JStim 1000 Hand Arthritis System


The JStim 1000 Arthritis Joint System is a proprietary electrotherapy device that works in tandem with soft, multi-layer conductive fabric and safe infrared heat to deliver effective and efficient therapy to the afflicted joint. These combined therapies are compressed against the treatment site using compression wraps, allowing the silver garment electrodes and infrared heat band to emit therapy directly into the target joint
It is safe, effective, and convenient to use your JStim at night while sleeping. The JStim is a cumulative therapy, and should be part of a therapy regimen for 6-12 months for optimal results.
The JStim works by sending tiny proprietary electrical signals to the joint, while combining infrared heat and compression. Working in tandem with electrotherapy, the infrared heat therapy provides deep tissue treatment. This may help the user with increased blood circulation and reduced pain, and may potentially provide therapeutic results for the treatment of osteoarthiritis and/or rheumatoid arthritis.
The Jstim is an all natural, and non-invasive treatment option for those looking to reduce pain and therapeutically treat their Osteoarthritis of the knee or Rheumatoid Arthritis of the hand.

The JStim 1000 Hand System is similar to the knee system, but is worn like a glove. This particular treatment setup consists of silver garment fabric in the shape of a glove, combined with Infrared heat fabric, and finally a special compression glove to be fitted over the conductive components in order to block the outside current and to give a combination of treatments to the affected hands.

COMPONENTS:

Soft Knee Wrap (Knee model only):
The soft wrap is made of comfortable and breathable neoprene material, which wraps around the knee and thigh snugly, and comfortably. It is flexible, lightweight, and simple to wear. And multi-layer, infrared heat fabric is incorporated into the square electrodes patches. This wrap is one size fits most, but can be customized if needed.

The electrotherapy Conductive Patches are used to stimulate the target treatment areas on the knee and/or hand. Two electrode pads are used in the knee system: an active electrode over the knee (red), a grounding electrode (black) over the thigh. The Infrared Heat Band is placed under the active red patch.

Soft Hand Wrap (Hand model only):
The soft hand wrap is made of a comfortable, breathable, conductive garment material that is shaped into a one size fits all glove.

The Arm Band (Hand model only) is included to serve as the ground pad to activate the conductive glove. Infrared heat fabric is incorporated into the wrist area of the glove.

A Compression glove (Hand model only) is then fitted over the conductive and infrared components.

JStim Electrotherapy Device:
Compact and sporty, the small battery-powered JStim Electrotherapy Device generates the proprietary electrical signal that provides the therapy. The System uses a lithium-ion battery, and incorporates a patient compliance timer so as to keep a record of treatment. The Signal Generator is dual channel so that bilateral stimulation is possible (both knees or both hands).

Infrared heat band, li-polymer battery compression wrap:
The infrared heat fabric technology is used in conjunction with either the knee or hand system. When activated, the therapeutic benefits of infrared heat penetrate deep into muscles and joints.

OPERATION MODES:

The NT mode is the main treatment mode designed as a cumulative therapy to treat OA and RA. While in this mode the system needs to be worn for approximately 7 hours per day – and used for approximately 1500 hours in total. Due to the length of use per treatment session, the JStim has been designed for use while sleeping.

The DT (daytime) mode was designed to combat pain immediately. It is safe to use this mode as little or as much as needed. However, if you are seeking treatment for OA and RA, you should stick to a residual program on the NT mode. The DT stimulation mode will allow you to target pain symptoms to reduce them to a manageable level throughout the day if needed.

Your JStim is set to default on the NT mode. The user has to command the device into the DT mode.

The JStim 1000 Arthritis Joint System was designed with the athlete in mind, especially the aging athlete. It is user friendly to operate, comfortable to wear, and convenient to use.
