3.2 Selecting Therapy Modes

The OLED display allows you to select from three primary therapy modes: Heat, Cold, and Contrast. Use the mode selection buttons to cycle through these options.

• Heat Mode: Ideal for warming up muscles and increasing blood flow before activity. Adjust heat levels (1-5) using the dedicated buttons.
• Cold Mode: Recommended for reducing inflammation and aiding muscle recovery after activity. Adjust cold levels (1-5) using the dedicated buttons.
• Contrast Therapy: Alternates between hot and cold cycles to promote circulation and reduce swelling. The device will automatically cycle through pre-set hot and cold intervals.

3.3 Adjusting Compression Levels

The device offers five levels of built-in compression. Use the compression adjustment buttons on the control unit to increase or decrease the intensity. Compression helps to push the thermal effects deeper into the tissue.
