RELIEVE YOUR MUSCLE TENSION WITH COMPEX ELECTROSTIMULATION
The holidays are approaching, and you want to use your break to relieve the stress of the year. Electrostimulation can help you! There are several programs dedicated to muscle relaxation. Did you know that an electrostimulator can offer you massage programs that will help release your muscle tension and combat occasional fatigue? Discover the different Compex massage programs!
HOW DO MUSCLE ELECTROSTIMULATION MASSAGE PROGRAMS WORK?
Compex massage programs work similarly to a manual massage. The stimulator substitutes for your brain and sends information to the motor nerve of your muscle to produce muscle twitches.
To perform the massage programs, you should be in a resting position, comfortably lying down, to best promote venous return. As for the intensity, you should achieve pronounced but comfortable muscle twitches. It's crucial not to trigger muscle contractions, which would counteract the desired benefits.
RELAXING MASSAGE PROGRAM
The Relaxing Massage program generates three effects on your muscles:
- Reduction of muscle tension
- Drainage of toxins responsible for excessive muscle tone
- Feeling of well-being and relaxation
You can use this program to combat uncomfortable muscle tension in the neck. Prolonged sitting, combined with repetitive upper limb movements (such as frequently occurs in front of a computer screen), often leads to uncomfortable or even painful tension in the neck muscles. Any other stress condition can also cause excessive muscle tension, often responsible for painful or bothersome sensations.
The deep effects produced by the Relaxing Massage program effectively combat such painful sensations, providing a particularly significant relaxing result.
Cycle duration: Use on neck muscles as soon as an occasional sensation of painful muscle tension occurs; repeat if necessary in case of particularly excessive muscle tension.
REGENERATING MASSAGE PROGRAM WITH MUSCLE ELECTROSTIMULATION
The multiple demands of life are often responsible for uncomfortable or even painful physical sensations. Circulatory slowing is often secondary to insufficient physical activity, frequently exacerbated by the professional need to maintain the same position for long hours (such as sitting).
While not serious, this simple ‘vascular slowdown’ is often the source of unpleasant sensations (for example: heaviness or weight often localized in the lower limbs but sometimes in another body region).
The Regenerating Massage program induces significant circulatory reactivation, allowing for increased tissue oxygenation and the elimination of unpleasant sensations resulting from insufficient physical activity.
Cycle duration: Use on calf muscles as soon as an occasional sensation of heaviness or weight occurs. Repeat if necessary in case of persistent discomfort.
Proven Effectiveness
Backed by clinical studies proving their effectiveness, Compex stimulators also belong to the category of Class II medical devices. They also meet the needs of the European Medical Standard 93/42 EEC.
