In the fields of postoperative rehabilitation and post-injury recovery of athletes, muscle atrophy has always been a difficult problem plaguing patients and rehabilitation professionals. Traditional rehabilitation methods often require patients to undergo functional training for a long time, and the effects vary from person to person. In recent years, the emergence of TENS EMS massage devices has brought new hope for solving this problem. This massage device, which combines transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) technologies, is gradually becoming a "rehabilitation wonder" for postoperative patients and athletes.
The TENS technology stimulates the nerve fibers on the skin surface with low-frequency electrical pulses, changing the way pain signals are transmitted, thereby achieving the effect of pain relief. It can trigger the release of endogenous substances such as endorphins and reduce the arrival of pain signals in the brain. For postoperative patients, TENS can effectively relieve the pain caused by surgery, reduce physical discomfort, and enable patients to start rehabilitation training earlier. The EMS technology, on the other hand, uses electrical pulses to directly stimulate muscle fibers, simulating natural nerve impulses and promoting muscle contraction and relaxation. This kind of stimulation helps to enhance muscle strength, improve muscle shape and promote recovery. The use of EMS during postoperative bed rest can reduce muscle loss and prevent the occurrence of muscle atrophy.
In addition to postoperative patients, athletes also benefit from the TENS and EMS massage device during the recovery process after injury. Athletes are bound to get injured during training and competitions. Muscle atrophy after injury is a common problem. Traditional rehabilitation methods often require athletes to suspend training for long periods of rest and rehabilitation treatment. This not only affects the athletes' training plans but may also lead to a decline in their competitive form. The TENS+EMS massage device enables athletes to start rehabilitation training early after an injury. It relieves pain through TENS and stimulates muscles with EMS, promoting muscle recovery. For instance, an athlete with hip and labrum injuries who used the TENS+EMS massager and combined it with conservative treatment achieved twice the result with half the effort in rehabilitation. During the postoperative bed rest period, muscle loss was also reduced.
From a market perspective, TENS EMS massage machine are gradually becoming the new favorite among Home massage equipment. With the improvement of people's health awareness, more and more people have begun to pay attention to postoperative rehabilitation and the prevention and treatment of sports injuries. The TENS EMS massage device has been favored by a large number of consumers for its convenience and efficiency. Some portable basic TENS+EMS massage devices, priced between $30 - $100, support the basic TENS mode and are suitable for daily relief of shoulder and neck pain. The price of the multi-functional advanced model ranges from $140 - $500. It has added the EMS mode and is equipped with intelligent program adjustment, which can meet the needs of postoperative rehabilitation.
However, it should be noted that the TENS+EMS massage device is not suitable for everyone. Pregnant women, patients with heart disease, epilepsy and others must consult the advice of a doctor or professional before use. In addition, when choosing TENS+EMS massage devices, consumers should also verify the medical device number and check whether the product has Class II medical device certification. At the same time, one should choose the appropriate mode based on their own needs. Patients with sports injuries should select the TENS+EMS dual mode, while those undergoing neurorehabilitation need devices with electromyography feedback function. The electrode sheet is also a key factor. The service life of the silicone electrode is over 200 times, and inferior Products are prone to cause skin allergies.
The TENS+EMS massage device has demonstrated great potential in postoperative rehabilitation and the recovery of athletes after injuries. By combining TENS and EMS technologies, it provides patients and athletes with a safe and effective rehabilitation method, which is expected to shorten the recovery period of muscle atrophy. With the continuous development of technology and the expansion of the market, it is believed that TENS+EMS massage devices will play a more important role in the field of rehabilitation and safeguard the health of more people.
