    Why Is Electrical Stimulation Used In Physical Therapy

    Electric Stimulation Therapy (EST) is a type of physical therapy that uses low-voltage electrical currents to stimulate the muscles and relieve pain. The electrical stimulation is delivered through electrodes placed on the skin near the affected area and is designed to activate the underlying muscles, reducing muscle spasms, improving circulation, and promoting healing. EST is…

  • Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

    Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

    Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive therapy that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the nerves in order to reduce pain. It is commonly used to relieve chronic pain, as well as acute pain related to conditions such as arthritis, low back pain, and neuropathic pain. TENS works by stimulating the nerves with a…

  • Tens Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation

    Tens Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation

    Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a form of therapy that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the nerves and reduce pain. It is a non-invasive, painless treatment option that has been used for over a century to relieve pain, improve muscle strength, and promote healing. TENS uses a small device that sends electrical impulses through…

  • Tens Muscle Stimulation

    Tens Muscle Stimulation

    Complaints about low back-pains are dramatically increasing over the years. This may be because of the hefty workloads, pressures, tensions, and the fast pace life of the world we live in. Although transcutaneous electrical nerve system or TENS muscle stimulator has been introduced to people more than 30 years ago, its effectiveness until today is…

  • Nerve Stimulation Therapy

    Nerve Stimulation Therapy

    Nerve stimulation therapy, also known as neuro-modulation, is a type of medical treatment that uses electrical impulses to stimulate specific nerves in the body in order to alleviate chronic pain, neurological conditions, and other chronic medical conditions. There are several different types of nerve stimulation therapies available, each with its own set of benefits and…

    Muscle Stims

    Muscle spasms are involuntary contractions of a muscle, a group of muscles. Often they happen suddenly without any prior warning. Although muscle spasms tend to be harmless and only last a few minutes, they can occasionally be accompanied by sudden sharp bursts of pain causing the sufferer to feel very uncomfortable. Spasmism is when a…

  • Muscle Shock Therapy

    Muscle Shock Therapy

    Muscle shock therapy, also known as electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), is a medical treatment that uses electrical stimulation to induce a seizure in the brain. The treatment is primarily used to treat severe mental health conditions, such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. In this article, we will discuss the mechanism of action, indications,…

  • Micro Current Therapy

    Micro Current Therapy

    Microcurrent therapy is a type of physical therapy that uses extremely low-frequency electrical currents to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. This type of therapy is often used to treat a wide range of conditions, including pain, inflammation, and muscle and joint injuries. The microcurrents used in therapy are typically in the range of 0.5…
