What Is Electrotherapy
EMS & TENS & Electrostimulation
Electrotherapy is the oldest and most widely used physical therapy modality in clinical practice — and with modern devices like the Globus Genesy range, it remains one of the most versatile and effective tools available to practitioners and athletes alike.
Electrotherapy is the use of electrical current to stimulate biological tissuefor therapeutic purposes. Depending on the type of current used, its frequency, intensity and waveform, electrotherapy can be used to relieve pain, stimulate muscle contractions, accelerate healing, reduce inflammation and restore neuromuscular function.
The Globus range covers all major electrotherapy modalities — from simple TENS units for home pain relief to multi-channel professional devices delivering interferential, Russian current, EMS, TENS and combined programmes. Each modality has specific clinical applications and is supported by decades of clinical research.
The Modalities Explained
Types Of Electrotherapy
TENS
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
Uses low-frequency electrical pulses to interrupt pain signals and stimulate endorphin release. Primary application is pain relief for both acute and chronic conditions.
EMS
Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Uses medium-frequency current to cause muscle contractions. Used for muscle strengthening, rehabilitation of weakened muscle and performance enhancement in elite sport.
Interferential
Interferential Therapy
Two medium-frequency currents intersect inside the body creating a low-frequency effect at depth. Highly effective for deep joint pain and post-surgical oedema.
Russian Current
Medium Frequency Stimulation
Specific form of neuromuscular stimulation for maximal muscle strengthening. Used for quadriceps strengthening post knee surgery and elite athlete training programmes.
Microcurrents
Microcurrent Therapy
Ultra-low intensity current that mimics the body’s own bioelectrical signals. Stimulates ATP production, accelerates wound healing and reduces inflammation.
Iontophoresis
Transdermal Drug Delivery
Uses electrical current to drive charged drug molecules through the skin to the target area. Particularly effective for localised tendinopathies and joint conditions.

PHYSIOTHERAPY CLINICS
Electrotherapy is a cornerstone of physiotherapy practice. The Genesy range provides every modality needed in a professional clinic setting — TENS, EMS, interferential, Russian current and more in one device.
🏃
ATHLETES
The Globus sport range brings professional EMS and TENS to athletes at home. The Triathlon Pro, Runner Pro and Cycling Pro feature sport-specific programmes designed around the exact demands of each discipline.
⚽️
SPORTS CLUBS
Sports clubs use electrotherapy for in-season injury management, pre-match activation and post-match recovery. The same devices used by Nottingham Forest FC are available directly through The UK Chief.
🏠
HOME USERS
Home use Globus devices provide genuine clinical-grade electrotherapy for pain management, recovery and wellness at home — the Genesy S2, Duo TENS and Magnum range are designed for non-clinical home use.
