2. Electrical muscle stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_muscle_stimulation

   Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), also known as neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) or electromyostimulation, is the elicitation of muscle contraction ...

3. Microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcurrent_electrical...

   A microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator or MENS (also microamperage electrical neuromuscular stimulator) is a device used to send weak electrical signals into the body. Such devices apply extremely small microamp [uA] electrical currents (less than 1 milliampere [mA]) to the tissues using electrodes placed on the skin.

6. Functional electrical stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_electrical...

   It was not until 1967 that the term functional electrical stimulation was coined by Moe and Post, [24] and used in a patent entitled, "Electrical stimulation of muscle deprived of nervous control with a view of providing muscular contraction and producing a functionally useful moment". [25] Offner's patent described a system used to treat foot ...

7. Lateral electrical surface stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_electrical_surface...

   Lateral electrical surface stimulation is a neuromuscular stimulation treatment for idiopathic scoliosis. It is also known as the LESS treatment, and was invented by Dr. Jens Axelgaard in 1976. [1] It is a non-invasive scoliosis treatment that utilizes electrical muscle stimulation, which is also known as neurostimulation or neuromuscular ...
