NCT ID NCT06689618
First seen Feb 18, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This small pilot study looks at whether whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (WB-EMS) combined with exercise can improve how nerves activate muscles in healthy older adults. Twelve participants will undergo testing before and after four weeks of twice-weekly WB-EMS sessions. The goal is to see if this approach can counteract age-related declines in muscle control and physical function.
