Electrical Muscle Stimulation in Peripheral Nerve Injuries
|
|
|
|
As tends to happen, I had a patient that made me want to research and discuss the topic if whether electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) was of value in patients with peripheral nerve injuries, such as brachial plexus lesions. My patient was brought to see me from returning clients. The dog was a rescued border collie cross that appeared to have
had a previous brachial plexus injury. While she was quite functional, her affected leg had significantly less muscle bulk, her carpus was restricted into flexion and pronation, her foot was flatter, and the whole of the leg appeared to be shorter in length. She had been this way since she had been adopted just a year earlier. The notes from the veterinarian acknowledged the same thought as to the presumed cause for the current clinical picture. In the end, I came up with a management plan for the owners, because she is so functional, and that is what was most practical seeing as these clients live over 12 hours away!! However, when I was looking at the dog, the thought popped up into my head about EMS, and whether or not it would have any impact (now) or whether it might have in the acute stage. So, that’s what the rest of this blog is about!! Keep reading to learn more...

Have You Checked it Out?
|
|
|
For over a year, I worked with Physiotec (an online exercise platform) to create a exercise prescription platform for canine rehab practitioners. And this is it!
I've put hundreds of exercises together onto this handy platform. You can find the exercises, print off a handout, send them a link to the VIDEOS of the exercises.
There's so much: Massage, owner-friendly joint therapies, exercises, advisement, etc, etc!
NOW... be aware that this platform is run by / owned by Physiotec (and they charge separately for it's use)... and the support for the website is via physiotec as well. The MAIN GLITCH I am finding now... is that when you e-mail or call tech-support you will NEED to LET THEM KNOW that your question
pertains to FOURLEGEXERCISE! (Otherwise, it's a bit of a schmozzle to get sorted, because they direct you to the Physiotec website vs FourLegExercise website!!!) Check it out and LET ME KNOW (what you think, your experiences, etc... so that I can report back if there are issues!)
I hope you find it useful! Go there... Check it out!!!

Have a great week everyone! Until next time... Cheers! Laurie
