A new drug-free, minimally invasive intervention targets the root cause of progressive loss of neural function in spinal ...

The study found that combining traditional resistance training with electrical stimulation produced better results than weight training alone. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES ...

New research suggests that electrical spinal cord stimulation could improve muscle function for patients who have spinal ...

As the authors note, neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) devices are affordable, widely available, and easy to use — so the findings could offer a practical way to boost gains for ...

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), or electrical muscle stimulation for short, uses electrical currents to contract muscles. The stimulation devices are easy to use and widely available ...

(Pexels) The study simplified the process of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). The process involves pads placed on the skin which deliver small electric pulses, making the muscles contract.

A new electrical stimulation therapy for spinal muscle atrophy (SMA) has shown promise in reactivating motor neurons and ...

Mechanically ventilated patients’ respiratory function can be improved with pulmonary rehabilitation, especially IMT and NMES.

In the world of physical therapy, innovation is key to helping patients recover faster, regain mobility, and reduce pain. One ...

neuromuscular electrical stimulation to improve motor outcomes; botulinum toxin for focal spasticity; and a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor or a serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor ...

In a small human trial in SMA patients neurostimulation sessions improved motoneuron function, reduced fatigue, and improved leg muscle strength and walking.
