Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) is a therapeutic technique that uses electrical impulses to cause muscle contractions. These contractions mimic the natural signals sent by the nervous system, helping to re-educate muscles, prevent atrophy, and accelerate recovery.
EMS is particularly valuable for patients who are unable to perform voluntary exercises due to pain, injury, or post-surgical restrictions. It helps maintain muscle mass, improve circulation, and reduce swelling during the early stages of recovery.
The treatment is safe and comfortable — electrodes are placed on the skin over the target muscles, and the intensity is adjusted to the patient's comfort level. EMS is often used alongside manual therapy and rehabilitation exercises for optimal results.
