double eye electrode (opaline glass)

Opaline glass double eye Violetwand attachment - to treating a greater surface simultaneously - originally used in Violet Ray high frequency treatment.

When switched on the electrode will buzz and as this is placed near your skin surface you will feel a sensation which can vary from mild to intense and prickly as electrotherapy energy is discharged. Throughout the last century, energy was believed to stimulate vitality, enhancing a sense of wellbeing. The sensation you feel depends on how electrotherapy treatment is applied and how the glass electrode is shaped. This double eye electrode looks quite psychedelic and was intended to be applied in direct contact with the skin - prior to energy being applied, to avoid painful sparks.  Used with soothing effect and intended to be used on a low setting.

This violet wand electrode fits 11mm UK standard European violetwand device

Electro medical devices known as a violet wand or violet ray produce high frequency energy and ozone and can be found with a wide array of attachments designed for use shaped for specific parts of the body to treat different ailments without side effects.

Originally used in Violet Ray high frequency treatment, this rare double eye electrode was intended for external on a low setting in direct contact.

Handbooks suggest the application of treatment for no more than a couple of minutes in direct contact on a low setting to deliver short intense high frequency therapy to the affected area - the light, heat, energy and ozone work together to stimulate and soothe.

Some holistic treatments from original vintage handbooks suggest treatments like included ailments like eczema, hordeolum stye swellings and psoriasis - the light, heat, energy and ozone combining together to stimulate with soothing effect.

When used externally if treatment applied in direct contact will feel mild - when moved away from the surface will cause a sparking sensation which does feel more intense - we would advise to always exercise caution and seek medical advice - and feel these electrodes lend themselves to being a movie prop thanks to their ethereal glow and aesthetic appeal.

Remember, with electrodes, the larger the physical glass surface area that comes in contact with the skin the milder the electrode will feel, whereas the smaller the area, particularly with electrodes that are small or pointed will feel more intense and having a metal plate, filament or wire in them will increases the intensivity and sensation, right the way through to the fulguration electrode with a wire tip at the end which are intended to cauterize and burn tissue.

This electrode will feel mild to moderate.
