1.EMS is muscle training without weights.
EMS allows you to train your muscles without having to lug weights or go to an expensive gym. This lowers the mental threshold for getting started. Because EMS works without resistance, it is also used as training during rehabilitation after an injury. You'd better follow your sports doctor's advice in that case, though.
2.EMS is flexible and easy to use.
Doesn't matter whether you're sitting on the couch at home or at your desk at work, you can use EMS virtually anytime, anywhere*. Thanks to built-in programmes and easy-to-apply electrodes, you easily set up the device yourself. By the way, the treatment is also completely painless.
*There are some exceptions: EMS should not be used in the bath or shower, while driving a car or when operating heavy machinery.
3.EMS works in a very targeted and intense way.
With an EMS treatment, you can target your muscles very specifically, by sticking StimPads electrodes in the right place. This allows you to give deeper muscles an extra workout or target specific problem areas. EMS also works into the deepest fibres of your muscles, making a workout very intense and efficient.
4.EMS has many features.
For years, EMS has been a widely used and clinically proven treatment for all kinds of conditions. The most well-known application is building muscle tissue and exercising muscles, but EMS is also used to treat incontinence, in weight-loss programmes or for cosmetic purposes.
5.EMS relaxes your muscles
Although EMS is mainly used to build muscle tissue, you can also use the machine for a relaxing massage. It may sound strange, but you will soon notice the beneficial effect. Thanks to the gentle electrical impulses delivered by the device, endorphins are released in your body and these loosen the muscles and remove tension. Athletes often use it after competitions or big efforts for this reason.
