The Beurer EM59 has four basic functions:
- Pain relief (TENS)
- Muscle Stimulation (EMS)
- Thermal function
- Massage effect created with electrical signals
The device can improve general well-being, relieve pain, maintain fitness, relax, rehabilitate muscles and prevent fatigue. The effect of electrical stimulation devices is based on the generation and transmission of impulses from body parts with electrodes through the skin to nerve and muscle fibers
TENS stands for electrical stimulation of nerves through the skin. TENS is a clinically proven, effective, side-effect-free method that is approved for use in the treatment of pain.
The EMS method (muscle stimulation) is used e.g. as a supplement to traditional muscle training to improve the performance of muscle groups and shape the body.
The massage technique makes it possible with its program that resembles a real massage in feel and effect.
With the two separately adjustable channels of the digital EMS/TENS device, you can set the strength of the impulses independently of each other to suit the two body parts being treated. For example, you can stimulate both sides of the body or equally large tissue areas. Since the current strength of the channels can be set separately, you can treat two different body parts at the same time. This way you save time compared to consecutive individual treatments.
The device has 3 operating options:
- TENS/EMS + heat
- TENS
- Heat
The device has 64 pre-programmed programs, 6 customizable programs where you can adjust the pulse frequency and width as well as the duration of the program.
The device must not be used with a heart pacemaker, read the user manual before use.
