Abstract: A garment worn by the patient is provided. The garment has a first module electrically connected to a second module. The first module has a first sub-control unit electrically connected to a first electrode and a second electrode placed at a first muscle of the patient and a third electrode and a fourth electrode placed at a second muscle. The sub-control unit is electrically connected to a master unit. The first muscle is stimulated with a first stimulation signal without shortening the first muscle by sending the first stimulation signal to the first electrode placed at the first muscle. The stimulation of the first muscle relaxes the second muscle. A measuring unit (U1) of the master unit determines a first current value flowing from the first electrode through the first muscle to the second electrode and sends the first current value to a central processing unit (CPU).

Abstract: A medical therapy arrangement, for applying electrical stimulation to a subject, includes a garment having electrodes at an inner surface. A control unit controls each electrode to work as one or more of anode, cathode or disconnected state, per a predetermined therapy stimulation program. Furthermore, the arrangement includes: at least one connection unit having a predetermined number of connection elements respectively electrically connected to the electrodes via separate connection lines being flexible and elastic and integrated into the garment; at least one connection board having a predetermined number of connection pads electrically connected to the control unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to muscle relaxation. Muscle relaxation is desired in many disease states, including spastic paresis and biomechanical and neuromuscular dysfunction. More specifically, the invention relates to a system that causes muscle relaxation by reducing muscular spasticity through the stimulation of joints and muscles. The system consists of a garment with electrodes, a hardware unit and software controlling the stimulation.
