This unit is acombination stimulator of TENS and EMS which can be used formuscle stimulation and pain relief. The LG-8TM 4 Channel TENS/EMS Unit is a battery operated pulsegenerator that sends electrical impulses electrodes to the body andreach the nerves and underlying muscle group. Maintaining or increasing range of motionThe EMS units send comfortable impulses through the skin thatstimulate the nerves in the treatment area.

Immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent Prevention or retardation of disuse atroph圓. Thisis being widely used in hospitals and sports clinics for the treatmentof muscular injuries and for the re-education of paralyzed muscles,to prevent atrophy in affected muscles and improving muscle toneand blood circulation. The LG-8TM 4 ChannelTENS/EMS Unit has low frequency and this in conjunction with thesquare wave pattern allows direct work on muscle groupings. Through the square wave pattern it is ableto work directly on muscle motor neurons. It works by sending electronicpulses to the muscle needing treatment this causes the muscle toexercise passively.It is a product derived from the square waveform, originally inventedby John Faraday in 1831. You may discussthis with your physician or therapist.Įlectrical Muscle Stimulation is an internationally accepted and provenway of treating muscular injuries. In others, pain isonly modified while stimulation actually occurs. In many patients, the reduction orelimination of pain lasts longer than the actual period of stimulation(sometimes as much as three to four times longer). Pain relief varies by individual patient, mode selectedfor therapy, and the type of pain. In many cases, thisstimulation will greatly reduce or eliminate the pain sensation thepatient feels. TheTENS unit sends comfortable impulses through the skin that stimulatethe nerve (or nerves) in the treatment area. TENS is intended to be used to relieve pain. There is nothing “magic” about Transcutaneous Electrical NerveStimulation (TENS). PDF created with FinePrint pdfFactory trial version Application of Reusable selfĪdhesive electrodes.
