Myostimulation

Electrical muscle stimulation uses electrical impulses to produce controlled muscle contractions in a selected treatment area.

Electrical stimulation is used to produce externally triggered muscle contractions through pulsed current. Its role depends on the treatment goal: cosmetic programs and medical neuromuscular stimulation have different purposes and protocols. At Ahvar Clinic, device parameters should correspond to the specific equipment and treatment objective.

What it addresses / benefits

  • electrical stimulation of muscle contractions
  • localized work with selected muscle groups
  • adjustable impulse intensity
  • device-based treatment format
  • possible use in selected recovery programs.

Preparation

Patients should report pacemakers or other implanted electronic devices, pregnancy, epilepsy, and disorders affecting the electrode placement area. Exact contraindications depend on the equipment used.

How the procedure is performed

Electrodes are placed on the skin over the selected muscles. The device delivers controlled electrical impulses that trigger muscle contractions.

Result / recovery

Temporary muscle fatigue may occur afterward. Electrical muscle stimulation is not a standalone weight-loss or “fat-burning” method.
