to Use: When you’re moving from the acute injury stage to ongoing rehabilitation, especially if you still experience some pain and weakness.
  • Goals: It gradually improves range of motion, increases muscle strength, and enhances coordination.
    This setting is ideal for patients who are steadily recovering but need a balanced stimulus to keep progressing."

 

135 Hz – Gentle Activation for Chronic Rehabilitation

A gentle frequency for chronic rehabilitation.

  • When to Use: For long-term issues such as chronic joint pain or inflammation, or when your tissues are sensitive.
  • Goals: It reduces chronic pain, promotes blood flow, and improves joint mobility over time without overstimulating the tissue.
    For those with persistent discomfort, 135 Hz provides a safer, sustained therapy option."
  • 40 Hz – Low-Frequency Modulation for Maintenance

A low-frequency setting designed for maintenance.

  • When to Use: Once you’ve made significant recovery progress, or for mild pain modulation and injury prevention.
  • Goals: It supports neuromuscular balance, enhances joint stability, and helps prevent re-injury—especially useful for older athletes or those prone to recurring issues."

10 Hz – Ultra-Low Frequency for Pain Relief and Flexibility

Our ultra-low frequency setting.

  • When to Use: In late-stage rehabilitation or for chronic pain management where maximum comfort is required.
  • Goals: It gently relaxes hypertonic muscles, reduces chronic pain, and increases overall flexibility and range of motion with minimal discomfort.
    This setting is best for maintaining long-term improvements while keeping therapy as comfortable as possible."


In summary:

  • Use 500 Hz for rapid, high-intensity activation in acute injuries.
  • Choose 300 Hz when early recovery calls for strong neuromuscular re-education.
  • Apply 165 Hz for moderate, transitional recovery, and 135 Hz for gentle, chronic rehabilitation.
  • Opt for 40 Hz in the maintenance phase to support balance and prevent re-injury, and 10 Hz for ultra-low, comfortable stimulation aimed at reducing chronic pain and enhancing flexibility
