Add 25 gallons of distilled water (your local bottled water supplier can deliver 5 gallon bottles of distilled water). INITIAL START-UP: Connect power then press START to initialize (INL). During initialization, any buttons you press, except stop will have no effect on the machine. The initialization will take about 90 seconds. The unit should make a full cycle from foot to head back to foot. Once the unit has initialized and stopped, the display will ready RDY. OPERATION: When you press the Start Button, the HHC (Hand Held Control) will read 15 minutes in the display. By pressing Start again, the machine will begin treatment. The Hydromassage is preset to start each session on a low pressure, slow speed to provide a full body massage for 25 minutes. If you desire less time, press the Time Button repeatedly before pressing the Start Button until the desired time is displayed. Each time you press the Time Button the time of the session will be reduced by one minute. If you wish less than 20 minutes, press the Start Button then the Time Button continuously until the desired time is displayed, then press Start. PRESSURE CONTROL: The pressure can be set before or during a session. Each time the Up or Down arrow is pressed, the pressure will either decrease or increase. There are three speeds; they can also be set before or during a session. AREA MASSAGE:: The area massage will run between the two lights above the outstretched body on the HHC. If a full body massage is desire, then leave the lights where they are. You may set an area massage after a session has started by simply pressing the Low Area button when the jet reaches the lowest area you wish massaged and by pressing the High Area button when the jets reach the highest area you wish to massage.

ADJUSTING THE MASSAGE AREA: To make minor adjustments to the selected area massage, you can use the buttons marked Therapy Up or Down. After setting an area, you may press either the area massage up or area massage down button to keep the same distance bewteenn set points to move the area receiving the massage towards the head or foot. Each time an up or down button is pushed, the massage area is adjusted by 2 1/2". ( NOTE very other time an up or down button is pushed the light will not move. A double light also indicates a change in the massage area). RESET BUTTON: At any time, you can press the yellow reset button to resume a full body massage or to set a different area massage, by repeating the same process. To end a session before time runs out, press the yellow reset button twice. The machine will reset all functions including the time and return the massage manifold to the foot position and stop the unit. TEMPERATURE BUTTON: Pressing the Temp Button will tell you the water temperature. To change temperature press the Temp Button and the Time Button at the same time, The current temperature is shown and can be changed. Press the up & down pressure buttons to increase or decrease the pre-set temp. Each time you adjust it, the temperature setting will change one (1 ) degree. The temperature will not change immediately. Allow approximately two (2) minutes for each degree of change. Celsius Readings: By pressing the low area limit and temp buttons at the same time, the temperature will then read Celsius. By pressing high area and temp the unit will read in Fahrenheit

IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS If your system does not function properly, Re-initialize the system by unplugging the machine for 15 seconds and plugging it back in. Then press start to begin the initialization sequence. OVERHEATING: If the machine reaches 110 F, it will not run, (see pg. 13) CD03 will appear on the Hand Held Control. Inspect the power to the chiller (pg.18 photo #2) to see if it is running, if not, check fuses (pg. 10) LOW WATER LEVEL: When the HHC reads CD01 (low water) the machine will not start. If you experience the pressure going up and down, (pump cavitation) you are low on water, or there may be foam in your machine, add a tablespoon of defoamer to 1 gallon of distilled water to eliminate the foam.

NOTE: Run unit through at least one complete 15-minute session each day to insure that the water treatment system runs to its maximum efficiency!

CPT Coding Guidelines for Dry HydrotherapyRevised 1/2/02

 AquaMED beds and chairs are listed as Class I physical medicine devices under the FDA 510 (k) program. At present, there is no specific CPT Code for Dry Hydrotherapy that encompasses all the aspects of treatment. In March 2000 the Multidisciplinary Academy of Affiliated Medical Arts (MAAMA) asked the AMA to provide guidance as to how to code Dry Hydrotherapy since there are several treatments taking place simultaneously. The following is a portion of the response to us, from Dr. R L Ramsdell, that can be found at www.maama.org/new_page_5.htm.  “… we enclosed your informational materials and our explanation of the combined methods of action produced by your equipment. We additionally cited its ability to perform simultaneous procedures as currently identified with individual CPT™ codes such as heat and massage that coincidentally mimic whirlpool and, with the larger units generate sufficient pressure on the spinal column to produce intersegmental traction like separation. Their response was as follows: "From a CPT coding perspective, the product insert included in your request regarding use of the AquaMed™ and AquaMed II™ devices indicates that both devices incorporate the use of warm, water-filled surface that acts to massage the affected area, simulating the effects of a number of modalities. However, only one procedure is performed. Therefore, since there are no codes in CPT that specify the services provided by the use of the devices indicated and since both of these procedures are identified as a physical therapy modality, THE MOST APPROPRIATE CODE TO USE FOR THESE SERVICES WOULD BE CODE 97039 (a report should be included with the use of this code to identify the specifics involved in performing the service). “In reviewing this decision, we feel 97039 (unlisted modality, specify type and time if constant attendance) would be the most appropriate provided the procedure is administered under direct (one on one) patient contact by the provider or "incident to" provided the supervision requirements are met for that application scenario.”  Dr. R.L. Ramsdell  It should be noted that the AMA recently changed some coding guidelines. One change, is a direction that states, “Do not select a CPT code that merely approximates the service provided. If no such procedure or service exists, then report the service using the appropriate unlisted procedure or service code.” According to Dr. Ramsdell, this should not affect those who are billing Dry Hydrotherapy solely for the effects attributable to massage. In his opinion, it would also be appropriate to code Dry Hydrotherapy treatments as massage (97124) since the equipment creates “effleurage, petrissage and/or tapotement (stroking, compression, percussion)”. He also considers Dry Hydrotherapy treatments to be a “Supervised Modality” which does not require direct patient contact. (A modality is “any physical agent applied to produce therapeutic changes to biologic tissue; included but not limited to thermal, acoustic, light, mechanical, or electric energy.”)* Since codes and reimbursement policies change, and can vary by region as well as insurance carrier, JTL can make no guarantee that Dry Hydrotherapy treatments will be reimbursed. We recommend that you contact local authorities, regulators and insurance carriers for their suggestions as to how to best code for reimbursement.

Circulatory System

Through its mechanical action on the soft tissues, produces a reflex vasodilatation of the blood vessels, thus increasing local circulation. From this primary effect, the following changes are also produced. Reduces schema (lack of blood), therefore reduces pain due to chemical irritation of free nerve endings. Speeds elimination of metabolites (waste products of metabolism) from local tissues, thereby relieving tissue congestion Helps to reduce edema (swelling) in local tissues and extremities. Promotes dispersal of metabolic waste products. It may be used to reduce edema, preventing fibrosis and possible subsequent adhesion formation. Increases the number of red blood cells in circulation. Increases general nutrition of the tissues. Brings about an increased exchange of fluids and materials between the blood stream and the tissue's cells enhancing cell metabolism and removal of wastes. Increases peripheral circulation from its local mechanical effect. The initial circulatory stimulation causes a slight increase in blood pressure followed by an overall lowering of blood pressure. Helps to facilitate tissue healing through its enhancement of circulation. Reduces pulse rate. Increase the systolic stroke volume. Can break the cycle of spasm and pain, decreasing both. Enhances vasodilatation. Nervous System Sedative or stimulating effect on the nervous system depending on the type and length of treatment given. Reduces sympathetic stimulation and helps to balance the autonomic nervous system. Relaxes the muscles and helps to reestablish proper tonus through its effect on the neuromuscular reflex pathways. Affects the neurotransmitters of the brain and increases endorphin secretion in particular. Can reduce nerve entrapment through the release of soft tissue or muscle binding. Lymphatic System Increases tissue fluid and lymphatic circulation thus reducing edema and enhancing the immune and filtering activities of this system. Increases venous and lymphatic flow. Reducing swelling by enhancing lymphatic flow.

Skin

Helps to reduce tension in the skin and adjoining tissues as well as increase its circulation.

Musculoskeletal Systems

Increases blood supply and nutrition to muscles .Speeds the elimination of metabolic wastes including lactic acid. Thus, it helps muscles recover more quickly from exertion and fatigue. Relaxes muscles, reducing spasm, tension, and cramping Improves muscle tone and helps prevent, or delay, muscular atrophy resulting from inactivity. Reduces adhesions and fibrosis thus freeing muscle fibers and fascia (connective tissue) from restrictive binding. Can stretch the connective tissue, rearrange its shape, and reduce myofascial strain and chronic shortening. Improves circulation and nutrition of the joints, increasing joint range of motion. Helps to reestablish proper tone in the muscles through its effect on the proprioceptive reflexes. Reduces muscle and soft tissue pain and can reduce and eliminate "trigger points". Reduces joint strain and compression through releasing tight muscles and tendons. Increases case and efficiency of movement. Supports increased work-capacity and metabolism Can stimulate muscle contraction.

Excretory System Increases the excretion (via the kidneys) of fluids and waste products. Can facilitate elimination through the large intestine by mechanically stimulating peristalsis and improving tone. Respiratory System Deepens and normalizes the breathing pattern through relaxation and release of tension in the breathing structures, both the rib cage and muscles of respiration.

Biophysical Effects Increases oxygen intake of tissues Increases metabolism .

Neuromuscular Effects Analgesic Elevates pain threshold. Assists in resolution of muscle guarding. Alters nerve conduction velocity. In combination with exercise, enhances elasticity of connective tissues.
