HOW EMS WORKS FOR MUSCLE STIMULATION
What is it?
EMS works by sending electronic pulses to the muscle needing
treatment; this causes the muscle to exercise passively. It is a
product derived from the square waveform (ladder shaped). Through
the square wave pattern it is able to work directly on muscle motor
neurons. This device has low frequency and this in conjunction with
the square wave pattern allows direct work on muscle groupings.
How EMS works?
The EMS units send comfortable impulses through the skin that
stimulate the nerves in the treatment area. When the muscle receives
this signal it contracts as if the brain has sent the signal itself. As the
signal strength increases, the muscle flexes as in physical exercise.
Then when the pulse ceases, the muscle relaxes and the cycle is
repeated. The goal of electrical muscle stimulation is to achieve
contractions or vibrations in the muscles. Normal muscular activity
is controlled by the central and peripheral nervous systems, which
transmit electrical signals to the muscles. EMS works similarly but
uses an external source (the stimulator) with electrodes attached
S F
to the skin for transmitting electrical impulses into the body. The
impulses stimulate the nerves to send signals to a specifically
targeted muscle, which reacts by contracting, just as it does with
normal muscular activity.
How MASSAGE works?
The massage stimulation program is a stimulation program that is
used with the EMS mode of stimulation to facilitate recovery from
muscle fatigue and to help recover muscle strength after training
sessions and competitions.
