1. What tips will help me get the most benefit from my Bio Tuner?
Create a Routine
Daily, consistent use is critical to getting the benefits from your Bio Tuner—it is best to use it daily for at least 4 weeks. And the best way to do that is to incorporate the Bio Tuner into your existing daily routines. Enjoy a daily walk, have a long commute or like to read or watch TV in the evening? These are all great opportunities to add the relaxing benefits of the Bio Tuner to your day. Choose a time and place that fits your lifestyle and make it a regular part of your day.
One person reported: "I use the Bio Tuner while reading in bed as it helps me have a better sleep."
Even when your routine is interrupted by travel or unexpected events, doing what you can to continue your Bio Tuner program will help to ensure you continue to get the most benefit from the unit. The Bio Tuner is completely portable, making it easier for you to continue with your Wellness Program.
Keep it Handy
Once you've determined when to integrate the Bio Tuner into your daily routine, keep your unit and accessories in an easily accessible spot. When you see them, you will be reminded to use it. For example, if you like to read in the evenings, keep the unit with your book. The relaxed feeling you get from using the Bio Tuner may be all the motivation you need to use it daily!
Here's what works for others:
"I keep my Bio Tuner on the nightstand beside my bed – all ready for me to use it at night."
"I keep my Bio Tuner on my desk at work. My co–workers think I'm listening to music as I work, when I'm actually using my Bio Tuner."
Be Prepared
Always being prepared will help minimize any disruptions to your routine. Keep both extra batteries and extra Conductive Rubber Electrodes on hand. That way, you can quickly replace a drained battery or Rubber Electrodes that have lost their conductivity.
Listen to Your Body
A helpful part of the process of a wellness journey is acknowledging the triumphs as well as the bumps in the road. Keeping a journal of your experiences is a great way to track the overall benefits on your wellness journey. Looking back can be a great motivator when you see the changes that have come over time.

2. Do I need to have the Bio Tuner on high in order for it to work best?
The unit does not need to be turned up to maximum. Turn the intensity switch only until the current can be felt. It is best that the level of intensity be comfortable. With repeated use, the buzzing sensation may not be felt as much.
3. What can be done to reduce skin irritation on the ear lobes?
A few individuals may experience skin irritation when using the Bio Tuner.
Here are some suggestions to reduce irritation:
Ensure the Ear Clip Rubber Electrodes are fully conductive. You can check this by touching the Rubber Electrodes together. Turn the intensity dial to full in Mode 1.
If the YELLOW Light comes on brightly, the Electrodes are fully conductive. If not, the Ear Clip Rubber Electrodes should be replaced. Electrodes that are not fully conductive may deliver a prickly feeling contributing to irritation.
Wash ear lobes before applying the Electrodes. Our skin has natural oils that can interact with the electricity which may result in a "stinging" sensation.
Wet the Ear Clip Rubber Electrodes with water before each session, or
Use conductive gel or colloidal silver gel to wet the Ear Clip Rubber Electrodes before each session.
Turn down the intensity.
Wash ear lobes after each session and apply a healing gel or lotion such as aloe vera, vitamin E oil or MSM cream.
4. What are the six Modes for?
The Bio Tuner provides six different Modes for you to experiment and discover which works best with you. The choice of Modes also allows you to try different Modes for comfort. You may find some Modes are more comfortable than others. Note: The Bio Tuner Lite only offers Mode 1.
In all Modes, the base frequency of 1,000 Hz pulse-modulated by 111.11 Hz is present. Modes 1, 2, and 3 may seem stronger because the pulse width is wider. Modes 4, 5, and 6 may be perceived as having a gentler feel as the pulse width is narrower.
You will notice the only difference between the Modes is the output, or how the frequency is delivered. You can choose a different output depending on your feeling preference – a continuous output, one second on/one second off, or the 7.83 Hz Earth Schumann frequency.
Mode 5: 1,000 Hz modulated by 111.11 Hz Output = 1 Second ON, 1 Second OFF (0.5 Hz)
Mode 6: 1,000 Hz modulated by 111.11 Hz Output = Amplitude Modulated by 7.83 Hz Schumann (Earth) Sine Wave
One Mode is not considered to be more beneficial than another. You will receive a broad range of harmonic frequencies, not one single frequency, so you can’t get it "wrong".
5. Is it okay to use the Bio Tuner on animals?
We don't know. We have no feedback about the Bio Tuner being used on animals nor have we tried it on our own pets. We do not know enough about the differences between humans and animals to be able to form an opinion on whether it would be safe or not. At this time, we do not recommend using the Bio Tuner on animals.
6. I’ve heard electricity can be harmful. Why is the Bio Tuner beneficial?
There is a difference between harmful and beneficial electric current. Microcurrent, pulsed magnetic field and frequency units are designed to use safe levels of electricity. The SOTA units are all designed to work with the body’s natural electricity.
On the other hand, high voltage transformers and power lines delivering electricity to our homes to run our household appliances and the wireless technology used by cell phones can have harmful effects.
The SOTA units have all passed testing to gain CE certification. This is a European standard that indicates an electronic unit conforms to essential safety requirements to operate as a household consumer product.
7. How long should the battery last?
The SOTA Bio Tuner has been designed to ensure the maximum life of a battery. Battery life depends on how high you need the output and the type of battery used. We recommend a 9-Volt Alkaline battery as they usually last between 12–20 hours (8-10 hours for the Bio Tuner Lite).
It is important to use 9-Volt Alkaline batteries. Batteries that are marked "Heavy Duty" or "Extra Duty" are designed for slow drain items and will not work as efficiently with the Bio Tuner.
Rechargeable 9-Volt batteries are also an option for powering the Bio Tuner. Be careful though – not all rechargeable batteries are the same size. The only way to be certain the battery will fit in the enclosure properly is to try it with your Bio Tuner.
8. How do I know when the Rubber Electrodes in the Ear Clips for the Bio Tuner need to be replaced?
The Rubber Electrodes in your Ear Clips will lose conductivity over time. An indication that your Rubber Electrodes may need replacing is if the intensity is less than you normally feel or you stop feeling it altogether or the output starts to feel "prickly".
You can test your Rubber Electrodes by turning the Bio Tuner ON and touching the two Rubber Electrodes together then turning the intensity dial to full in Mode 1. Does the YELLOW Light come on brightly?
If the YELLOW Light comes on brightly and consistently, the Rubber Electrodes appear to be conductive. If the YELLOW Light is not consistent, goes out or is dim, the Rubber Electrodes need to be replaced.
9. Where is the Bio Tuner manufactured?
The manufacturing of the SOTA Products is a global collaboration. The following countries participate in the making of the Bio Tuner (listed in alphabetical order): Canada, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Morocco, Thailand and Taiwan. Our units say Made in China because China is the last step in the assembly of the units.
We are grateful that the people in all of these countries help us to produce quality products at reasonable prices for our customers.
