Muscle stimulation technologies provide an additional therapeutic pathway, particularly for patients unable to perform sufficient voluntary resistance training. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and high-intensity focused electromagnetic modalities generate supramaximal contractions capable of recruiting deep motor units and inducing hypertrophic signalling.

These technologies are not replacements for exercise but valuable adjuncts in mobility-limited populations, post-surgical recovery or severe deconditioning.

In the March issue of the Aesthetics Journal, aesthetic practitioner Dr Nestor Demosthenous and nurse prescriber Amanda Demosthenous discuss the use of devices to treat muscle loss.
