A proposito di questo titolo
A Japanese study found stress markers dropped after just 20 minutes of rhythmic EMS. Could gentle electrical muscle stimulation calm stress without walking or exercise?
Researchers measured stress using saliva, not opinions or surveys. Salivary amylase is a real biological stress marker used in medical research.
In this study, only low-frequency rhythmic EMS showed meaningful stress changes. The change was statistically significant, with a p-value of 0.023.
Higher-frequency EMS showed no stress benefit at all. Doing nothing showed no change either.
Timing and rhythm turned out to matter more than intensity. The stress marker dropped 30 minutes after rhythmic EMS ended.
No side effects were reported in any group. No medication was involved.
Researchers compared EMS to rhythmic walking or cycling effects. But this required no voluntary movement at all.
This raises a fascinating question about how rhythm affects the nervous system. And how muscles may talk to the brain without exercise.
This is only one finding. But it opens many doors.
