Questions about electrostimulation
1. What is electrotherapy? ▾
Electrotherapy is a tried and tested medical treatment method, used for rehabilitation, pain treatment and for training sportsmen and women.
The working principle behind electrostimulation is very simple. It faithfully reproduces the process by which muscle contractions are controlled by the brain. So, with electrostimulation, the activity in your muscles is triggered by electrical impulses sent by our devices to the motor nerve. Your muscle cannot distinguish between a contraction triggered by your brain and one triggered by electrostimulation. This is known as electrically induced contraction.
