What Is Electrical Stimulation?

Electrical stimulation is a type of physical therapy modality or treatment used to accomplish various tasks in physical therapy (PT). The idea is that applying an electrical current helps strengthen muscles, block pain signals, and improve blood circulation.

If you have an injury or illness that causes pain or prevents you from easily moving around, your physical therapist may use electrical stimulation, or e-stim, as a part of your rehabilitation program.

Why E-Stim Is Used

Electrical stimulation is used for many reasons in physical therapy. It can be used to:

• Provide medication for inflammation
• Improve muscles that are weak or not functioning correctly
• Help decrease pain or spasms

If you are experiencing pain, spasms, inflammation, or muscle weakness, your physical therapist may use this treatment to help you.

Some of the medical conditions you can treat with e-stim include:

• Low back pain
• Post-surgical pain
• Muscle weakness or poor motor control

How does Physiotrack pen electrode works:-

Muscle stimulation with pen electrode creates steady electric impulses that stimulate muscle contractions--many of them over a sustained therapy session. This repetitive contracting and relaxing of the muscle has the effect of:

• Increasing circulation (blood flow) to the affected tissue area, which helps in repair.
• Improving strength by flexing and working weakened muscles.
• Slowing the process of muscle atrophy by strengthening weakened or unused muscles.
• Adapting (training or “educating”) muscle fibers to certain patterns of response (e.g., contracts the fibers that are responsible for force, which results in building strength).

Usage:

• Muscle re-education,
• Relaxation of muscle spasms,
• Increased range of motion,
• Prevention of muscle atrophy,
• Stroke patients,
• Facial palsy
