The support person shall have a bracelet and a lumbar belt to ensure fitting over the user’s body. In addition, the support member is fitted with rubber pad electrodes and vacuum suction cups Neuromuscular electrical stimulation is provided by rubber pad electrodes which promote passive contraction and muscle relaxation. The system is particularly suited for the treatment of lower back pain.
