7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your DR-HO'S Travel Foot Therapy Pads, consider the following:

• No Sensation:
  • Ensure the pads are securely connected to your DR-HO'S Pain Therapy System.
  • Verify that the Pain Therapy System is powered on and the intensity level is set appropriately. Start with a low setting and gradually increase.
  • Confirm your bare feet are making full contact with the pads, especially the heel area.
• Pads Not Working:
  • These pads require a separate DR-HO'S Pain Therapy System to function. They do not operate independently.
  • Check the connector cable for any visible damage.
  • Ensure the connector plug is compatible with your specific DR-HO'S Pain Therapy System model. Older models may have different connector types.
• Discomfort During Use:
  • Reduce the intensity level on your Pain Therapy System.
  • Ensure your feet are clean and free of lotions or oils that might affect conductivity.
