Overview
The Chattanooga Intelect Mobile 2 STIM is a professional electrotherapy stimulator designed for physical therapy and rehabilitation. It provides two independent stimulation channels, allowing separate parameter control for each channel.
Developed by Chattanooga, a manufacturer of physical therapy and rehabilitation equipment, the system supports a wide range of current forms used in electrotherapy, including TENS, VMS, IFC, HVPC, Russian stimulation, Microcurrent, and Galvanic. The interface assists clinicians in selecting appropriate settings and treatment programs, with adjustable intensity according to the chosen protocol and treatment plan.
Key features
- Two independent stimulation channels with separate control.
- Multiple waveform options: TENS, VMS, IFC, HVPC, Russian stimulation, Microcurrent, Galvanic (and other modes available within the device’s settings).
- Access to treatment protocols and programs to support clinical decision-making by target area and session goal.
- Designed for professional use in clinics and rehabilitation centers.
- Adjustable stimulation intensity per program and per channel.
