GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The EM6200A Digital EMS is a battery operated pulse generator that sends electrical
impulses electrodes to the body and reach the nerves and underlying muscle group.
The device is provided with four controllable output channels, each independent of
each other. An electrode pair can be connected to each output channel. The intensity
level is controlled by press buttons.
INTRODUCTION TO EMS
EXPLANATION OF EMS
Electrical Muscle Stimulation is an internationally accepted and proven way of treating
muscular injuries. It works by sending electronic pulses to the muscle needing
treatment; this causes the muscle to exercise passively.
It is a product derived from the square waveform, originally invented by John Faraday in
1831. Through the square wave pattern, it is able to work directly on muscle motor
neurons.
The EMS has a low frequency and this in conjunction with the square wave pattern
allows direct work on muscle groupings. This is being widely used in hospitals and
sports clinics for the treatment of muscular injuries and for the re-education of
paralysed muscles, to prevent atrophy in affected muscles and improving muscle tone
and blood circulation.
