  • Increase blood circulation and lymphatic flow

  • Improving muscle function and control

Indications

Electrotherapy with Compex may be indicated in various situations including:

  • Muscle training and strengthening

  • Rehabilitation after muscle injuries or operations

  • Pain relief for muscular tension or muscle problems

  • Improving athletic performance and fitness

  • Support in the prevention of muscle atrophy (muscle breakdown)

  • Improving blood circulation and detoxifying the muscles

It is important to carry out electrotherapy with Compex under the guidance of a qualified therapist or trainer to ensure correct use and safety. The method can be used as part of a comprehensive training or rehabilitation plan depending on the patient's individual goals.

Treatment process

Compex electrotherapy is performed using a Compex device. The patient wears special electrode pads or electrodes on the muscle groups to be treated. The device generates electrical impulses that cause the muscles to contract. The intensity and frequency of the pulses can be adjusted depending on needs and treatment goals. During treatment, the patient often performs specific exercises or movements at the same time to optimize muscle activity.
