WHAT IS MS (Muscle Stimulator)?
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MS!
Introduction to the Mini MS Device
The Mini MS (Muscle Stimulation) device is a compact and portable physiotherapy tool designed to provide effective pain relief and muscle rehabilitation. This device uses electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions, helping to reduce pain, improve circulation, and promote muscle strength and recovery. Due to its compact size, the Mini MS is highly versatile and can be used in both clinical settings and at home.
Key Features of the Mini MS Device
Compact and Portable
Small in size, making it easy to carry and use at home or during travel.
Multiple Intensity Levels
Adjustable settings for different levels of stimulation to suit individual needs.
Multiple Electrode Pads
Comes with easy-to-use adhesive electrode pads that can be placed on various body parts.
Non-Invasive and Drug-Free
Provides a safe, non-invasive method for pain relief without the need for medications.
How Does the MS Muscle Stimulator Work?
The MS muscle stimulator works by sending low-frequency electrical impulses to the muscles through adhesive electrodes placed on the skin. These impulses mimic the signals naturally sent by the nervous system to cause muscle contractions. The device can be adjusted to different intensity levels depending on the user’s needs, such as muscle strengthening, pain relief, or relaxation.
When the device is activated:
- Muscle Contraction: The electrical impulses cause the targeted muscle group to contract, similar to what happens during physical exercise.
- Muscle Relaxation: After the contraction, the muscle relaxes, aiding in recovery and reducing muscle stiffness.
- Blood Circulation Improvement: The repetitive contraction and relaxation increase blood flow to the area, accelerating the healing process by delivering oxygen and nutrients to the tissues.
Benefits of Using an MS Muscle Stimulator
How to Use the MS Muscle Stimulator
Preparation
1. Clean the skin where the electrodes will be placed to remove any oils or sweat.
2. Attach the electrodes to the areas of the body where treatment is needed. Common areas include the back, shoulders, legs, and arms.
Device Settings
1. Set the intensity level based on the goal of the session (muscle strengthening, pain relief, or recovery). Start at a low level and increase gradually as tolerated.
2. Choose the program mode depending on the desired outcome. The MS muscle stimulator often comes with pre-set programs for different needs (e.g., muscle strengthening, TENS for pain relief, etc.).
Treatment Duration
1. For muscle strengthening, a typical session lasts between 15 to 30 minutes.
2. For pain relief, the duration can range from 20 to 40 minutes.
3. Do not exceed more than 60 minutes per session and allow adequate rest between sessions. It is generally recommended to use the device 2-3 times per week for the best results.
