The Science Behind E-Stim
E-Stim works by mimicking the body's natural electrical impulses. When applied to the skin, these currents can:
- Interfere with pain signals to the brain
- Stimulate the production of endorphins (natural pain relievers)
- Improve blood circulation
- Promote muscle contraction and relaxation
Types of E-Stim
- TENS
(Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation): Primarily used for pain relief
- EMS
(Electrical Muscle Stimulation): Used for muscle strengthening and rehabilitation
- IFC
(Interferential Current): Combines two medium-frequency currents for deeper penetration
- Pre-Mod:
A modified version of IFC, often used for chronic pain conditions
How Does E-Stim Work?
E-Stim delivers electrical impulses through electrodes placed on the skin. These impulses:
- Stimulate sensory nerves to block pain signals
- Cause muscles to contract, improving strength and blood flow
- Promote the release of endorphins for natural pain relief
E-Stim in Sports Medicine
Professional athletes often use E-Stim for quick recovery between training sessions and to manage minor injuries without medication.
What Does E-Stim Treat?
- Acute and chronic pain conditions
- Muscle weakness or atrophy
- Post-operative rehabilitation

Many insurance plans cover E-Stim treatments when prescribed by a physician
Alternatives to E-Stim
- Manual therapy techniques
- Therapeutic exercises
- Ultrasound therapy
- Laser therapy
