A belt system for postnatal muscle building that incorporates washable electrodes for muscle stimulation will be presented by the Sächsisches Textilforschungsinstitut (STFI) at April’s Techtextil trade fair.
The novel smart textile for stimulating and strengthening the deep abdominal and pelvic floor muscles using modulated medium frequencies was developed by a team of companies and research institutions.
