What is an Electronic Muscle Stimulator?
An electronic muscle stimulator is a medical device which is used to treat various muscle conditions. Some versions of the device are designed for home use, and claim that they will promote weight loss, although this has not been scientifically proved. An electronic muscle stimulator uses electrical signals to tense and release muscles, through the employment of small electrodes on either side of the muscle area. An electronic muscle stimulator can improve muscle tone, but will not create muscles where none existed before, and certainly will not result in “rock hard abs,” as many manufacturers would have consumers believe.
