INNOVO should not be used if the patient:

- Has a cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator or any implanted electronic device
- Is pregnant
- Has a suspected or diagnosed heart condition, without consulting a clinician first
- Has any implanted metal devices in the abdominal or pelvic areas including an Intrauterine Device (IUD)
- Has epilepsy or is under medical supervision for cognitive dysfunction
- Is wearing the product necessitates placement over areas at which drugs/medicines are administered by injection
- Do not use in close proximity (e.g. 3ft) to shortwave or microwave therapy equipment, as this may produce instability in the controller’s output

You should wait before using INNOVO until:

- At least six months after child birth or until lactation has ceased
- The heavy days of period have finished

With INNOVO, you control the intensity of the muscle stimulation. The stimulation should be strong enough to give you a good pelvic floor contraction but should never be uncomfortable or painful. If you experience discomfort during your session, reduce the intensity to a more comfortable level.

As with any treatment program, it will take time to experience results with INNOVO. We recommend that you continue to use INNOVO for at least three months, 5 times a week for 30 minutes each session to get the best possible results.

Uncomfortable stimulation may also occur if you have not applied enough INNOVO Spray. Make sure to spray each of the eight panels 3-4 before each use.

There are 2 INNOVO programmes:

Programme 1: Stress Incontinence Programme: As you increase the intensity on the controller you will start to feel your pelvic floor contracting. With an effective pelvic floor contraction, you will feel a sensation of “squeezing”, “tightening” and or “lifting up” between your legs. You should feel little or no activity on the front and sides of the legs. As you become familiar with the sensation you should increase the intensity level over time to reach the optimum level of for your sizing. There shouldn’t be any activity on the front or sides of the legs.

Programme 2: Urge Incontinence Programme: At first you will begin to feel a slight tapping sensation under the 2 electrodes positioned on your buttocks. Continue to increase the intensity until you feel a strong tapping, but only to a level you find comfortable.

Here's how some INNOVO customers explain the sensation:

“It feels quite pleasant. I stand and watch television, and find it quite relaxing. The time passes quickly.” – INNOVO user

“Kind of relaxing. Time for me and doing me good. Feels like I'm exercising - with no effort!” – INNOVO user

“A tingling and pulsing sensation as the light electric impulses cause your muscle group to tense and relax.” – INNOVO user
