Nowadays, back pain is one of the most common ailment among population, affecting both young and old people. If you’re struggling with back pain, you have to know that fortunately you can relieve back pain with EMS fitness — through targeted back training workout! EMS fitness is able to alleviate back pain, as it strengthens the deeper layers of the torso muscle group, difficult to activate through traditional workouts.

EMS TRAINING RESEARCH

A research conducted by Boeckh-Behrens and colleagues at the University of Bayreuth revealed that EMS training is highly effective at healing back pain. 49 people who were suffering from back pain participated and executed EMS training sessions for 5 weeks.

The amazing results of this EMS technology research highlighted the following:

• Frequency and intensity of back pain significantly decreased within the training period. 88.7% of participants observed decrease in back pain.
• They also felt an improvement in their mood, vitality and well-being.

Did you know that EMS training has its roots in the medical field and was originally used in recovery from injuries? In case of injury or operation, muscles’ volume and strength are decreased, but exercising with EMS machines provides optimal support to smoothly rebuild specific muscles or muscle groups. The main advantage is that all EMS exercises can be executed in both horizontal and standing position.

Another advantage of EMS training is that the workout doesn’t put pressure on your joints, as you don’t exercise with weights. Conventional workouts involve heavy weights lifting or high impact running or jumping. These are tough on your joints and bones and can cause strain and injury. Unlike traditional workouts, EMS workout doesn’t depend on weight lifting or high impact exercises. So, the risks of strain or injury are highly reduced! This means that your workout is just as intense, but with minimal stress upon your joints. This way, EMS fitness has become the ideal workout in case of injuries or operations, for older people and for those who have joint problems.

 

Did you know that muscular imbalance often causes recurring back pain? Moreover, it is usually caused by our lifestyle, precisely lack of movement — e.g. sitting at a desk for many hours. That’s how so many people suffer from muscular imbalance on the back, abdominal or pelvis areas. With EMS workout, you can target specific areas to strengthen weaker muscle groups and fix muscular imbalances.
