As the electrical impulses reach the muscles, they can cause contractions. These muscles contractions may feel like a mild pulling, twitching or pulsing sensation. As your body accommodates this muscle excitation, the intensity of your treatment may be slightly increased for maximum effect during the course of your 5- to 10-minute treatment.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Electrical Muscle Stimulation in San Jose, CA Activate Healing.
