TMG — Tensiomyography in Barcelona

Tensiomyography turns weakness into a number. It measures how each muscle actually contracts, with no needles and no effort from you.

We apply a gentle electrical stimulus to the muscle belly and a sensor measures how far the muscle displaces as it contracts. That produces parameters such as contraction time and maximum displacement, which tell us which side is weaker, which is slow to fire and which is still fatigued from your last session. It is the test that lets us decide whether your problem should be trained or treated, and it is the basis for the referral to the athletic trainer.

What it is for

Detect left-right asymmetry before it causes an injury
Measure residual fatigue to adjust training load
Establish objectively which muscle to strengthen and which to leave alone
Track recovery with data that is comparable between sessions

Who it is for

Athletes under high load, anyone returning from injury, and anyone who keeps getting hurt on the same side.
