Channel 1 Kanal 1
Preoperative muscle training in anticipation of dysfunction
Intention training in the case of co-ordination dysfunction following
peripheral palsy or other neurological disorders
Build-up of innervated muscle fibre following peripheral paralysis
Urinary or stool incontinence in the case of pelvic floor insufficiency
and innervated musculature
Scoliosis for the targeted stimulation of convex back musculature These are
highly specific applications which should only be performed following
consultation with a doctor or physiotherapist. The correct placement of the
electrodes is of particular importance here. The stimulation duration must
also be individually specified.
General rules are:
When beginning muscle stimulation therapy do not work longer than 15 minutes,
as this may lead to muscle ache and a deterioration in the complaint. Over a period
of 3 to 4 days the period can be gradually increased to up to 60 minutes.
