Rehabilitation with electric muscle stimulation for musculoskeletal injuries

This treatment – is the elicitation of muscle contraction using Electrical impulses which are delivered through electrodes, placed on the skin, close to muscles that are to be activated, it causes them to contract. The impulses mimic muscle contraction, causing the muscles to contract and then fatigue. In medicine, electric muscle stimulation (EMS) is used for rehabilitation purposes, after musculoskeletal injuries, such as damage to joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons.
