Electrostimulation, also known as electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) or neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), is a therapeutic technique that uses electrical impulses to stimulate muscles and nerves. It involves the application of electrodes to the skin, which deliver controlled electrical currents to targeted muscles or nerves.
These impulses cause the muscles to contract and relax, leading to a range of therapeutic effects, including:
1. Muscle Strengthening:
2. Pain Relief:
3. Muscle Relaxation.
