Compex EMS Therapy in Davenport

muscle stimulation on neckAt 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.

E-stim is also a great warmup prior to exercise. Research shows that properly warming up muscles prior to working out reduces the risk of injury.

Who Is It For?

Athletes, weekend warriors and anybody who ever has sore muscles can benefit from electronic muscle stimulation. We may use it with your customized chiropractic care plan to help speed healing.

All of these benefits can help you perform at a higher level, whatever your skill level.

In addition, for those looking to improve muscular performance, regular use of e-stim along with your regular workouts may help to

  • Increase muscle size
  • Increase muscle strength
  • Increase explosive strength
  • Improve Recovery
