Muscles are involuntarily contracted with electric current during electric muscle stimulation (EMS). It is employed to lessen pain and encourage tissue recovery. Muscle spasticity, stiffness, and pain can be treated using EMS. Additionally, it may be challenging to make an adjustment when muscles are exceedingly tense. In these situations, EMS can be utilized to relax the muscle and make some procedures more pleasant for the patient before an adjustment.
Ultrasound
