How Revitive Arthritis-Knee Works

With its unique TripleAction Revitive Arthritis-Knee works in three ways:

1. Delivers Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to your feet via a pair of cushioned foot-pads,while you are seated. The EMS causes muscles in your calf and foot to contract, which helps to increase circulation in your legs.

Revitive has been developed so that it is comfortable for you to use. It features a patented IsoRocker ® that allows for natural ankle movement when applying the EMS to your feet. Ankle movement is a key factor in increasing circulation in the lower legs. You can choose to enable or disable the IsoRocker ® at any time.

Revitive is designed to be easy to use and comes with a remote control, which means you do not have to reach down to adjust settings during use.

2. Delivers Electrical Muscle Stimulation to the front of the thighs/quadriceps through the use of the Arthritis (Electrode) Pads- to strengthen the quadriceps. Strengthening your quadriceps muscles may help to:

•Support and stabilise the knee

•Reduce stress on the knee

•Relieve knee pain

To get the most out of Revitive, it is recommended that you use:

•Revitive foot-pads for at least 30-60 minutes each day.

•Revitive Arthritis Pads on the thigh of your affected leg (knee) once a day for 20 minutes, 5 days per week.

3. Delivers Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) through the smaller Body (Electrode) Pads - to provide immediate, temporary relief of pain for your legs and other areas of your body. Use as and when you need relief.Visit www.Re
