Electrotherapy gloves and socks are innovative tools designed to deliver targeted electrical stimulation to the hands and feet, aiding in pain relief and promoting circulation. These garments are embedded with conductive fibers, such as silver thread, which facilitate the transmission of electrical impulses from TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) or EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) devices. By wearing these gloves or socks during electrotherapy sessions, users can experience a more uniform and comfortable distribution of stimulation across the entire hand or foot, making them particularly beneficial for individuals dealing with arthritis, neuropathy, or other conditions that cause discomfort in the extremities.
Incorporating electrotherapy into your routine can be especially advantageous for foot-related issues. Electrotherapy socks provide relief by stimulating nerves and muscles in the feet, reducing pain, and enhancing blood flow. This increased circulation can accelerate healing processes and alleviate symptoms associated with chronic foot pain or diabetic neuropathy. Regular use of electrotherapy for feet may also improve muscle strength and reduce swelling, contributing to overall foot health. When combined with a compatible TENS or EMS unit, these socks offer a convenient and non-invasive method to manage foot discomfort and improve quality of life.
