NeuroMuscular Stimulation is a type of electro-stimulation unit known by many names in the industry such as e-stim, N.M.E.S., N.M.S., electrical muscle stimulator, etc. all of these words correspond to a unit providing electro stimulation used for the prevention or retardation of muscle spasm; muscle reeducation; maintaining and increasing the range of motion; increasing local blood circulation or as immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent venous thrombosis.
The NeuroMuscular Stimulator (E-Stim, N.M.E.S., N.M.S.,) is a form of electro-stimulation that concerns both nerves and muscles. Therefore the stimulators in this electro-stimulation category are used to stimulate the underlying nerves to elicit a muscle contraction.
The EMS 2000TM (Electrical Muscle Stimulator) is an analog unit (dials are used to adjust the settings). The unit has 2 channels allowing up to 4 electrodes to be utilized per treatment. This portable unit provides accurate electro stimulation and has a belt clip allowing the patient to wear the unit at home or in the office.
Federal (U.S.A.) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a practitioner licensed by law of the State in which he/she practices to use or order the use of the device.
