Electric Muscle Stimulation involves applying low levels of electrical impulses to an injured area to reduce pain, inflammation, muscle spasm, and to accelerate the healing process. Often described by patients as an “electric massage”, these impulses can stimulate the body to release natural pain relievers, called endorphins, as well as increase circulation to the injured area, thereby allowing for quicker healing with less pain. Electric Muscle Stimulation can also help to strengthen and “retrain” a muscle that has been weakened by injury.
