“A phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor and is cyclically regenerated or reborn.”
Finally, affordable, updated and FDA certified waveform for pain relief, injury rehabilitation, and neuromuscular retraining.
Therapy methods for chronic and complex pain syndromes, sports injuries, and enhanced athletic performance.

Here is a price and specifications comparison to some of the more popular muscle stimulation modalities out there.
Some of the EMS companies say no training or support is needed and that anyone can just use their unit. We believe the opposite. Knowing exactly how to you the EMS, where you place the electrode pads and then the protocols on what to do while the pads are on you are extremely important.
This is why we provide one-on-one training, support, and guidance on how to use your Phoenix.
Our Technology, unique waveforms, protocols, and training methods are designed to help people of all ages and abilities RISE UP, achieve amazing results, and become the person or athlete they have always wanted to be.
The Phoenix’s waveform is engineered to act with the body rather than against it, allowing effective power and deep penetration with minimal resistance from the body and less surface discomfort.
Top Frequently Asked Questions about ARPwave and the Theratim:
Due to the unique waveform of the Phoenix Wave, you really can only compare the Phoenix Waveform to the ARPwave and Therastim and not to companies like Marc Pro or Compex.
When comparing the Phoenix Waveform to the ARPwave and Therastim (The original ARPwave) the key factors are:
The Phoenix Waveform is a Square Wave and the ARPwave and Therastim are Sinusoidal Waves.
A square wave like that of the Phoenix Waveforms covers a much larger area than a sinusoidal wave like ARP.
A Sinusoidal wave is very crude, therefore to obtain some result they have to crank it up to a point where you feel a lot of pins and needles. Our waveform is cleaner and more efficient because it is generated with square wavefronts.
Phoenix Elite and Professional
Waveform: Square wave with the carrier at 10 kHz, and zero net charge but tweaked to have a DC-like component; it is coupled with a low-frequency waveform at 500 Hz and 500 µs of pulse width positive and 500 µs negative and options at 300µs pulse width positive and 300 µs negative. Electron flow is reversible. The output is a constant current going up to 120 mA on channels 1 and 3.
ARP Wave RX 100
Waveform: Asymmetrical Wave

Specifications (From: https://www.compexusa.com/media/Compex-Wireless-USA-User-Manual.pdf)
OUTPUT WAVEFORM Biphasic rectangular impulse with electrical mean equal zero (net zero DC). All electrical specifications are given for an impedance of 500-1000 ohms per channel. Channels: Four independent and individually adjustable channels that are electrically isolated from each other and earthed.
All the electrical specifications are supplied for an impedance from 500 to 1000 ohms per channel. Outputs: four independent and individually adjustable channels, electrically insulated from one another.
Impulsion form: constant rectangular current with compensated impulses to eliminate any direct element of continuous current to avoid any residual polarization from the skin.
Maximum impulse intensity: 120 mA.
Impulse intensity increments: manual adjustment of stimulation intensity from 0 to 999 (energy) by minimum increments of 0.25 mA.
Duration of impulses: from 300 to 400 μs.
The maximum quantity of electricity per impulse: 96 micro coulombs (2 x 48 μC, compensated). Typical impulse rise time: 3 μs (20%-80% of maximum current).
