Electrical stimulation is a therapeutic technique that uses electrical currents to stimulate muscles and nerves, promoting muscle contraction, pain relief, and tissue healing. This technique is commonly used in rehabilitation to improve muscle strength, reduce swelling, relieve pain, and accelerate recovery from injuries.
The electrical currents are delivered through electrodes placed on the skin, and they can target specific muscles or nerves to help improve function or reduce pain. Electrical stimulation can also be used to manage conditions like muscle atrophy, chronic pain, and nerve injuries.
This technique is non-invasive and highly effective in rehabilitation, promoting faster recovery, reducing pain, and restoring muscle function.
