Clinical Electrophysiology

Clinical Electrophysiology in the context of Sports Physical Therapy involves using electrical assessments and treatments to understand and improve muscle function and nerve activity in athletes. This can include techniques like electromyography (EMG) to evaluate how well muscles respond to signals from the nervous system, and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to enhance muscle strength or recovery. These methods help therapists design individualized rehabilitation programs, monitor progress, and optimize athletic performance while ensuring safe recovery from injuries.
