Electrical Stimulation Therapy

Electrical stimulation may sound intimidating but it’s a safe and effective treatment for muscle stimulation and pain relief. It also helps in recovery from various conditions such as stroke, injury, and other soft tissue conditions.

While there are different modes of EST, they follow a standard procedure where an electrical stimulation device that utilizes self-adhesive electrodes is placed on the target area. The electricity interacts with the sensory or motor nerves to stimulate the body’s natural painkillers and self-healing process.

Some of the benefits of electrical stimulation therapy include reduced chronic pain and swelling, improved motion and motor coordination, and reduced muscle spasms. If you feel that electrical stimulation therapy can help alleviate your symptoms, you need to find expert therapists who can listen to your concerns and choose the right approach for you.

Our Electrical Stimulation Therapy Modalities

Interferential Current (IFC)

IFC is an effective treatment for stiff joints, chronic body pain, and muscle sprain. Our specialists send tiny electrical impulses through your skin to stimulate endorphins for pain relief. We ensure you are comfortable with the sessions as we support your recovery journey toward a healthy and pain-free body.

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES)

NMES is a form of electrical stimulation treatment for dysphagia (swallowing difficulty). Our highly trained specialists attach the electrodes on the neck and send the electrical impulses to the target muscles for improved swallowing efficiency. During the electrical impulse delivery, the specialist helps the patient train their muscles using specific therapeutic exercises for the best recovery outcome.

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS)

TENS therapy is used to treat chronic and acute pain from common conditions like fibromyalgia, tendinitis, bursitis, and osteoarthritis. We place the electrodes on the target area of the body and send the current to stimulate the nerve cells which then block or reduce pain signals to your brain.

Lontophoresis

Physical therapists use Iontophoresis to administer medication into the patient’s body through the skin. Our physical therapists take time to understand your condition and the prescription from your doctor to determine the best way to administer the treatment. They’ll attach the positive and negative electrode patches on your body and apply the medication in the right patch. The electricity pushes the medication to the target area for effective pain relief and healing.
