This is an overview of how to use the DOVE, intended to give you
an idea of how simple it is to use the device, and to serve as
a reminder in basic operation for renters and owners of this marvelous
health tool.
The DOVE comes with an owner’s manual and training materials
to learn more about advanced techniques, but here is all you need
to know for basic operation of the device. Following these guidelines,
you will take the body through an entire treatment, and you will
be on your way to receiving healing benefits.
- Before turning on the DOVE, do a quick evaluation of your body.
What area bothers you the most? What do you feel needs treatment?
You will work according to what you perceive as priorities.
- Turn the device on and place it on the skin. Set a comfortable
signal level (the red + and - signs control
strength of signal).
- Move the DOVE to the area of main complaint (the area you want
to treat). Be sure the electrodes (the metal on the underside of
the DOVE) make good contact with the skin (although a light touch
is all that is needed). Slowly move the DOVE along the skin in
rhythmic motions, applying slight pressure. Cover the entire area
of the main complaint.
- As you move the device, you will look for points where the device
or the skin acts differently. It may either want to stick to the
skin at that place or it will flash its lights and beep rapidly
as it receives signals to which it is responding or you will simply
feel that it is hitting something there.
- When you find the point where you have the strongest of these
signs, hold the DOVE still on that point. As the DOVE treats that
area, the lights will eventually stop flashing, as will the beeping.
When the device emits a series of rapid, rhythmic beeps, and the
lights come on, one by one, and stay on, you will know the treatment
for that area is finished.
That is it! The DOVE monitors how much treatment a certain area
can take, and it will signal in the manner described when it has
done as much as it can or should do at that time.
You can do multiple points and areas of the body in a treatment
session but, when first starting to use the device, keep your treatment
to about 40 minutes or less so as to not overwork or stress the
body.
The body will now adjust to the treatment given by the DOVE, and
will continue the healing process.
