What Causes Muscle Pain?

Many factors can cause muscle pain. One common cause is overuse, such as engaging in intense physical activity or performing repetitive motions. Injuries, such as strains and sprains, can also lead to muscle pain. Also, medical conditions like fibromyalgia and infections can cause muscle pain. Certain medications and supplements can also cause muscle pain as a side effect. Speaking with a medical professional can be important if you experience persistent or severe muscle pain.

How Does Electrical Muscle Stimulation Work?

Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is a technique that involves using electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contraction. EMS can be done through the use of special devices that are attached to the skin.

When the electrical impulses are applied to the muscle fibers, they cause the muscle to contract and relax. As a result, electrical impulses can help to improve muscle strength, endurance, and tone and are often used as a way to rehabilitate muscles that have been injured or weakened.

Electrical muscle stimulation can be a safe and effective way to help improve muscle function and performance.

How Does a Chiropractor Use Muscle Stimulation? 

A chiropractor may use muscle stimulation to help treat muscle pain, tightness, or spasms. Muscle stimulation involves using a small electrical current to stimulate the muscles and promote healing. The current is delivered through small pads on the skin over the affected muscles. This therapy can help increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and relieve muscle tension, potentially improving overall function and mobility. It can be used with other chiropractic treatments to provide pain relief and healing.
