- The 4” Snap Cables should already be snapped onto each of the 2 snaps on the outside of the BioWrap.
- Plug the blue connectors at the other end of each BioWrap cable into your BioWave Leadwire Cable.
- Clean your skin with soap and water using a washcloth in the locations that the silver fabric will touch your skin.
- Squeeze a pea size amount of BioWrap Conductive Cream onto your finger tip and rub into your skin thoroughly in the locations that the silver fabric will touch your skin.
- Keep knee and leg fairly straight. See diagrams on opposite side to put on the BioWrap and velcro it closed firmly so there is strong but comfortable compression over the silver fabric locations.
- Plug the single end of the leadwire cable into the BioWave device.
- Press the power button to turn on the BioWave device.
- Start the treatment by pressing the PLUS (+) button to increase intensity so the sensation felt is strong but still comfortable. As your body adapts to the electrical field and the sensation fades, keep pressing the PLUS (+) button to increase the intensity to maintain a strong but comfortable sensation at the treatment location.
- When the 30-minute treatment is over, disconnect the BioWave Leadwire cable from the 4” Snap Cables, remove the BioWrap from your body and store in a cool dry place.
Directions for Use
These instructions are for attaching the Knee BioWrap to the RIGHT or LEFT knee.
Squeeze a pea size amount of BioWrap Conductive Cream onto your finger tip and
rub into your skin thoroughly in the two locations that the silver fabric will
touch. Both 4” Snap Cables should already be snapped onto the 2 snaps on the
back side of the BioWrap. Attach your BioWave Leadwire cable to the two
connectors on the back of the BioWrap.
Step onto the foot icon on bottom of BioWrap and line up back of your heel
into the hole. Place top elastic strap through top D-Ring around ankle and
pull tight to create strong but comfortable compression just above the ankle.
Wrap strap around front of ankle and pull tight around back to create strong
but comfortable compression just above the ankle.
Secure Velcro strap to close. Place bottom elastic strap through bottom D-Ring
around foot and pull tight to create strong but comfortable compression around
the foot.
Wrap strap back across top of foot and pull tight to create strong but
comfortable compression around entire foot.
Secure Velcro strap to close. Make sure there are no gaps in the BioWrap anywhere
around the entire foot and around the entire ankle.
TROUBLESHOOTING
My BioWave shows a connection error but my BioWrap is plugged in
If your BioWave device shows a connection error when you are fully connected to the BioWrap, remove the BioWrap and follow these steps:
If you forgot to apply BioWave Conductive Cream:
- CLEAN YOUR SKIN. Remove BioWrap and clean your skin with soap and water in the region that the silver fabric electrodes touch your skin. Shave any excessive hair in the locations that the silver fabric electrodes touch your skin.
- APPLY A PEA-SIZE AMOUNT OF BIOWAVE CONDUCTIVE CREAM directly to skin areas that will be against the silver fabric inside the BioWrap. Gently massage BioWave Conductive Cream into the skin allowing it to absorb, before putting on the BioWrap.
If you applied too much BioWave Conductive Cream (more than a pea-size amount):
- CLEAN YOUR SKIN. Remove BioWrap and use a dry towel to remove all excess Conductive Cream from your skin and any excess cream from the silver fabric in the BioWrap. Next, reattach the BioWrap and begin the treatment.
The treatment doesn’t feel strong enough
- If the intensity is turned up to the maximum setting and the treatment doesn’t feel strong under the electrodes, pause the treatment, remove the BioWrap and apply more conductive cream to the skin in the areas the silver fabric touches the skin.
- Tighter Compression and/or More Conductive Cream = Stronger Treatment Sensation.
- Looser Compression and/or Less Conductive Cream = Less Treatment Sensation.
