What is IMS? Is it the right treatment?

What is IMS? Is it the right treatment? Heard your relative or friend say that they benefited from IMS while at their physiotherapy treatment? Were you recommended to take up IMS treatment? But, you do not really know what is it or what is done, or who will do it?

Well, today we shall learn a little about IMS.

What is IMS?

IMS is an acronym for Intramuscular Stimulation. This is considered a well-known technique or a treatment. It was adapted from a traditional acupuncture process but it is not acupuncture. To explain it simply, it includes inserting the acupuncture needle into the tight muscle and evokes a muscle contraction that is supposed to follow with reflex action. Of course, there is a lot of science behind it, but let us skip that nitty-gritty sciency-stuff away.

This IMS is considered a versatile tool that needs to be done only by a specially trained physiotherapist in order to address a multitude of issues of an individual. Yes, it can be a little uncomfortable, but it surely brings great results. Especially, when used in a combination with a variety of other physiotherapy treatments. Your physiotherapist will make sure that the treatments are specifically customized for you and every unique symptom that you present.

IMS is regarded as one of the best treatments for every acute condition, even chronic ones. And, all you need is a detailed consultation with a qualified physiotherapist. It is essential for physiotherapists in order to determine a diagnosis as well as the appropriate plan of treatment.
