Made in Japan
The Piezo Stimulator is an unique point electro-stimulation device without battery or external power source.
 
The high voltage microcurrents are generated by inbuild solid state ceramic quartz crystal. The peak voltage generated is up to 10,000 volts. When the trigger button located at the end of the unit is pushed, an electrical spike of 12 msec is released. The Piezo unit is not serviceable and will last up to 10,000 simulations.
 
Two models, the DX and EX, are available. In addition there are accessories for the DX model.
 
The Piezo stimulator is ideal for needleless acupoint and trigger point therapy in children, needle-phobic patients or when Piezo therapy is indicated.
