Electromuscular Stimulation in Laguna Hills, CA

Electromuscular Stimulation is one of 14 modalities we offer patients from Laguna Hills. The office sits right here in Laguna Hills, close enough for Nellie Gail Ranch residents to build it into a real care plan.

How it works

Inside a electromuscular stimulation session.

01

Place the pads

Skin-safe adhesive electrodes are placed on either side of the target muscle or nerve pathway.

02

Set the mode

Depending on the goal we choose sensory-level (TENS for pain) or motor-level (EMS for muscle activation) settings.

03

Modulate signals

The current interrupts pain-signal transmission and drives fresh blood into the treatment area.

04

Retest and layer

We reassess range of motion and pair the session with adjusting, stretching, or manual soft-tissue work.

What you can expect
