About EMS

Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS)

Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) is a cutting-edge technology that uses electricity to activate muscles to stimulate growth and recovery. EMS can be used to enhance athletic performance or as a rehabilitation tool, helping people with injuries regain strength and mobility.

Who is it for?

Who Can Benefit from EMS?

EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) therapy can benefit a wide range of people, including athletes, individuals recovering from injury or surgery, older adults looking to maintain muscle strength and mobility, and anyone looking to improve their overall fitness and health. EMS therapy can help build and strengthen muscles, increase endurance, improve flexibility, and reduce pain and inflammation. It can also be a useful tool in rehabilitation and physical therapy, helping people recover from injuries or surgeries more quickly and effectively. Additionally, EMS therapy can be an effective way to target specific muscle groups that may be difficult to engage through traditional exercise. Ultimately, EMS therapy can benefit anyone looking to enhance their physical performance, improve their health, and achieve their fitness goals.

How does it work?

How EMS therapy affects the body

EMS works by sending electrical impulses to the body’s motor nerves, causing muscles to contract and relax. This process improves muscle tone and strength, increases endurance and speed, and reduces recovery time after workouts. EMS is a safe and effective way to take your training to the next level.

Electrodes

The electrodes are placed on the skin over the muscles being targeted.

Electric Pulse

The electric pulse stimulates the motor nerves in the muscles causing them to contract and relax.

Effective Results

The repeated contraction and relaxation of the muscles leads to increased strength and tone.

What’s the difference between EMS and TENS units?

EMS and TENS units serve different purposes. However, they operate on the same principle. Both of them involve applying an electrical current to specific areas of your body. EMS units focus on muscle stimulation for rehabilitation, strengthening and recovery. TENS units target nerves for pain relief.

So I’ve been lifting for a while about 3 years now and I started to reach a point where I was not making any progress. I also had trouble keeping weight on and maintaining muscle mass. I was also having problems with my stomach always hurting. Letitia was so friendly and very helpful. Now I am very proud to say I do not have any stomach problems plus over all feeling stronger and healthier.

Since going to True Health, I have been set on a course of recovery physically and mentally. Tish has helped me with the multiple pains, weight loss, nutritional advice and a continuous wealth of knowledge to help improve my overall health giving hope for the future.

One year after surgery I noticed how my body was still swelling in certain areas. I eat healthy and workout out. My sister Jenn introduced me to Tish while at Phoenixes Fitness of GVL. Tish understood all I am experiencing and explained lymphatic drainage. I can not express how different I feel in the best way. It’s like my body is flowing properly. Swelling is down. When I workout I don't puff up any more. Tish is the best! I am forever grateful the way she has helped me become healthier.
