TREATMENT OF HYPERHIDROSIS WITH IONTOPHORESIS |
 |
Protocol
Use channel 1 (other channels inactive for this programme).
Hyperhidrosis programme: The first session will be conducted with the electrical density automatically provided (by default) of 0.05 mA/cm2. You must then increase this electrical density by 0.01 in each of the subsequent sessions. (First session: D = 0.05 mA/cm2 / Second session: D = 0.06 mA/cm2 / Third session: D = 0.07 mA/cm2 etc.)
|
|
Treatment frequency
Three sessions a week until remission of the symptoms, generally between 5 and 10 sessions.
|
Patient position
The patient is seated with feet or hands immersed in the basin, with the palms or soles resting on the electrodes.
|
|
Electrode positions
Use channel 1, connecting the + and – outputs to the large red iontophoresis electrodes, then place the electrodes in the bottom of a nonmetal basin two-thirds full of tap water.
