Important Contraindications - When NOT to Use BioWaveGO
Do NOT use BioWaveGO if you have an implanted cardiac pacemaker.
Do NOT use BioWaveGO if you have epilepsy or are prone to seizures.
Do NOT place electrodes over the heart, or across the thoracic volume. Electrodes can be applied to the back of the thorax and lateral aspect of the upper limb (i.e. below/down the shoulder).
Do NOT place electrodes on the front or side of the neck.
Do NOT place electrodes on top of the head.
Do NOT place electrodes over open wounds, broken skin, rashy skin or sensitive areas.
NOTE: Electrodes MAY BE PLACED directly over or in the proximity of implanted metal hardware including total joint replacements, rods, plates, screws, anchors and pins. See User’s Manual for more information.
ELECTRODES (PADS) MUST NEVER TOUCH EACH OTHER DURING THE TREATMENT
- 1.0 inch (2.6 cm) is the minimum spacing between Pads.
- There is NO maximum spacing between any Pads.
- If the edges of the Pads touch during the treatment, it may cause a burn.
- Pads typically can be reused about 8-10 times.
Warning: Electrodes must never touch each other
Minimum Spacing Between Electrodes = 1 inch
No Maximum Spacing Between Electrodes
Do NOT use electrodes if:
• The metal portion of the wire is exposed; or
• The gel has peeled apart from the black carbon surface
BioWaveGO Pro Tips
Body position during treatment
Position of the body during treatment is important. Generally, the tissue being treated should be a little taut or in a stretch position. Generally, sitting in a supported position in a chair, couch, or bed is best for most treatment locations on the body. See User’s Manual for more detailed information on optimal Body Position for different treatment locations.
Motion during treatment
The sensation from the treatment is a deep smooth tingling and pressure sensation as the muscle is held in tension in the volume of tissue being treated. Motion may cause a stonger or weaker sensation and will cause the location of the internal electrical field to shift slightly. Shifting of the electrical field is most prevalent when treating the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, fingers, and feet.
The goal is to gently move the joint at the location to shift the sensation caused by the electrical field so that it focuses directly onto and encompasses the primary location of pain. This is a fine tuning of the treatment that will provide the best treatment results.
Electrode Placement Rationale
BioWaveGO electrode placements are different from conventional electrical stimulation. The mixing of the patented therapeutic signals occurs in a 3.5-inch hemishpere, not along the surface of the skin between the electrodes. As a result, electrodes need to be placed directly over locations of pain, or one electrode over a single location of pain and a second over a comfortable location to recieve stimulation – typically over a bony prominence near the treatment site.

BioWave FAQ
What Is BioWave Smarter Pain Blocking Technology?
What is it?
BioWave is a patented smarter pain blocking technology that delivers therapeutic electrical signals through skin into deep tissue to pain nerves blocking the pain signal to the brain. BioWave works like Novocain, except BioWave is blocking the pain signal electrically instead of chemically. Because the pain signal is blocked at the nerve inside the body, a 30-minute treatment can provide long lasting pain relief. There is a cumulative benefit with multiple treatments. If your method of pain relief is not helping you, you have nothing to lose by trying BioWave. BioWaveGO Rx and BioWaveHOME are both available by prescription. BioWaveGO is also available over the counter direct from our website www.biowave.com/GO or at Amazon.com. Both are used to treat any type of chronic or acute pain and come with a 30-day money back guarantee. You can contact us here and one of our customer service specialists can answer any other questions you may have. You can also reach out to us at support@biowave.com or at 1-877-BIOWAVE (1-877-246-9283).
Does BioWaveGO Come With A Warranty?
BioWave is proud to offer a 1 year warranty on all products. If your device should fail for any reason, we will replace it free of charge, no hassle and no waiting for a repair. For warranty questions or to place a warranty request, please call BioWave Customer service at 877-246-9283 X 1. Thank you for trusting BioWave.
Is BioWave Different Than TENS?
Yes, BioWave is superior to TENS because BioWave blocks the pain signal at pain nerves in deep tissue. TENS just acts as a distraction at the surface of the skin.
Is BioWave a TENS unit?
BioWave is not TENS. TENS low-frequency signals cannot pass through skin because of the skin’s impedance. As a result, TENS creates a sensation at the surface of skin which MAY act as a distraction to the patient’s pain. When the TENS signal is removed, there is little residual benefit to the patient.

Is BioWave a TENS unit? (FOR PATIENTS)
If TENS units are not helping you, you have nothing to lose by trying BioWave. You can contact us at support@biowave.com or at 1-877-BIOWAVE (1-877-246-9283). BioWave is proud to work with premier healthcare organizations who are leading the way with new non-opioid pain therapies for all different types of pain conditions. Thank you for your interest.
What Is The Difference Between PEMF, TENS, NMES and ESTIM?
PEMF (Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field) therapy utilizes magnetic fields to generate electromagnetic pulses intended to stimulate cellular activity.
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) sends electrical impulses through the skin to interfere with the transmission of pain signals, primarily affecting surface nerves only.
NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) applies electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions, sometimes used in muscle rehabilitation.
ESTIM (Electrical Stimulation) is a broader category that includes various types of treatments using electrical signals.
