SURFACE ELECTROMYOGRAPHY

How Does sEMG Work?

Surface EMG is an instrumentation in which electrodes are placed on top of the surface skin to detect electrical activity of muscles. This allows the doctors to see how the nervous system is controlling the scanned surface muscles. Disturbance to the nerves can cause abnormal reading in your muscles. You will see your results during the scan and get an exact picture of your bodies nervous system balance. Barone Spinal Care utilizes the MyoVision 8000. It is known to have the most reproducible signal to date.

How Safe Is This Technology?

SEMG is safe and non-invasive. The electrodes are placed on the surface of the skin, not in the skin. No harmful radiation is emitted. It can be used on all people including children and pregnant females.
