Wrist electrode placement; finding a pulse

[Guest guest]

The original Beck papers suggest you find your pulse and mark those

points. I can't for the life of me find mine, except for the thumb

side on the left hand. I have been placing the electrodes per

Jaguar's diagrams, which I confirmed by looking at others.

So, how much current would get through into that general area, and if

one does not feel a pulse under the electrodes, did any current get

there at all? Wish I had considered this a month and a half ago!

Best regards,

You can solve this easily.

Buy a cheap (15 BUCKS OR SO) digital milliamp meter at a good

hardware store. Cut one lead and attach the probes to each cut

end. Turn meter on and set to " mA " (usually they have a setting

like : AC 2mA, 2000uA, etc) any of these lower values will do.

As you are using it, do the best you can to find arteries. The ones

shown in anatomy charts are usually about close enough, you don't

really need to feel them.

As you use the device, use a higher frequency. this will be AC

current, so the meter needs to measure small AC currents to work.

Ask the clerk at the store (yea,right) anyway on second thought this

will be moderately easy, not very easy. But,..this is why the

godzilla devices have meters in them.
