Abstract
- The article discusses the safety aspects and contraindications related to whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) in commercial and medical settings. It addresses the controversy surrounding the classification of tumor and cancer as relative contraindications for WB-EMS application. The authors emphasize the importance of evidence-based and consensus-driven approaches to ensure the safety of vulnerable clients and the need for medical supervision in WB-EMS facilities. The article highlights the differences in risk assessments between commercial and medical settings and the role of medical gatekeepers in determining the eligibility of patients for WB-EMS.
