Precision in Therapy: Customising Electrode Strength for Every User

Precision in Therapy: Customising Electrode Strength for Every User

During early testing, we found that a fixed intensity level wasn’t effective for all users. Some areas of the residual limb were more sensitive than others, while some required stronger stimulation to be perceived at all. A uniform approach simply didn’t provide the level of precision needed for effective sensory discrimination training. Additionally, we discovered that even the same user’s sensitivity can fluctuate from day to day, making real-time adjustments essential.

The Solution: Individual Electrode Control

By allowing users to adjust the intensity of each electrode, we’ve created a system that tailors therapy to each individual’s nerve sensitivity. This means:

-       Areas that are more sensitive can have a lower intensity setting to remain comfortable.

-       Areas that need stronger stimulation can be adjusted accordingly to ensure proper engagement.

-       Users can modify settings daily to accommodate natural fluctuations in sensitivity.

-       Over time, users can fine-tune their settings as their sensory response improves.

To make customisation easy, SensTrain Neuro-PL's software provides an intuitive interface, letting users adjust each electrode’s strength with a simple touch. This ensures that the therapy remains both comfortable and effective while delivering the precise stimulation required for optimal neuroplasticity and pain reduction.

By developing this level of control, we’ve made SensTrain Neuro-PL more than just a device—it’s a dynamic training tool that evolves with the user, ensuring continuous progress in sensory training and phantom limb pain relief.
