2. STIMULATION OF SENSORY NERVES
Electrical impulses can also excite sensory nerve fibres to obtain analgesic effects or pain relief.
Stimulating tactile sensory nerve fibres blocks pain being transmitted to the nervous system. Stimulating
another type of sensory fibre increases the production of endorphins and therefore reduces pain. With
pain relief programmes, electrostimulation can be used to treat acute or chronic localised pain and
muscle pain.
Caution: Do not use pain relief programmes for an extended period without medical advice.
BENEFITS OF ELECTROSTIMULATION
Electrostimulation is a very effective method for making muscles work:
• With a significant improvement in various muscular qualities
• With no cardiovascular or mental fatigue
• With limited stress exerted on joints and tendons. Electrostimulation thereby enables more muscular
work than voluntary activity.
For optimum results, Compex recommends supplementing your electrostimulation sessions with other
commitments, such as:
• Regular physical exercise
• A balanced and healthy diet
• A balanced lifestyle
