Why can't you just place a patch anywhere comfortable?

Placement matters because LifeWave designs each patch around stimulation of specific points on the skin and publishes different locations for different products.

A comfortable random spot is not automatically equivalent to a location shown in the official diagram.

How does placement vary between products?

Use the current diagram, distinguish paired patches from single patches and rotate only among approved options.

Products have different points
Some patches work as a pair
Some schedules vary by week
Approved rotation supports consistency

Can I place a LifeWave patch wherever feels convenient?

No — LifeWave publishes specific locations for each product, and a comfortable spot isn't automatically one of the approved points.

Do all LifeWave patches use the same placement?

No — some are worn as a single patch, some as a pair, and schedules and points vary by product, so always check the specific guide for what you're using.

Where do I find the official placement diagram?

On our complete placement guide, or LifeWave's own product instructions for your specific patch.
