1.8. Principle of Operation
The Circulator (Nerve & Muscle Stimulator) works on the two principles i.e. TENS
(Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation)
TENS is a method of electrical stimulation which
primarily aims to provide a degree of
symptomatic pain relief by exciting sensory
nerves and thereby stimulating either the pain
gate mechanism and/or the opioid system. The
type of stimulation delivered by the TENS unit aims
to excite (stimulate) the sensory nerves, and by
doing so, activate specific natural pain relief
mechanisms. The unit sends light electrical pulses
into the body through the skin via Foot pads and
electrode patches which are placed over peripheral nerves. Then Circulator (Nerve
& Muscle Stimulator). Works by sending high-frequency electrical signals that are
both continuous and mild to block out the pain signals being delivered to the brain.
The Circulator (Nerve & Muscle Stimulator) device was designed with specific pulse
frequency and pulse length that are suitable for its intended use. Low frequency
bursts of mild electrotherapy also help activate the natural pain control response,
releasing beta endorphins to ease pain felt by the patient.
EMS is a protocol that elicits a muscle contraction
using electrical impulses that directly stimulate
motor neurons. This stimulation creates muscle
contractions that can be quick and frequent, fast
with long pauses, or contractions that are held for
several (uncomfortable) seconds or minutes at a
time. Normally, it is your body that fires your
muscles by sending electrical impulses from brain
through central nervous system (CNS). But an
EMS device allows to engage in deep, intense, and
complete muscular contractions without actually activating (or stressing) CNS.
Circulator (Nerve & Muscle Stimulator) helps in expanding and contracting the
muscles through which there is an increase in blood circulation and also strength-
ening of muscles.
