Pulsed Galvanic Stimulation
(PGS) can be used to provide a cost efficient method to treat
and relieve muscle spasm. The PGS unit can be used at home or
work, and is useful in relieving muscle pain due to injury, stress,
poor posture, or nerve irritation.The unit is portable and can
be used in conjunction with physical therapy. If your symptoms
do not respond with initial conservative treatment, pulsed galvanic
stimulations may be very effective.
TENS units are also used as pain modulators. The TENS functions differently,
blocking pain from the pain receptors in the body.
Pain modulators may be useful in the treatment of:
• Chronic Pain
• Muscle Spasm
• Radiculopathy
• Sympathetic Mediated Pain
• Neuropathic pain
• Myofascial Pain
• Fibromyalgia
