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, 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,…

Electro Stim Therapy
Electro stim therapy, also known as electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) or neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), is a non-invasive treatment that uses electrical impulses to contract and relax muscles. The therapy is used to relieve pain, improve muscle strength and endurance, and promote healing in conditions such as muscle strains, sprains, and injuries. It can also…

Electric Stimulation Therapy At Home
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…
