What is Electrical Stimulation?
Electrical stimulation (E-stim) is a physical therapy modality that uses gentle electrical currents to stimulate nerves and muscles. Depending on the settings and your condition, it can reduce pain, improve circulation, promote tissue healing, or retrain weak muscles.
E-stim is often used in combination with other therapies to enhance outcomes. It’s commonly applied through small adhesive pads placed on the skin and customized by your physical therapist to target specific areas of concern.
Who Would Benefit from Electrical Stimulation?
E-stim therapy is helpful for patients dealing with acute or chronic pain, swelling after surgery, weak or inhibited muscles, or nerve dysfunction. It’s a gentle option that can be especially useful in the early stages of rehab.
How Will Electrical Stimulation Help Me?
Electrical stimulation can make therapy more effective by reducing pain and inflammation before exercise or hands-on treatment begins. In post-operative cases or when muscles aren’t activating well, E-stim can help restore control and strength more quickly.
When paired with guided exercise and manual therapy, E-stim enhances results and supports a smoother recovery. Patients often report faster relief and improved outcomes when it’s part of a comprehensive rehab plan.
