microcurrent application accelerates reduction of muscle cell death after reloading atrophied muscle
Unloading-associated skeletal muscle atrophy results in muscle weakness, inflammation, membrane lysis, and necrosis upon reloading, and MENS application facilitated a decrease in this necrotic area.
What this means for you
When muscles have been inactive — after injury, illness, or long rest — reintroducing movement can trigger a wave of cellular damage. Microcurrent appears to help the body clear that damage faster, which may mean less soreness, quicker return of strength, and a smoother path back to normal activity.
The published research
Microcurrent electrical nerve stimulation facilitates regrowth of mouse soleus muscle.
