MUSCLE STIMULATOR

TESMED IS THE MUSCLE STIMULATOR

For 20 years, it has been the undisputed leader thanks to the best quality/price ratio, and for 15 years it has been present in the best pharmacies in Italy, France, and Spain:

  • More than 1,000,000 muscle stimulators sold
  • More than 5,000,000 electrode packs sold

with regular customers in Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Australia, and the United States, and exclusive patents, including the waims-system sequential wave system.

SCIENTIFICALLY TESTED EFFECTIVENESS

Ref. ISPE/2005

To test the effectiveness of Tesmed, 40 people used the Tesmed muscle stimulator every day for 4 weeks.

At the beginning and end of the trial, specific instrumental measurements were carried out by the Ispe Institute in Milan, highlighting the following results:

THIGH AREA

Elasticity:

In the area treated with the Tesmed muscle stimulator, the following occurred:

  • A highly significant decrease (p<0.001) in maximum skin extensibility (R0 parameter), by 34%;
  • A highly significant increase (p<0.001) in biological elasticity (R2 parameter) by 14.9%.

Microcirculation:

In the area treated with the Tesmed muscle stimulator, the following occurred:

  • A significant increase (p=0.01) in flowmetry values, by 37.3%.

GLUTEAL AREA

Elasticity:

In the area treated with the Tesmed muscle stimulator, the following occurred:

  • A highly significant decrease (p<0.001) in maximum skin extensibility (R0 parameter), by 24.5%;
  • A highly significant increase (p<0.001) in biological elasticity (R2 parameter), by 21.8%.

    Microcirculation:

    In the area treated with the Tesmed muscle stimulator, the following occurred:

    • A statistically significant increase (p<0.05) in flowmetry values, by 17.6%.

    SUBJECTIVE EVALUATION

    The smoothing effect was judged positively (fairly effective and very effective) by 68% of the subjects. The majority of participants (78%) found the product to be effective in firming (from fairly to very effective).

    52.5% of the volunteers reported that the treatment is effective in lifting the buttocks and has a draining effect (from fairly to very effective).

    In the past, electrostimulation was used almost exclusively as a treatment for conditions related to muscle strength loss: the effect was mainly stabilizing the muscle tissue, but also improving muscle strength, and it was inevitable that electrostimulation became fundamentally important in athletic performance training. It is still used today as a very effective method to treat muscle atrophy and injuries, prevent injuries, and improve athletic performance. Essentially, a muscle stimulator, using a small amount of generated energy, mimics the action from the central nervous system, forcing the muscles to contract, and by adjusting the frequency, duration, and intensity of the impulse, it offers many possibilities, stimulating fibers that would otherwise be impossible to engage.

    Physiotherapists, athletes, and trainers have been using electrostimulation for many years as an effective tool for muscle development, an effectiveness clearly demonstrated in scientific research. Electrostimulation is even more effective when combined with conventional training methods: using electrostimulation, we can increase the load and engage more muscle fibers than with conventional training alone.

    The main advantage of electrostimulation is the amount of time saved: we can perform intense muscle training in the comfort of our home and work out our muscles intensely in less time. A muscle stimulator like Tesmed can be used for various purposes: to treat musculoskeletal pain and injuries, produce a relaxing effect, develop strength and build muscle mass, work on specific muscles, improve speed and endurance, adapting the current to the specific needs of the individual athlete, allowing muscle fibers to work when desired, and also improving explosive strength by using specific programs, without the risk of injury. Even when suffering from an injury, the device can be used at home to work on other muscles. These results depend on the type of device, the generated current, intensity, frequency, program, pulse length, and rest period between contractions. There are also different stimulation devices for aesthetic use, to improve physical appearance, for beauty and cellulite treatment, using lipolysis and improving local circulation, increasing muscle tone with programs specifically designed for this purpose. Some of our muscle stimulators incorporate all these uses, so why not buy one that serves all these purposes? Using electrostimulation, we provide an electrical impulse to the tissue, and the motor neurons cause the muscle to contract: it is the neuron that generates the contraction. Normally, our brain generates an electrical impulse that, once transmitted to the motor neuron, generates the contraction. The difference between electrostimulation and our brain is that in the first case, the muscle stimulator generates the impulse, while in the second, it is the brain, but in both cases, the motor neuron transmits the impulse to the muscle.
