Muscle Stimulation (E-Stim)

Female with device on back An injury or illness can lead to muscular atrophy and make it hard for muscles to contract. Inducing movement in an affected muscle can assist in the recovery process. Chiropractic Muscle Stimulation (E-Stim) is a therapy that causes muscles to contract and may reduce your discomfort during rehabilitation. Dr. Fred Silveria offers E-Stim and other non-invasive treatments to encourage the healing process. Learn about the benefits of E-Stim today.

How Does Chiropractic Muscle Stimulation Work?

Chiropractic Muscle Stimulation or E-Stim is a specialized medical treatment that uses electric currents to induce muscle contraction. It is non-invasive and clients may lay down while undergoing the therapy. Patients do not experience pain from the therapy. In fact, many find a session an enjoyable experience.

The Benefits of E-Stim

You may benefit from including E-Stim as part of an individualized treatment program. As a non-invasive therapy, E-Stim has shown to be an effective treatment for many. A care plan including this therapy offers significant benefits like:

  • Improving blood flow to an area of injury, promoting the healing process in affected areas.
  • Increasing muscle tone and muscle strength in weakened muscles.
  • Strengthening the link between muscle movement and your brain, making it easier to move from easier exercises to more complex tasks.
  • Preventing or slowing muscle atrophy, or a decrease of muscle mass.
  • Encouraging relaxation, as the therapy releases tension in muscles, and encourages endorphin production.

Individuals who have chronic conditions, such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and athletes who are looking to enhance their performance can both benefit from E-Stim. Those with MS can experience a reduction in muscle tension and discomfort after a session, making movement easier. Athletes can use E-Stim to reduce swelling and soreness after a workout. It can also be used to decrease muscle stiffness as part of injury prevention. Speak with Dr. Silveria  today to explore your treatment options.

Start on the Path to Recovery

After undergoing an initial evaluation, E-Stim may be incorporated into an individualized treatment program to reduce pain and speed up recovery. Patients may pair E-Stim with massage therapy, chiropractic treatments, and other services at Silveria Chiropractic. Patients undergoing E-Stim may need multiple treatments depending on their condition and their individual response.

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "Don't normally write reviews but felt it was necessary in this case. Hurt my lower back and found Dr. Silveria online. Decided to give him a try and was VERY pleased with my visit! Dr. Silveria took the time to go over my x-rays in detail and explained in terms that were easily understandable. Adjustment went well and I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Silveria too all who suffer back pain. And I'm very glad I selected him as I now have a new chiropractor to visit when my back acts up!"

  • "It's been awhile since I've been here, because I have a condition that prevents me from chiropractic care at this time. However, the service has always been consistently awesome. They have these 2 amazing machines I wish I could own. You lay down on your stomach and certain parts of the table raise at different times. I don't know how it works so well, but it loosens things up, and provides some release and relief. Then when you get adjusted, you're always well primed, getting the most out of your visit.

    If price is a concern, talk to them. Dr S. is awesome about coming up with a payment plan and such. Very good group, and I highly recommend."

  • "Dr Silveris is a personal yet professional chiropractor. Before coming to his office I was terrified of chiropractors and skeptical of treatment. After my initial treatment I was sold! I don't visit him weekly as I don't need it, but do go about every month-and-a-half...or before taking a vacation so my body feels great and I can relax! I highly recommend trying his services!"
