Pointoselect Digital Support

Q: Does the PointoSelect Digital detect and treat body points?
A: Yes, you can place it in modes for body points and for ear points. The Pointoselect Digital also comes with a special probe end cap used in detecting body points.

Q: Should I treat both ears?
A: You can treat one or both ears in the same treatment. The preference is usually to start with the ear on the same side of the body as the symptom, if applicable.

Q: Is there a timer for the treatment? How long do I treat?
A: You control the length of the treatment by holding the “T” button on the probe to treat. When you release the button, the Pointoselect Digital reverts to measurement/locate mode. A treatment duration of 15-30 seconds per point is usually effective.

Q: How often do I treat?
A: The Pointoselect Digital is safe to use every day, if needed. Many conditions may not need such frequent treatment.

Q: After I treat with the PointoSelect, will the point still show active if I search for it?
A: Yes. The treatment actually “charges up” the point in the skin so it will still show active after treatment. It may even show more active (less resistance) after treatment.

Q: What gives better results? Needles? Laser? Or Electric stim?
A: All three approaches give good results. Treat according to your preference and patient comfort.

Q: What’s the difference between the blue PointoSelect and the white PointoSelect?
A: Great question! We made a video about White vs. Blue. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=8IGzrA7J1yY

Q: There are two caps that came on the probe, a black cap and then another clear plastic tube. Do I remove both?
A: No, just remove the black cap for treatment. It is designed to protect your probe tip when not in use. DO NOT remove the clear/white plastic tube from the probe. It is integral to proper probe function.

Q: I’m trying to scan the ear and I don’t hear anything/nothing is happening. What am I doing wrong?
A: Here are a few important tips:

Make sure you are in detection/measurement mode.
The patient must hold the hand bar to complete the circuit.
Scan slowly and carefully. Ear points are tiny.
Make sure the volume is turned up on your Pointoselect Digital.

For more information about each of these items, please see the user manual or training videos.

Q: Do I or the patient need to hold the hand bar for it to detect points?
A: The patient must hold the bar. If you are treating yourself, then you need to hold the bar.
