Referring to the operation of the low-frequency treatment device having a heat function according to the present invention having the configuration as described above in detail.

First, when the power of the power supply unit 10 is turned on, the system is initialized in a state where power is applied to each internal component. At this time, the user operates the key input unit 30 to select a program for treatment. The microcomputer 35 has a variety of automatic treatment programs built-in, so that the user can easily select it while checking the display unit 15.

Then, when the control signal is output from the microcomputer 35 to the low frequency generator 20 according to the selected program, the low frequency generator 20 receives the oscillation voltage of high potential from the DC power supplied from the power source 10.

At this time, if the intensity control switch 3 is not in the 'off' position when the power supply unit 10 is on, '----' is displayed on the display unit 15 to indicate the state. Inform the user. In this case, when the user turns the intensity control switch 3 to the 'off' position and raises the output again, the normal operation is performed.
