Electrical Stimulation

What Is Electrical Stimulation?

Electrical stimulation is a noninvasive therapy used to reduce pain, improve circulation, and activate muscle function. It may be recommended if you are recovering from surgery, dealing with muscle weakness, or experiencing chronic pain that limits your mobility. This treatment works by delivering gentle electrical currents through the skin to stimulate nerves and muscles, helping restore strength and comfort.

Electrical stimulation therapy may be recommended if you experience:

  • Chronic pain conditions, such as arthritis or back pain
  • Difficulty regaining strength after rehabilitation begins
  • Muscle weakness following injury, surgery, or prolonged immobility
  • Numbness or tingling caused by nerve irritation or damage
  • Persistent pain that interferes with movement or daily activities

Benefits of electrical stimulation include:

  • Improved blood flow to support healing
  • Pain relief without invasive treatment
  • Reduced swelling and inflammation
  • Restored function for weakened muscles
  • Support for nerve recovery and mobility after injury or surgery
