Electrical muscle stimulation is a therapeutic modality that is used in pain management and physical therapy protocols for rehabilitation. It is a non-invasive procedure that uses interferential current. The average treatment time is 15 minutes.
It is used to treat tendons and ligaments as well as muscles, deep joints and viscera. It has been clinically proven to increase muscle tone, blood flow and lymphatic flow as well. It stimulates endorphin release and enkephalin production.
It is a useful adjunct when treating the following conditions: bursitis, capsulitis, disc syndromes, edema, facet syndrome, frozen shoulder, heel spur, low back pain (lumbago), migraine, myalgia, neuroma, osteoarthritis, sciatica, shingles, trigger points, muscle spasm, strains and sprains, stiffness, tendonitis, and TMJ dysfunction. (This is not a complete list of indications).
It is a painless procedure and many patients report they experience a pleasant sensation when being treated.
