Medical Evidence in support of Electro-Muscle Stimulators

Here are links to seven articles which present medical evidence in support of the use of EMS devices. Because each article is a fairly complex scientific document, there is a little synopsis of each article underneath each link.

This article demonstrates how clinical grade EMS devices like the Globus Premium 200 can increase muscle recovery by about 20% after cruciate ligament rebuild. In addition subjects were able to train harder.
