Effects of Treadmill Walking with Calf Electrical Muscle Stimulation on Lower Extremity Muscle Thickness and Muscle Activation in Healthy Young Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the effects of treadmill walking with electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) on the muscle thickness and activation of the lower extremities.EMS has been widely used in rehabilitation settings to improve muscle function.However, its impact, when applied during gait training, remains unclear.
