The intention of Revitive Arthritis-knee pads is to strengthen the muscles and as a result this could support the knee and relieve the issues associated with Osteoarthritis in the knee. If you do have the Osteoarthritis-Knee model it is important to note that the Arthritis mode is slightly different to the waveforms you feel via the foot pads. In Arthritis-mode there will be 10 seconds of stimulation, followed by a 50-second rest period, when no stimulation is felt. If the sensation feels strong then you will be working the muscles. If the sensation is quite weak – you may need to increase a little. What is the Revitive Arthritis-knee pads best price at Argos, Boots pr eBay?
