Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a clinically proven treatment modality for the strengthening of paralysed muscles. Our expert staff at Physio.co.uk are specifically trained in safe and effective delivery of this valuable treatment modality.

Following detailed physical assessment, our physiotherapists will be able to determine if FES is appropriate for you, which unit is the most helpful and arrange a trial of the equipment. At Physio.co.uk, we offer hire of the FES unit so that you can practice applying the electrodes at home and wearing it on a daily basis as part of your normal routine.

If an effective muscle contraction is achieved and it improves your ability to walk or move your limb, FES could be a long-term treatment option to improve your overall quality of life.

At Physio.co.uk, we offer assistance with the purchase of a FES unit and a follow-up review service to objectively measure the improvement in your walking pattern or reach. Your physiotherapist will re-assess the distance, speed and quality of your walking after wearing the FES in order to effectively measure the level of your improvement.
