At Home Use of Stimulation Suits for Managing MS Symptoms

"In EXOPULSE Mollii Suit is a multi-channel full-body suit with a low energy electrical stimulation - 20 Volt and 20 Hz. It generates 2 milliamp pulses (into 0-10,000 Ohms) with the following parameters:~* Pulse width: variable between 25 and 170 μs.~* Length of period: 50 ms.~* Maximum amplitude: 20 V. It is composed of a control unit, a jacket and pants, with 58 embed-ded electrodes, in direct contact with the skin, and pre-positioned to stimulate 40 key muscle groups.~The suit comes in different sizes. A trained medical staff pre-programs which nerves/muscles to be stimulated based on a clinical assessment of the user and the outcome is evaluated through standardized methods. The stimulation program is thus specific to each user."

The rehabilitation therapy that is being offered at the National MS Center Melsbroek, but somewhat reduced/adjusted to make time for initiation and follow-up of using the neuromodulation suit and potentially also during the weeks at home (i.e., rehabilitation being offered by municipalities).
