How to prepare skin for ValuTrode X Electrode placement?

• Before electrodes are placed you need to inspect the skin thoroughly to be certain that there are no small abrasions or openings
• These openings would serve as a pathway of current and will become very uncomfortable for your subject
• If the skin is very hairy it may need to be shaved, but this should the day before the first stimulation session as shaving will cause points of irritation and this will cause the patient to be uncomfortable during the first stimulation session
• An alternative to shaving the day before would be to use scissors to clip the hair as close to the skin as possible, being careful not to abrade the skin
• Preparing the skin is a very important first step in preparation for electrical stimulation. Thoroughly clean the skin of any lotion, oils, makeup, and dead skin.
