What is electrical stimulation in Shorewood WI?

Electrical stimulation, or e-stim, uses low-level electrical currents to induce muscle contraction. The current fully activates the muscle, reducing pain, muscle spasms, and inflammation.

How does it work?

Either two or four electrode pads are placed on your skin; the exact area is determined by your chiropractor to maximize the benefits. Once turned on, the process should not be painful and has been described as a tingling sensation, similar to when your foot falls asleep. Treatment takes about 10 minutes.

What are the benefits of Electrical Muscle Stimulation?

E-stim can be beneficial for chronic or acute neck, back, shoulder, or knee pain, muscle tension, or spasms.
