Any experience with therapeutic muscle machine

[1chrismarie]

:wave:Hi. a friend that suffers from fibro uses a type of physical therapy machine that stimulates the body's muscles without exercising, She said it was a great treatment for tight or sore muscles and also tones the body. Has anyone every used or heard of this type of machine treatment? She said it also felt like she had a massage when she would use the treatment. The only description I have is it uses various wires that are attached to body patches which cover different groups of muscles at a time. I hope I am making some sense here. Exercising is very difficult for me at this time and it sounRAB like a possible solution.

Was it a tens unit? I used one of those after the car accident that started a lot of my fm symptons. It did help to fight back the pain, but was a rather puny fighter for me at the time (before I'd put in enough time with the stupid ideas so the insurance would allow the MRI that showed all that stuff was stupid for the damage done). Every little bit helps, though, huh?
