The Ultima IF4160 - Version 2
IF4160 is a superb professional quality Interferential carefully designed for home use.

It can be used to treat any condition that would normally respond to standard TeNS. However it's therapeutic effects of increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation / swelling around the treatment area make it particularly effective for a much wider range of conditions.

Whilst it delivers many times the power of a standard TeNS the sensation of IF4160 is extremely gentle.

The well written user manual includes specific instructions addressing:

* Ankylosing Spondylitis
* Rheumatic Arthritis, Osteo Arthritis, Spondylitis
* Recent Injury (including Sports Injury)
* Post Operative Pain, Edema
* Tennis and Golf Elbow
* Post Op (Ankle) Surgery
* Plantar Facilitis

This is not an exhaustive list. IF4160 can be used to address any localised (even chronic) pain.

Alternative operating modes are explained in full and photographs show typical electrode placement for the most commonly treated areas of the body.

IF4160 can now be run from a mains supply (110 - 240 volt) or from 4 x AA batteries (rechargeable or standard alkaline) and it now has a memory to store & recall your favourite programme setting.

It can be operated in either 4 pole (4 pad) or 2 pole (2 pad) treatment modes:

In 4 pole mode, two sine waves are simultaneously delivered via two separate pairs of electrodes to interact externally. In 2 pole mode two sine waves are superimposed inside the device to form a new amplitude - modulated waveform.

Sounds complicated? Not at all. Just use it as you would an ordinary TeNS machine!

Ultima IF has 6 adjustable programmes, variable output in 15 steps plus timer function.

- Selectable (Beat) frequencies 2 - 160Hz (full TeNS range)
- Clear LED display
- Treatment Timer (normal treatment 20 - 30 mins)
- Usage Timer (recall from memory)

Now you can save / recall your favourite programme setting.

What is Interferential Therapy?
"Interferential" can be likened to being a sophisticated form of TeNS, capable of deep penetration with the added bonus of having healing properties. It is a standard form of treatment used by Physiotherapists.

Normal TeNS operates at frequencies up to around 150Hz. Its electrical current runs just below skin level and the power that can be delivered is limited by the users ability to accept the strong tingling sensation it generates.

Interferential operates at very high frequencies (around 4000 Hz). At these frequencies your skin's resistance is significantly lower. This allows the current to penetrate deep into the tissue. The sensation, however, remains at a very low and comfortable level. As a result Interferential can deliver many times the "power" of a TeNS well below skin level.

Pain control with Interferential is significantly higher than with TeNS and it has the important advantages of having long term benefits by reducing swelling, reducing scar tissue, increasing blood flow and promoting the natural healing process. TeNS cannot claim these benefits.


There are two methods of application:

In FOUR POLE mode Interferential uses two pairs of electrodes. Each pair applies a high frequency signal simultaneously. These signals electronically oppose each other and they are set to have a small and very precisely controlled frequency difference between them. Deep in the tissue they meet and "interfere" with each other. Effectively, where they meet, they cancel each other out but leave a "beat" frequency equal to the controlled difference between them. This "beat" frequency can be varied and is usually set to equal a normal TeNS frequency of 2 to 150Hz.

TWO POLE Interferential is easier to explain. This mode uses just one pair of electrodes. The signal still runs at around 4000Hz but the TeNS effect is achieved by superimposing a modulation on top of the base frequency.

Whichever method is employed the result is the same: Interferential produces a very high performance TeNS action deep into the tissue but with a low and comfortable sensation to the patient.

A fully functional Interferential such as Ultima 4160 would provide a choice of two or four pole treatment and have a facility to enable the user to set the "beat" frequency according to the condition being treated.

Interferential is safe and unlike most drugs has no known side effects.

Common uses include: Pain Relief (including all TeNS applications), pre / post surgery, bone fractures, sports injuries, carpal tunnel, circulatory disorders, joint injury, cumulative trauma disorders ... and much more.

We have also found it to be extremely effective in treating migraines and tension headache.

Individuals with a cardiac pacemaker or who are pregnant should not use Interferential without first consulting their clinician / doctor.
