The Chattanooga Continuum is a lightweight, battery-powered 2-channel stimulator built for both TENS and NMES applications. With 13 pre-programmed regimens and 2 customizable slots, you can run the same program on both channels or two different programs at once — adjusting treatment time, waveform type, pulse rate, pulse width, cycling, and ramp times to fit your routine.
This package includes the hand switch, giving you the ability to trigger stimulation remotely — useful for hands-free setups or guided sessions.

How to Use
Before you begin your first session, read the full instruction booklet included with your unit and keep it nearby for reference.
Step 1 — Preparation & Skin Setup: Clean the Application Site Wash the targeted skin area thoroughly with mild soap and water. Rinse and dry completely. Avoid applying lotions, oils, or powders prior to treatment, as they reduce electrode adhesion and conductivity. Inspect Equipment Ensure the unit is turned off before connecting any accessories. Check lead wires and electrodes for wear, fraying, or gel degradation.
Step 2 — Battery & Cable Setup: Insert Batteries Open the battery door on the back of the device and insert 2 AA batteries (alkaline or rechargeable NiMH), ensuring polarity (+ / -) matches the internal markings. Connect Lead Wires Insert the lead wire connectors into Channel 1, Channel 2, or both at the top of the unit. Attach Electrodes Push the pin ends of the lead wires firmly into the electrode connectors. Do not power the unit on until pads are applied.
Step 3 — Running a Therapy Session: Position Electrodes Place self-adhesive electrodes onto the prepared treatment area as prescribed by your clinician. Ensure Full Contact Press firmly around the edges of each pad to eliminate air pockets. Space pads at least 1–2 inches apart; never allow electrode pads to touch one another during operation.
Step 4 — Running a Therapy Session: Power On Press and hold the Power button (bottom center of the front panel) until the LCD screen illuminates. Select ProgramUse the soft keys to select your prescribed treatment program (NMES or TENS). If utilizing the 1+1 Function, configure Channel 1 (e.g., TENS for pain management) and Channel 2 (e.g., NMES for motor recruitment) independently. Set Therapy Time & Parameters Confirm or adjust the session timer, pulse rate, pulse width, and cycle times (ramp/work/rest) per your clinician's instructions. Adjust Intensity Press Start/OK. Gradually press the + (Increase) button for each active channel: For TENS: Increase intensity until a strong, comfortable tingling sensation is felt (without painful twitching). For NMES: Increase intensity until a smooth, visible muscle contraction occurs that remains within tolerable limits. Ending Session When the timer reaches zero, stimulation stops automatically. To stop manually at any time, press the Power or Home button.
Step 5 — Using the Remote Hand Switch: Connecting the Switch Plug the handheld remote trigger into the accessory jack on the unit before starting the session. Triggering Contractions: In active NMES modes, press and hold the hand switch button to trigger muscle stimulation manually. Use this during functional exercises. Release the button to transition to the rest phase.
Step 6 — Post-Treatment & Care: Power Off & Disconnect Turn off the device completely before removing electrodes. Electrode Removal Gently peel pads from the skin by the edge—never pull directly on the lead wires. Storage Re-apply pads to their plastic liners and seal them inside the airtight storage bag. Store the unit and accessories in the protective pouch away from direct sunlight or extreme heat.

UNDERSTANDING THE TECHNOLOGY
Behind the Science
The Science
Shockwave therapy uses targeted acoustic energy to stimulate biological responses associated with tissue repair, pain modulation, and improved function. Through two distinct technologies—radial pressure wave and focused shockwave—clinicians can tailor treatment to specific musculoskeletal conditions and tissue depths.
This non-invasive, evidence-informed approach offers new possibilities for managing pain and supporting recovery.
Radial Shockwave
Broadly Distributed Energy Radial pressure waves originate at the applicator and spread outward into tissue, with energy generally decreasing with depth. This makes them useful for treating broader, relatively superficial musculoskeletal areas.
Focus Shockwave
Broadly Distributed Energy Radial pressure waves originate at the applicator and spread outward into tissue, with energy generally decreasing with depth. This makes them useful for treating broader, relatively superficial musculoskeletal areas.
