THE EVOLUTION OF THE SUPER-SUIT
NOT YOUR FATHER ’ S EMS
BY MICAELA MYERS
SUPER-SUIT SPOTLIGHT
While fitness trends come and go , true revolutions are true and rare . As technology maneuvers its way into the fitness and wellness industry , it ’ s no surprise that technology is now revolutionizing our workouts to make them three times more effective and reduces injury risks . The Nuzuna ’ s SUPER- SUIT revolution owes its start to Electro Muscle Stimulation , or EMS . EMS uses low to mid-range frequency impulses to activate muscles directly through the skin . Enabling nearly 90 % of the muscle fibers to contract simultaneously throughout the entire body without needing the brain to send motor signals . That ’ s one of the many reasons why doctors , physical therapists , and chiropractors have been using EMS to train even paralyzed people who have a connection problem between the brain and certain body parts .
The roots of EMS go back centuries . “ If you look at the history of the interaction of electro-stimulation and humans , you ’ ll find it goes back almost 2,000-3,000 years with the Greeks and Egyptians ,” says Nuzuna Chairman and Medical Director Dr . Stephen Shapiro . For example , the Egyptians would stand in water near an electric eel to aid sore feet and would use small electric catfish to generate 300-400 volts of electric shock to treat arthritis pain .
In the late 1700s , Italian physicist Luigi Galvani performed bioelectricity on frogs . He discovered that the passing of electrical current through the spinal cord of a frog had resulted in a muscle contraction . He found out the nervous system had an essential electrical component the human being generated , which permitted them to control their motor actions and it was possible to obtain this movement
