The Unseen Benefits: How Electrotherapy Can Improve Circulation and Healing
Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is a type of electrotherapy that is often used in physical therapy. It works by sending electrical pulses to the muscles, causing them to contract. This can be used to strengthen muscles that have become weak due to an injury or disuse. It can also be used to prevent muscle atrophy in people who are unable to move due to an illness or injury. For example, in a post-surgical recovery, an NMES device can be used to stimulate the muscles and prevent them from becoming weak. The ability of NMES to unlock a person's muscles and help them regain strength and function is a major therapeutic benefit. This crucial function is a key driver for the growth of a significant segment of the Electrotherapy Market.
