I am looking for information about MCS, specifically parameters, frequency of visits, etc.
Thanks for your help.

30 and .3 hurtz 30 first for pain followed by .3 for tissue healing.
If using pads do for min 5 min as the current density is greatly reduced. Probes are the best.
Milliamps are just bellow sensory perception.
Have the patient hydrate before and after.
Three to four visits should kick start the process.
If using on a decub ulcer do for five -7 days straight.
Just as an aside..I rarely use it anymore as I bought a cold Laser unit.
