Description
The Therasim LP-NTS-03 is a device for locating and stimulating active points, made in the microproduction workshop of the ICE research institute in Bucharest, where it was designed [1].
Together with the Ministry of Health, ICE drew up a national medical equipment programme; the prototypes of its medical electronics laboratory went into production at IEIA Cluj-Napoca (19 types), IEMI (3), IEI (2) and in ICE’s microproduction workshop (19) [1]. As demand grew, production of some of them was taken over by IEI [1].
IEI also made it [3]. Its prospectus names it THERASTIM LP-NST-03 and presents it as an electronic alternative to acupuncture or massage, for hospitals and home use: the stimulating electrode also detects the points, with optical and acoustic signalling, and it has four stimulation modes and two galvanically separated channels [2].
