APS-e4: the invasive electrotherapy device that marks a before and after in clinical practice
Invasive electrotherapy has become established in recent years as one of the most effective tools within advanced physiotherapy and musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Thanks to the controlled application of electrical currents, it is possible to address complex pathologies with greater precision, accelerate tissue regeneration processes, and significantly improve the patient’s clinical outcome.
In this context, the APS-e4 was born—an equipment developed by Agupunt that responds to a very specific professional need: having a portable, versatile, and clinically powerful device capable of integrating different invasive electrotherapy techniques into a single unit.
If you are considering incorporating an invasive physiotherapy system or renewing the one you currently use, here we explain everything you should know.
What is the APS-e4 and who is it designed for?
The APS-e4 is a multifunction portable invasive electrotherapy device, specifically designed for physiotherapists, rehabilitation clinics, and healthcare professionals who work with advanced techniques such as percutaneous electrolysis, electro-puncture, neuromodulation, TENS, or microcurrents.
Its compact and lightweight design, together with an intuitive interface based on a 3.5” TFT screen, allows it to be used both in the clinic and during travel, without sacrificing precise control of all treatment parameters.
Unlike other more limited devices, the APS-e4 integrates different types of current in a single unit, making it a particularly interesting solution for professionals seeking to optimize space, investment, and clinical versatility without multiplying equipment.
Technical features that make the difference
One of the major strengths of the APS-e4 is its balance between clinical power and ease of use. Its main features include:
- Continuous galvanic current, especially indicated for therapeutic percutaneous electrolysis (IPEN) treatments.
- Symmetrical and asymmetrical biphasic current, used in neuromodulation and analgesia techniques.
- Symmetrical monophasic current, useful in different electrostimulation applications.
- Rechargeable battery with USB-C connection, allowing operation both connected to the mains and autonomously.
In addition, the APSE-4 has been designed with continuous evolution in mind. Thanks to its update system, the software can incorporate progressive improvements and optimizations, developed based on feedback received from recognized professors in invasive electrotherapy, researchers, and our own clients.
At Agupunt, we actively listen to all opinions in order to continue refining the device and offer increasingly complete and up-to-date equipment, without requiring professionals to purchase a new unit every time technical or functional improvements are implemented.
- Parámetros totalmente personalizables, ajustables en tiempo real durante la sesión.
- Formato compacto y peso reducido, ideal para el uso diario en clínica o para el transporte.
- Kit completo incluido, con maletín, manípulo, electrodos, cables (incluido cable tipo pulpo) y agujas.
Esta combinación técnica permite adaptar cada tratamiento al paciente, algo fundamental en un enfoque terapéutico individualizado y basado en la evidencia clínica.
Treatments you can perform with the APS-e4
Thanks to its versatility, the APS-e4 allows multiple techniques to be integrated within the same clinical workflow.
Therapeutic percutaneous electrolysis (IPEN)
The application of continuous galvanic current via needle promotes tissue regeneration processes in tendinopathies, chronic muscle injuries, and connective tissue disorders. It is one of the most widely used techniques today in invasive physiotherapy.
Neuromodulation
Neuromodulation makes it possible to influence the peripheral and central nervous systems, modulating pain response and facilitating functional recovery through controlled electrical stimuli.
Dry electro-puncture
Electro-puncture combines traditional dry needling with the application of electrical current, acting directly on myofascial trigger points, reducing pain and improving muscle function.
TENS and pain control
The APS-e4 allows the application of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), a technique widely used for the treatment of acute and chronic pain, both in initial phases and in maintenance processes.
Microcurrents
Microcurrents, applied at subsensory intensities, are especially useful in sensitive patients or in tissue recovery processes where the goal is to stimulate cellular activity without causing discomfort.
It is precisely this ability to combine different techniques in a single device that makes the APS-e4 a particularly interesting tool for clinics wishing to expand their therapeutic range without increasing the number of devices.
If you want to delve deeper into this point, you can find more information about the available versions of the APS-e4 and their differences, a key aspect when choosing the most suitable model for your clinical practice.
Available APS-e4 models
At Agupunt we offer one version of the APSE-4:
APS-e4 FULL
This is the most complete version. It allows work with all the currents and techniques described above, making it ideal for clinics seeking a versatile device adaptable to different types of patients and treatments.
Other electrotherapy equipment from Agupunt Technology
In addition to the APS-e4, at Agupunt we have other professional electrotherapy devices which, although they will be available soon, complete our range and respond to different clinical needs and professional stages.
APS-e1: essential electrotherapy for clinical practice
The APS-e1 is a next-generation manual acupuncture point locator and trigger point stimulator, designed to be precise, lightweight, and easy to use.
This device incorporates functions such as polarity switching, frequency selection, and microcurrent stimulation, and features two modes of use: one for acupuncture point exploration and another for treatment with 10 adjustable intensity levels, making it an effective tool for therapies related to muscle pain, joint pain, or trigger point disorders.
Here you will find all the detailed information about its clinical applications and features.
APS-e2: one step further in therapeutic versatility
The APS-e2 is a high-precision portable electrostimulator designed for those who wish to integrate neuromodulation, electro-puncture, and/or electroacupuncture into their clinical practice.
This device features 3 independent intensity channels, a rechargeable battery, and USB-C connectivity, allowing different areas of the body to be treated simultaneously and in a personalized way according to patient needs.
Find more information about the APS-e2 here, where we detail its applications and technical characteristics.
Knowing the full range makes it easier to assess which solution best fits each stage: from a first contact with electrotherapy to the incorporation of more advanced invasive electrotherapy techniques.
