A terminal device is configured to wirelessly communicate with electrical treatment devices. Each one of the electrical treatment devices comprises a case and a vibration source that vibrates the case. The terminal device comprises a display control unit that displays image information associated with the each one of the electrical treatment devices on a display of the terminal device; a vibration instruction unit that instructs one of the electrical treatment devices associated with image information selected by a user to vibrate the case; and a treatment content setting unit that sets a treatment content performed by the each one of the electrical treatment devices in accordance with an instruction from the user notified by vibration of the case. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A terminal device configured to wirelessly communicate with electrical treatment devices, each one of the electrical treatment devices comprising a case and a vibration source configured to vibrate the case, the terminal device comprising: a processor configured to: display, in a single display, image information associated with the each one of the electrical treatment devices on a display of the terminal device; receive a selection of image information associated with one of the electrical treatment devices and instruct the one of the electrical treatment devices that was selected to vibrate the case of the one of the electrical treatment devices; and set a treatment content performed by the each one of the electrical treatment devices in accordance with an instruction from the user to set the treatment notified by vibration of the case. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The terminal device according to claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to instruct the each one of the electrical treatment devices to treat the user in accordance with a treatment content corresponding to the each one of the electrical treatment devices. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The terminal device according to claim 2, wherein the processor is further configured to swap a first treatment content corresponding to a first electrical treatment device of the electrical treatment devices and a second treatment content corresponding to a second electrical treatment device of the electrical treatment devices in accordance with an instruction from the user to swap the first treatment content and the second treatment content; and when the first treatment content and the second treatment content have been swapped, the processor is further configured to instruct the first electrical treatment device and the second electrical treatment device to treat the user in accordance with the first treatment content and the second treatment content which have been swapped. ### Claim 4 (depends on 2) The terminal device according to claim 2, wherein when one of the electrical treatment devices is performing treatment in accordance with the treatment content that is set, the processor is further configured to instruct the one of the electrical treatment devices to vibrate the case on the basis of image information associated with the one of the electrical treatment device being selected; and the treatment content comprises a treatment mode in which an electrical stimulation that does not cause muscle contraction is provided to a treatment site. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The terminal device according to claim 1, wherein when image information associated with a predetermined electrical treatment device of the electrical treatment devices is associated with a predetermined treatment content, the processor is further configured to set the predetermined treatment content as a treatment content performed by the predetermined electrical treatment device. ### Claim 6 A control method of a terminal device configured to wirelessly communicate with electrical treatment devices, each one of the electrical treatment devices comprising a case and a vibration source configured to vibrate the case, the control method comprising: displaying, in a single display, image information associated with the each one of the electrical treatment devices; receiving a selection of image information associated with one of the electrical treatment devices and instructing the one of the electrical treatment devices that was selected to vibrate the case of the one of the electrical treatment devices; and setting a treatment content performed by the each one of the electrical treatment devices in accordance with an instruction from the user notified by vibration of the case. ### Claim 7 A non-transitory recording medium storing a program executed by a computer of a terminal device configured to wirelessly communicate with electrical treatment devices, each one of the electrical treatment devices comprising a case and a vibration source configured to vibrate the case, the program causing the computer to execute: displaying, in a single display, image information associated with the each one of the electrical treatment devices; receiving a selection of image information associated with one of the electrical treatment devices and instructing the one of the electrical treatment devices that was selected to vibrate the case of the one of the electrical treatment devices; and setting a treatment content performed by the each one of the electrical treatment devices in accordance with an instruction from the user notified by vibration of the case. ### Claim 8 A treatment system, comprising: electrical treatment devices; and a terminal device configured to wirelessly communicate with the electrical treatment devices; wherein each one of the electrical treatment devices comprises a case and a vibration source configured to vibrate the case, and the terminal device comprises a processor configured to: display, in a single display, image information associated with the each one of the electrical treatment devices on a display of the terminal device; receive a selection of image information associated with one of the electrical treatment devices and instruct the one of the electrical treatment devices that was selected to vibrate the case of the one of the electrical treatment devices; and set a treatment content performed by the each one of the electrical treatment devices in accordance with an instruction from the user notified by vibration of the case, wherein only the case of the one of the electrical treatment devices that was selected vibrates in response to the instruction. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The terminal device according to claim 1, wherein the image information includes identifying information identifying each one of the electrical treatment devices, and wherein the processor is further configured to: receive an indication of a selection of the displayed identifying information of the only one of the electrical treatment devices, and change the display, in response to the received indication of the selection, to display the treatment content performed by the each one of the electrical treatment devices.
