Electric muscle stimulation (EMS) uses small, controlled electrical pulses delivered through pads placed on the skin to make target muscles contract and release. It is not a TENS unit that merely masks pain—EMS re-educates muscles that have shut down after an injury, reduces muscle spasm, decreases swelling, and increases local blood flow. Wheat Chiropractic uses EMS to treat acute back and neck spasms, sports injuries, and post-surgical muscle weakness. A session lasts 10–15 minutes: you relax while the device works, feeling a gentle tingling and rhythmic muscle contractions. It is particularly effective for patients whose muscles guard an injured area, preventing the joint from healing. By retraining those muscles to fire properly, EMS helps adjustments hold longer and restores normal movement patterns faster than adjusting alone.
You feel a gentle tingling and rhythmic muscle contractions—most patients find it relaxing. The intensity is adjusted to your comfort, and St. Martins patients often read or rest during the 10–15 minute session.
EMS reduces muscle spasms and retrains muscles that have stopped firing properly after an injury. When combined with adjustments, St. Martins patients get longer-lasting relief because the supporting muscles are working correctly.
When performed as part of a chiropractic treatment plan, EMS is usually covered by major medical insurance. The office verifies your benefits before care begins, so St. Martins patients know their coverage.
Acute spasms often improve within 3–5 sessions; chronic conditions may need more. Your doctor includes EMS in your written care plan, and the short drive from St. Martins makes frequent visits practical.
