Electric Muscle Stimulator in Sports

Many athletes, trainers and sports teams are constantly praising the use of an electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) in helping improve athletic performance. We have heard so much about these miracle tools over the past few years that we at the Sport Network (Sportnet) decided to look into this topic even more. Our journalists consulted with a wide array of physical therapists, doctors, coaches and athletes to get the inside scoop on electric muscle stimulators in relation to sports. Here is what we found out.

About Us

Pain Relief

The first major use of an EMS machine in sports medicine is to use it as a tool to reduce pain.

One of our journalists met with a doctor specializes in sports injury.

He explained how when injured, your body ends a signal through your nerves to your brain that causes you to feel and acknowledge the pain.


When using EMS, these pain signals can be blocked so that your brain never receives the message.

This makes you feel comfortable and relaxed.

This is very beneficial for athletes who are trying to continue playing a game after being injured. A quick EMS session and they will be relaxed and ready to play!

Increased Performance

We also interviewed a local athletic trainer who encourages the use of a muscle stimulator while working out. EMS can activate muscle fibers and various muscle groups all at the same time which results in much stronger contractions of your muscles. In fact, with an EMS, your muscles are contracting more than they could with weights and exercise alone. This, of course, means they will get stronger with very little effort from the athlete- the EMS is doing all the work! So mark that down as one more benefit this great tool has to an athlete.

Muscle Rehabilitation

The most significant use that we found for electric muscle stimulators in sports applications was to help athletes recover from injury.Professional athletes are constantly being pushed to the limit and sometimes this causes excess strain on muscles and tendons.


Professional athletes often need to take time off from their busy workout schedule in order to recover fully.An EMS will help activate the unused muscles, keeping them in shape and ready for action once the athlete is ready to go again.


So, as you can see, we have confirmed through various sources that using an EMS in professional sports is a fantastic idea. You will feel better, get stronger and keep your muscles in shape when you add this tool into your routine.
