What
is Electronic Nerve Stimulation?
Electrode
pads are placed over the painful area of the body or at key points along
the nerve pathway. A compact battery powered device emits the electrical
signals through lead wires to the electrodes.
How
does it work?
A
muscle pumping action will relieve stiffness and tiredness in the muscle
by extending and contracting the muscle. Fresh blood rushes into the
relaxed muscle and then the blood containing ‘waste’ is flushed out
when the muscle contracts. This repeated muscle pumping process improves
blood flow and relieves shoulder stiffness, tired legs and cramps.
By
applying low-frequency signals to the painful area, the nerves near this
area undergo excitation, which affects the pain-transmission mechanism
(inhibits pain messages) towards the spinal cord, although this has a
relatively short effect the sense of pain is relieved. Electrical waves
also stimulate the body to produce natural morphine like substances
(endorphins). These have a longer effect of 5-12 hours.
What
to use a Electronic Nerve Stimulator for?
For
relief of stiff shoulders, tired legs, cramp or numbness in legs, back
pain, neuralgia, muscle pain, painful joints and other acute or chronic
pains.
Why
use an Electronic Nerve Stimulator?
They
have been shown to be effective for many people and for a variety of
complaints. They have few side effects and are safe and non-intrusive.
Added to this fact there is no medication involved and therefore can be
used in conjunction with other treatments. They are compact and easy to
use and can be used in almost any situation.
