Compex EMS Therapy in Davenport
At Abundant Health Physical Medicine, we offer electrical muscle stimulation (EMS or e-stim) as part of our elite suite of recovery services. EMS offers a dual role: it can both train your muscles and help your muscles recover from training.
We use devices made by Compex, an industry leader.
What Is Muscle Stimulation?
Muscle stim sends electronic pulses to your motor nerves, triggering muscle contractions. It does this repeatedly over the course of your session, which helps to flush out lactic acid and allows your muscles to recover from exercise more quickly and efficiently.
This therapy can also train your muscles in a way that exercise alone can’t accomplish. The repeated muscular contractions condition your muscles, but in a non-fatiguing way.
Who Is It For?
All of these benefits can help you perform at a higher level, whatever your skill level.
- Increase muscle size
- Increase muscle strength
- Increase explosive strength
- Improve Recovery
