Where to Place the Pads:
There is NOT a specific correct way to position or place the pads. The best approach is to place the pads wherever they relieve pain the most. Experiment and see what will work best for you.
General Guidelines for Back of Hand:
Use one channel and two pads. Place one pad (either one) directly on the pain. Place the other pad either directly below the other pad (at least a pad’s width apart).
See Photo for Example
Use one channel and two pads. Place one pad on each side of the pain (at least a pad’s width apart).
General Guidelines for Pain Referred from Another Area:
An example would be hand pain that is coming (referred) from the neck. Use of two channels and four pads. Using channel one (yellow pads), place the two pads along the nerve pathway. Using channel two (green pads), place one pad on the pain and one below the pain (at least a pad’s width apart).
