What
is Tone-a-Matic Electronic Muscle Stimulation (EMS)?
Tone-a-Matic
Electronic Muscle Stimulation
- Electronic Muscle Stimulation is an advanced technique used world
wide for toning, reshaping, and firming thighs, buttocks, and for maintaining muscle definition.
- Tone-A-Matic has been used for many
years by professional athletes, physiotherapists and chiropractors.
- Home Electronic Muscle Stimulation systems allow you
to supplement your regular workout program, without putting stress on your joints, lower
back or neck and shoulders.
- Electronic Muscle Stimulation machines are ideal for
today's hectic lifestyle. When time is limited and you can't get to the gym, you can hook
up to your Tone-A-Matic exerciser in the privacy of your home or office, while catching up
on paper work, talking on the phone, watching TV or surfing the net.
- Tone-A-Matic Electronic Muscle Stimulation systems are
great for physically disabled people to prevent muscle atrophy.
- Many of these EMS units include a TENS
(transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) to help relieve back, muscle, and other
chronic and acute pain problems.
The Tone-A-Matic system works by sending minute electrical impulse to the chosen muscle.
These impulses copy the message your brain would send to the muscle to make it contract
during normal exercise.Most units come with their own
carrying case and larger models have briefcases.
Tone-A-Matic Muscle Stimulation systems do not substitute for an overall cardio-vascular
workout. Use them at work, at the gym, or even while you are watching television at home.
All machines are very simple to use and come with full instructions and pad placement
charts.
INCREASE YOUR STRENGTH AND EXPLOSIVE POWER
For years Eastern European Olympic contenders have used electricity to build the
same rippling muscles that steroids promise. Now the practice has finally reached the
West. Tone-A-Matic muscle exercise is recommended for anyone participating in
bodybuilding, power lifting, martial arts, boxing, athletics or for people simply wishing
to achieve an athletic physique.
WHEN SPEED IS CRUCIAL
When the need for explosive power, quick reaction time and improved speed is fundamental
to a sport, Tone-A-Matic can provide the answer. Many of today's athletes,
particularly boxers, martial artists and sprinters all rely heavily on these qualities. Tone-A-Matic
Muscle Stimulation can aid in all of these factors since it enables the body to become
accustomed to short, sharp, and intense muscular contractions.
WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE A
TONE-A-MATIC UNIT?
All Tone-A-Matic units come equipped with T.E.N.S. -Transcutaneous Electronic
Nerve Stimulator or therapeutic massage frequency. This is very useful when
rehabilitation of an injury may occur. The small pads can be used for this frequency, and
also in hard to reach areas.
Tone-A-Matic/TENS - THERAPEUTIC USE
Tone-A-Matic/TENS is ideal for use in the treatment of muscular, tendon or ligament
injuries. Our systems are used by Osteopaths, Physiotherapists, Spinal Injury Specialists,
and by doctors working on the treatment of degenerative muscle disorders. Those with
re-occurring hamstring problems, sore knee, week ankles or strained elbows can
significantly benefit from the Tone-A-Matic procedure. Along with conventional
treatment and a good physiotherapist, Tone-A-Matic helps reduce rehabilitation time
by helping control swelling and strengthening weak muscles. Used in conjunction with the TENS
frequency, an athletes normal recovery time from injury can be shortened. Tone-A-Matic
can also be used to promote recovery after exercise. Using a unit at a low intensity
setting will cause the muscle to be flushed and help remove the toxins that build up after
a work-out. This prevention of damage means that the muscle recovers quicker and thus has
more time for growth!
EASILY INCORPORATED INTO YOUR WORKOUT ROUTINE
Tone-A-Matic Electronic Muscle Stimulation exercisers should be used in conjunction with a regular weight
training program. Tone-A-Matic is used on the muscles that are trained during that
same day, about 15-45 minutes after the workout. It can also be used before training (to
pre exhaust a muscle) and during training (to make exercise more intense). In sports not
requiring active participation in a weight lifting program, Tone-A-Matic can be
used on a muscle group every day or every 4 hours.
