Richmar EMG Pro

Richmar’s EMG Pro is a single-channel, portable electrotherapy device with EMG Biofeedback, EMG Triggered Stim, TENS and NMES. Each mode has preset and customizable programs, designed to help with various components of muscle rehabilitation -including pain management, muscle strengthening and training, muscle relaxation and re-education. A valuable rehabilitation tool that can be used across patient populations, from orthopedic and sports rehab, to treating patients with neuralgic impairment. This is an innovative and multifaceted rehab training device.

The EMG Pro offers two modes of operation: Patient Mode and Therapist Mode.

• In Patient Mode, a therapist can set prescribed programs for a patient to perform at home. Certain functions of the device are locked, so the patient can only access the prescribed treatment methods.
• In Therapist Mode, all treatment protocols are available to be used.

Evidence-Based Protocols:

This device was developed by top modality researchers with evidence-based preset protocols to guide and assist in treatment and offer versatile, comprehensive rehabilitation therapies. Improve neuromuscular control, decrease pain, increase function, and improve therapeutic effectiveness.

EMG:

• Enhance a patient’s therapeutic exercise and functional activities with real-time feedback on muscle performance.
• Facilitates increased muscle recruitment when treating weak, inhibited muscles.
• Inhibits muscle activation when treating overactive muscles.
• Creates a positive feedback look and improved neuromuscular control.
• Muscle Strength Grading Scale to help patients reach their therapeutic targets.

EMG Triggered Electrical Stimulation (ETS):

• EMG Triggered Stim offers the best of both worlds by providing immediate biofeedback on muscle performance with the added benefit of electrical stimulation.
• The electrical stimulation is activated by the patient reaching their threshold of voluntary contraction.
• If a patient can only go through a portion of the requested range of motion, the electrical stimulation can be set to assist them through the remainder of the motion.

NMES:

• Includes evidence-based preset protocols for muscle re-education, strength augmentation, and fast and slow twitch muscle training.
• Effectively stimulate weak, inhibited muscles to improve neuromuscular control and strength when added to a volitional training program.

TENS:

• Includes evidence-based preset protocols for pain management, including sensory and motor TENS, mixed frequency TENS, as well as protocols to prevent habituation.

• Biofeedback allows patients to see their muscle activation levels in real-time via a bar or line graph
