ONE OF THE INCLUSIONS THAT MAKES OUR SERVICES SUPERCHARGED!!
Posted • Direct current stimulation has been around for decades, and TENS units are a dime a dozen, so what makes the Neubie so special?
First, it's important to note the distinction between AC electricity like in a TENS unit and DC. In its most simplest sense, alternating current stimulation is not going to have even a fraction of the impact on neuromuscular re-education that DC current does. When turning a TENS unit up to a high enough level to challenge the neuromuscular system, we find that the AC causes co-contractions and shortening / stiffening of the muscle which inhibits range of motion. Direct current easily accommodates eccentric movement, allowing us to lengthen and strengthen and to do it under significant neurological load for a profound re-education effect. Plus, the nervous system is a direct current electrical system!
Let's face it - anything powered by a couple AA batteries is not going to change your life.
Now that we've established that DC is far superior and you've thrown away your TENS unit, why is the Neubie the gold standard for direct current stimulation?
Decades ago, the Russians use direct current stimulation on their athletes, but the technology was crude and it left their athletes with extreme blisters and burns. Today, "russian stim" units are actually AC powered, not DC.
Other direct current devices exist on the market, but the frequency range is limited. The closest competitor to the Neubie requires that you buy three machines to get the same frequency ranges as the Neubie, and even that machine only has half the electrodes as ours!
Enter the Neubie, coming in at a fraction of the cost with more versatility than the competition. We've engineered a secondary waveform that allows us to send the stim through the layers of dermis and adipose tissue, so the discomfort of Russian stim is eliminated. What's left is real, powerful neuromuscular re-education that's given us tens of thousands of success stories around the world.
