For the heating purposes go with the continuous mode 100% duty if it is possible with the 2.0w/cm^2 intensity.

START 18/13.15 cm Jul 24th 18 (7.09/5.18") NOW 22.5/15.2 cm Fer 12th 20 (8.86/5.98") GOAL 8.5"/ 6"

When connective tissue is stretched within therapeutic temperatures ranging 102 to 110 F (38.9- 43.3 C), the amount of structural weakening produced by a given amount of tissue elongation varies inversely with the temperature. This is apparently related to the progressive increase in the viscous flow properties of the collagenous tissue when it is heated. (Warren et al (1971,1976)

Yep, it should either show continuous (vs the ‘pulse’ option) but you may want to set the intensity at 1.5 or 1.6 to start.
Feel the face of the probe/transducer and you will feel it vibrate.
Apply gel… and you will reapply 5-10 minutes into your routine.
You aren’t really trying to apply pressure, it should be a smooth glide keeping continuous motion.
As you make your paths you want to be slightly overlapping the patterns.

Good luck and ask questions!
