What is electrical stimulation for?

Electrical stimulation is used to activate nerves and muscles in order to improve muscle strength, reduce pain, promote muscle recovery, and help with muscle rehabilitation. It is often used in physical therapy, sports training, and medical treatment for conditions like muscle weakness, paralysis, and pain.
