Transion Professional²

During the 19th and 20th centuries, scientists have studied and documented in more detail the electrical properties that would induce muscle contraction. It was discovered that electrical stimulation can induce long-term changes in muscle groups. The first to provide scientific evidence that current activates muscle work was Luigi Galvani in 1971. However, recent medical research has clarified the exact effects of electrical muscle stimulation on nerve and muscle cells and blood vessels. Transion technology causes muscle contraction as a result of inducing an electrical current. The induced muscle contraction differs from the usual muscle contraction caused by the central nervous system (e.g. muscle contraction resulting from lifting weights), and the nature and strength of this process depends on the parameters previously programmed into the device. Transion technology can do what the brain is not capable of. The brain stimulates many muscle fibers, but Transion technology can affect 100 of the % fibers (therefore, greater synchronization occurs in the fibers). In addition, unlike brain activity, Transion can also produce uniform and high-quality impulses to the working muscle groups, without causing cardiovascular dysfunction and fatigue in the body. This in turn also gives a better and safer result. The main means of performing muscle work is the induction of an electrical impulse, and as a result, the impulses move to the muscles through nerve fibers. The role of the impulse is to cause a contraction reaction in the muscles and increase mechanical activity. Each time the generation of an electrical impulse is repeated, the muscle contraction is also repeated. When muscles are stimulated with frequent impulses, the muscle fibers are in continuous motion and the stimulation does not end until a new electrical charge has been transmitted. Thus, the muscles are in constant work. This phenomenon is called tetanization, or repetitive stimulation, which occurs when repeated oscillations are added together. The quality and quantity of muscle work depends on the programmable parameters and intensity (the correct placement of the electrodes also plays a role). The intensity is measured in milliamperes, or mAmp, and is not pre-programmed, but it can be increased continuously during the use of the device. The number of muscle fibers that are involved depends on the intensity adjustment of the device. If the stimulation is applied at a higher intensity, then a larger number of muscle fibers are working at the same time. And conversely, if the intensity level is lower, the percentage of muscle fibers that are working is also correspondingly lower. In general, it is wise to start using the device at a lower intensity and gradually increase the intensity according to your needs.
