Patent attributes
An electrostimulation method of at least one muscle group responsible for performing a complex movement includes associating to each of the muscles of the at least one muscle group an electrostimulation channel provided with at least one respective electrode. Each electrostimulation channel is suitable to transmit to the respective muscle bipolar electrical pulses in sequence. For all the electrostimulation channels, a same cycle time defining a repeatable period of stimulation is determined, in which, within the stimulation period, each channel performs its own stimulation sequence. Each stimulation period is sub-divided into two half-periods of equal duration. Each half-period is sub-divided into sub-intervals of the same duration. At least one of the sub-intervals is a stimulation sub-interval wherein a basic sequence of pulses including one or more pulse packets is performed, each pulse packet being given by a predetermined sequence of individual bipolar electric pulses.
