Are you struggling with chronic pain from an injury or illness? Electrical stimulation therapy is a proven, safe, and effective treatment used by physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and rehab specialists to relieve pain and aid rehabilitation.
The Pain-Free Truth About Electrical Stimulation Therapy
Electrical stimulation is a non-invasive treatment used to reduce pain and improve muscle function. While it may cause a mild “tingly” or “pins and needles” sensation during use, it should never be painful. Our highly trained physical therapists, chiropractors, and acupuncturists will adjust the intensity to fit your comfort level, ensuring you get the maximum benefit.
During treatment, you’ll relax while our therapist places self-adhesive electrodes on the skin around the target area. These electrodes are connected to a device that delivers a controlled electrical current to stimulate sensory and motor neurons.
How Can Electrical Stimulation Help?
Electrical stimulation therapy offers a range of benefits for pain management and rehabilitation, including:
- Reducing pain (acute and chronic)
- Improving circulation
- Preventing muscle atrophy (from prolonged immobility)
- Reducing muscle spasms
- Improving motor coordination

Is Electrical Stimulation Right for You?
