Is there any risk for a pacemaker patient and electrical muscle stimulation by a chiropractor?
Yes there absolutely is. To put it in it's most basic terms, the heart has electricity running through it. When you get an EKG at the cardiologists office, those lines are measures of the electrical activity of the heart. The pacemaker fires an electrical impulse when it detects that heart did not fire an electrical impulse on its own. By adding electricity via electrical muscle stimulation, you will run the very high risk of confusing the pacemaker. Just don't do it.
Where are the cells that make up the pacemaker?
Those cells are nerve cells, the brain sends electrical pulses down and the electricity causes the heart to beat.
