Re: Using Electrical Muscular Stimulation (EMS) for CVA patient

Hey every body,
In fact I understand physiologically how inhibition could be possible for the spastic muscles by applying EMS or other stimulatory techniques on the antagonist( the non-spastic group) by reciprocal inhibition. But I don't get how the reverse could be possible. I mean physiologically what happened when you apply specific type of EMS on the spastic muscle to end with relaxation.
many thanks....
