E-Stim Therapy in Arlington Heights

e-stim therapy on neckWhen you’re in pain, you’d try almost anything for relief. At O’Hara Family Chiropractic, we offer a solution that might sound like science fiction but is grounded in solid medical science. Electrical Stimulation therapy, or E-STIM, is Dr. Kevin O’Hara’s go-to treatment for patients suffering from acute pain and stubborn muscle issues.

How E-STIM Works Its Magic

E-STIM therapy is like a reset button for your muscles and nerves. By sending controlled electrical pulses to specific areas of your body, we can effectively reduce pain and promote healing. These pulses work in two ways: they fatigue overactive muscles, forcing them to relax, and they stimulate the production of endorphins, your body’s natural painkillers. The result? Quick relief that gets you back to living your life.

Breaking the Pain-Spasm Cycle

One of the most frustrating aspects of pain is how it can create a vicious cycle. Pain causes muscle tension, which leads to more pain, and so on. E-STIM therapy is Dr. O’Hara’s secret weapon for breaking this cycle. By relaxing tense muscles and resetting pain thresholds, we can interrupt this feedback loop and give your body a chance to heal.

At O’Hara Family Chiropractic, we believe in using every tool at our disposal to get you feeling better. E-STIM therapy often works best when combined with other treatments like chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, or ultrasound therapy.
