When electrical stimulation is used to help someone do something functional, we call it Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). FES is used to help people with paralysis caused by neurological disorders like spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke, cerebral palsy, and other conditions. It can also help people with muscle weakness after surgery like knee replacement.

The benefits of FES include:

  • Relaxing muscle spasms
  • Preventing muscle atrophy
  • Increasing local blood circulation
  • Maintaining or increasing range of motion
