What Is Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS)?
Electrical Muscle Stimulation, also known as E-STIM or EMS, uses gentle electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions. At LiveSmart Chiropractic & Rehab in San Diego, we use EMS to help:
Control muscle spasms
Reduce pain and inflammation
Promote healing and tissue recovery
Improve muscle function and strength
EMS is versatile and widely used for:
Strength training for healthy individuals and athletes
Rehabilitation for partially or fully immobilized patients
Assessing nerve and muscle function
Post-exercise recovery to speed healing and reduce soreness
The electrical impulses are delivered through adhesive electrode pads placed on your skin near the targeted muscles. These impulses mimic your nervous system signals, causing your muscles to contract and relax, enhancing strength and healing. EMS is backed by sports science research and is a powerful complement to chiropractic care.
What Is Therapeutic Ultrasound?
Therapeutic ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive treatment that sends sound waves deep into your bodyβs soft tissues. These sound waves produce gentle heat and vibration, which:
Promote tissue relaxation
Increase local blood flow
Break down scar tissue and adhesions
Reduce swelling and chronic inflammation
Support bone fracture healing (supported by some studies)
We adjust the ultrasound intensity to match your specific needs and treatment goals. Ultrasound therapy is especially effective when combined with chiropractic care to speed recovery and improve mobility.
