‘sEMG’ stands for static Electromyography. It is a device that measures the amount of electrical activity your muscles release when they are contracting, more commonly known as muscle tension.
sEMG is similar in function to an EcG which measure heart muscle activity. The ‘Thermal’ Element of the scanner provides us with further data regarding how spinal misalignments and muscle tension are impacting your body.
The scanner also measures the symmetry of the left and right side of your body, showing us how your body has adapted to cope with your daily endeavours.
The sEMG is not an invasive procedure and does not produce additional radiation.
As part of your Chiropractic Care schedule, the scan will be re-performed to accurately track the impact of care on your overall health
