EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) in Mesa, AZ
EMS therapy uses gentle electrical impulses, delivered through small pads placed on the skin, to relax tight muscles and support your body's healing process. It is one of the most requested add-ons to a chiropractic visit at our Mesa clinic.
What EMS therapy does
The gentle impulses cause targeted muscles to contract and release rhythmically, which helps reduce muscle spasms, ease pain, decrease inflammation, and encourage blood flow to the area. Most patients describe the sensation as a light tingling or fluttering that becomes quite comfortable within a minute or two.
Dr. Kenney commonly recommends EMS alongside adjustments, especially for patients recovering from injuries, dealing with persistent muscle tension, or working through a flare-up of an old problem.
What to expect during a session
Your provider places small adhesive pads over the muscles that need attention, then adjusts the intensity to a level that feels comfortable for you. You simply relax for the duration of the session. EMS is low-risk, non-invasive, and requires no downtime afterward.
