EMS training: What conclusions have scientific studies come to?

There’s no doubt about it: New training methods and technologies are understandably met with a healthy level of scepticism when it comes to their effectiveness – after all, conventional methods have been developed over several decades, examined in multiple studies and tested out in real life by millions of people.

However, on the other hand, this scepticism also means that the scientific community quickly focuses on new topics and examines them intensively. In recent years, many specialists from the medical field and from the field of sports science have studied the EMS trend and its effectiveness intensively. We collated the most important findings from these studies below. Important to know: The EMS trend is very new, but the technology behind EMS has been used for decades.

Latest Study Results: With Whole-Body EMS against Cancer

Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander University (FAU) Erlangen-Nuremberg have discovered whole-body EMS as a training method that is said to help against cancer. They discovered that the myokines, which are produced by stimulation in the muscles, fight the tumor cells of seriously ill cancer patients.

Important note

New clinical studies on the topic of EMS training and electrical stimulation are constantly being performed. Our overview of the studies on electrical stimulation in general and full-body EMS specifically makes no claim to completeness. The studies are also aimed exclusively at doctors, physiotherapists and other groups of professionals that are knowledgeable on the topic of electrical stimulation. We have only provided a small selection for you to read. Furthermore, we cannot and are not permitted to make any claims regarding the medical and physiological effectiveness of the methods or make any promises of healing. Our aim is to make people aware of EMS as a technology that has already been examined intensively by many experts around the world and whose effectiveness has been proved through multiple scientific studies. myostyle is not a medical device.
