Remote Work, Discomfort, and Functional Electrotherapy

June 23, 2020

Since the advent of telecommuting, exacerbated by the pandemic, professionals face a major challenge: maintaining optimal work ergonomics at home

Historically, companies have invested in office ergonomics to prevent musculoskeletal disorders, but replicating this environment at home has proved complex.


As revealed in a Journal 24 heures article entitled Plus de maux de dos à cause du télétravail on May 19, 2020, physiotherapists are seeing a significant rise in consultations for telecommuting-related pain, including neck pain and cervical disorders exacerbated by poor posture.


Faced with these challenges, functional electrotherapy is emerging as a promising solution for those seeking pain relief in the comfort of their own home.

Specializing in the optimized use of TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation), this approach offers a non-pharmacological alternative to pain management.


Véronique Lamy, President of Service d'Électro-Thérapie, emphasizes the importance of personalized support in the effectiveness of this method. Thanks to an in-depth teaching process lasting up to an hour, backed up by telephone support and follow-up by physical rehabilitation therapists specialized in functional electrotherapy, every patient is assured of optimal use of TENS.


Experience shows that, without instruction tailored to their specific condition, many have failed to reap the full benefits of TENS. This is where Service d'Électro-Thérapie comes in, offering an effective, safe and easily accessible solution for all those who have never explored this technique or are looking to optimize their pain management.


Service d'Électro-Thérapie is committed to providing a simple yet effective approach, guaranteeing not only pain relief but also an enriched user experience thanks to tailored support. This underlines the importance of discussing functional electrotherapy with a healthcare professional and exploring the options available through their network of partner clinics.


Teleworking doesn't have to mean discomfort or pain. Thanks to innovative solutions like functional electrotherapy, it's possible to work from home while preserving physical well-being.
