Scienze Cliniche e Medicina Traslazionale, Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata, Roma, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Recent studies indicate that whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) is an effective and time-efficient treatment for chronic lower back pain (CLBP).
- A non-randomized controlled study involved 40 patients divided into two groups: one receiving only WB-EMS and the other receiving WB-EMS along with passive stretching (Well Back System).
- Results showed that both treatments improved pain and disability scores, but the combination of WB-EMS and stretching led to significantly greater improvements in pain levels, disability, and flexibility.

Int J Sports Med
October 2020
School of Sports and Exercise Sciences, Telematic University San Raffaele Rome Srl, Roma, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- This study examined the combined effects of Whole-Body Electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) and a hypocaloric diet on features of metabolic syndrome in sedentary middle-aged individuals over 26 weeks.
- Both the WB-EMS group and the diet-only group lost about 10% of body weight, but the WB-EMS group gained lean mass while the diet group lost it.
- Participants using WB-EMS showed significantly better improvements in insulin sensitivity, lipid profiles, and systolic blood pressure, suggesting that this method may be more beneficial for managing metabolic syndrome than diet alone.
