The electro muscle stimulator (EMS) uses electrical pulses to stimulate facial muscles and cause them to contract, tightening and toning the muscles. During treatment, the client relaxes while the passive exercise occurs. For best results, treatments are usually needed 2-3 times per week for 4-6 weeks initially and then monthly maintenance sessions. The EMS stimulates motor nerves directly, causing muscle contraction and increased circulation, improving muscle tone and skin appearance. Precautions must be taken to ensure client safety and comfort during the treatment.

It is a direct current named after inventor Dr.L. Galvani. 2. Its direction of polarity is constant and passing continuously in one direction only, so termed as constant direct current. 3. Because of its unidirectional property, when applied to a muscle tend to contract and remain in that position till it is brought to zero, which seems to be very painful. GALVANIC CURRENT
Electric stimulation works by mimicking the natural way by which the body exercises its muscles. The electrodes attached to the skin deliver impulses that make the muscles contract. It is beneficial in increasing the patient's range of motion and improves the circulation of the body.

Are you want to know about the PEMF machine, Which stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field machine? What is a pulsed electromagnetic field machine, and how does it work on our bodies? How does it improves sleep patterns and contribute to improved sleep quality? Can pulsed electromagnetic field therapy be easily added to our daily routines? Can Pulsed electromagnetic field machines provide a natural, non-invasive solution for those seeking stress reduction and relaxation?
A Pulsed Electromagnetic Field machine is a device that generates pulsating electromagnetic fields. These pulsating fields produce low-frequency, pulsed electromagnetic waves that mimic the natural electromagnetic frequencies in the human body. This device typically consists of a control unit and an applicator that delivers electromagnetic pulses to specific body areas. When these waves penetrate our body, they create tiny electrical currents at the cellular level. These currents help restore balance to our cells, promoting optimal function. The Pulsed electromagnetic field machine induces muscular relaxation, reduces tension, and stimulates the production of endorphins, our body’s natural painkillers and mood elevators. It also regulates melatonin levels, improving sleep patterns.
BENEFITS OF LOW-FIELD MAGNETIC STIMULATION (LFMS):
STRESS REDUCTION:
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy reduces stress by modulating stress hormones such as cortisol, Which plays a role in our body’s stress response. Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy can significantly reduce stress, helping individuals achieve a greater sense of calm and overall well-being.
MUSCULAR RELAXATION:
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy unlocks the gateway to muscular relaxation. The pulses coax your muscles into a state of tranquillity by triggering the release of endorphins, natural painkillers, and mood enhancers.
IMPROVES SLEEP QUALITY:
Low-field magnetic stimulation (LFMS) therapy reduces stress. Stress is the leading cause of bad-quality sleep. Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy reduces stress which directly improves the quality of sleep. Sleeping well lets you do your daily base work and tasks more effectively.
PAIN REDUCTION:
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy unlocks relief from discomfort. The low-frequency waves stimulate the production of endorphins, your body’s natural warriors against pain. Gradually, a sense of comfort occurs, and you rediscover the joy of living pain-free.
CAN LOW-FIELD MAGNETIC STIMULATION (LFMS) HELP WITH SLEEP?
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy promotes relaxation, reduces stress, and enhances overall wellness, creating an optimal environment for restful sleep.
DID NASA USE PEMF?
NASA’s interesting PEMF stems from its potential benefits for astronauts during space missions. Pulse magnetotherapy has been explored for astronauts who prolonged space travel.
CONCLUSION:
In conclusion, PEMF machines benefit relaxation, stress reduction, and well-being.

2. The faradic treatment or
electro muscle stimulator
(EMS) uses the application
of electrical pulses to the
face to stimulate the
muscles to contract,
resulting in a tightening and
toning effect.
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
3. During the treatment the client does not have to participate, they
simply relax; therefore, the treatment is classified as passive
exercise.
For most people this is a dream come true, however you must
reinforce to the client that they will need to attend for
treatments on a regular basis (usually 2-3 times per week for 4-6
weeks, a maintenance treatment will then be required once a
month).
In addition, the client should be advised about an appropriate skin
care routine and facial exercise programme to complete at home.
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
4. How does the treatment work?
Muscles comprise of bundles of muscle fibres and there are
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
many nerves that supply each muscle fibre.
These nerves create the movement in the muscle.
When the nerves are stimulated they cause the muscle fibres
to shorten, therefore the muscle contracts and causes
movement to occur. The nerves that create this movement
are called motor nerves.
Normally a muscle would contract in response to an impulse
from the brain received via a sensory nerve, a message would
then be sent to the motor nerve, which would cause the
muscle to contract.
Stimulation by a faradic current activates the motor nerve
directly to produce a contraction; basically it takes a short
cut.

7. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Sensations experienced
When the current is initially applied, the
client will firstly feel a tingling sensation
as the sensory nerves are stimulated. As
the current intensity is increased the
motor nerves will be stimulated, the client
will now feel the muscles contracting.
8. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
The faradic machine
A EMS unit produces an interrupted direct
current, which is used to stimulate muscle
contraction. The unit produces a low
frequency, direct current of between 10 and
120 Hz. The facial machine is much less
complicated than a body machine and has only
a few controls. It will have an:
On/Off switch, which controls the current
flow, usually a light will indicate if the current
is flowing.
Intensity control, which allows you to treat
each client and muscle to the required level.
Outlet for the facial electrode wire to be
connected.
Some machines may also have a surge control.
Facial electrode
9. The treatment is applied via facial electrodes that are
made from electrically conductive carbon impregnated
plastic. The treatment can be applied via three different
types of electrodes:
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Facial electrodes
A hand held facial electrode, is individually placed over a
group of muscles or over a specific nerve. The therapist
will apply to stimulate the muscles 6-8 times working
around the face 2-3 times.
A facial mask may be used to stimulate all the facial
muscles simultaneously. This does have an advantage of
being speedier; however, some clients may feel
claustrophobic with this method.
Disc electrodes may be stuck to the skin to stimulate the
motor points of the muscles simultaneously. This is a
more up to date, speedier method.
10. The uses of the faradic treatment

11. Restrictions to a faradic treatment
In addition to the general contra-indications, the following
will restrict treatment in the area:
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Migraine
Excessive dental fillings or bridgework
Hypersensitive skin
A very nervous client
12. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Application techniques
You must always refer to manufacturer’s instructions as there
are different ways of applying a facial EMS treatment. When
applying using the hand held electrode it is preferable to treat
the same muscle groups on the opposite side of the face, one
after each other. This will ensure that you apply a similar
current intensity to similar muscle groups, which should result
in a more precise treatment. When applying the treatment it
is difficult to isolate individual muscles as many of the muscles
insert into each other. Therefore, appropriate facial nerves
are stimulated to produce a contraction.
14. Can you think of reasons for a poor
muscle contraction?
If there is a grease or make-up film on the client’s skin
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
The selected intensity is too low
Insufficient saline solution on the electrodes
Electrode pads are dirty
Incorrect positioning of the electrodes i.e. not over the motor points
Loose leads in the terminals
Poor contact between the electrode pads and the skin
15. Applying and adjusting to suit
individual clients needs
The current intensity will need to be varied depending on
the:
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Client’s needs
Client’s tolerance
Muscle tone
Area being stimulated
Remember that as you move to a new area you will have to
re-evaluate the intensity required. The intensity used will
depend on the manufacturer’s guidelines; however, you
should use the minimum intensity to produce a smooth and
comfortable contraction.
16. Effects of the faradic treatment
Increased circulation brings fresh oxygen and nutrients to the muscles and removes
waste products, thus improving the appearance and functioning of the muscles.
Muscular contraction improves the tone of the muscle.
Sensory nerve endings are initially stimulated producing a tingling sensation at the
Motor nerves are stimulated resulting in muscle contraction.
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
beginning of the treatment.
17. Blood supply increases therefore bringing fresh oxygen and nutrients to the area.
Waste products are more efficiently removed from the area.
Vasodilation of the blood vessels improves the colour of the skin under the pads.
Muscle contractions improve the lymphatic circulation in the area, which assists
with the removal of waste products.
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
18. Consider the precautions you should
take when performing a faradic
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
facial treatment.
19. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Precautions
Always perform skin sensitivity tests.
Remember that not all muscles are of equal strength, you can not
expect a smaller muscle group to be able to receive the same current
intensity as a larger group of muscles.
Always ensure that all intensity dials are at zero before applying.
Test the machine on yourself prior to application.
Only turn up the intensity during the surge period.
Do not move the electrode when the current is surging.
Do not over treat the muscles.
Always check the condition of the wires and electrode pads before
commencing.
Ensure the electrode pads are moistened with sufficient saline
solution, conductive product or water.
Therapist must ensure that they have a clear view of the treatment.
Do not stimulate muscles that do not require strengthening, for
example the corrugator muscle.
20. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Muscle fatigue
Muscle fatigue can be recognised as a muscle that fails to relax
completely, causing the muscle to go into spasm, which generally
results in some discomfort in the area.
This is due to over exercising the muscles using a EMS type unit.
The blood flow is restricted to the muscle fibres as the blood
can only flow through the capillaries when the muscle is relaxing.
The causes of muscle fatigue are lack of oxygen and nutrients to
the muscle and the accumulation of waste products, mainly lactic
acid.
If you continued to treat the client with a faradic unit it would
cause severe muscle fatigue and the muscle may fail to work as it
would become exhausted. It would also be very uncomfortable for
the client.
Stop treatment immediately and massage the muscle to remove
the waste products and lactic acid.
