The use of external electrodes and its low intensity make it a non-invasive tool, considered superficial. When applied in a coordinated way across multiple muscles, FES can <strong data-start=\"1109\" data-end=\"1142\">generate functional movements<\/strong> that replicate natural actions like <strong data-start=\"1179\" data-end=\"1224\">walking, cycling, grasping, or sitting up<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1227\" data-end=\"1365\">\ud83d\udca1This is what makes it \u201cfunctional\u201d: the goal is not just to stimulate muscles, but to <strong data-start=\"1313\" data-end=\"1364\">support purposeful movements used in daily life<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1660\">At Neuro-Concept, FES is used as a <strong data-start=\"1440\" data-end=\"1475\">complement to physical training<\/strong>. Integrated into personalized rehabilitation programs, it is applied <strong data-start=\"1545\" data-end=\"1588\">safely and based on scientific evidence<\/strong>.

This approach fits within a broader <strong data-start=\"1885\" data-end=\"1930\">interdisciplinary rehabilitation strategy<\/strong>, empowering patients toward long-term
