Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation Segment to Account for a Substantial Market Share of the Muscle Stimulation Industry

Based on product, the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation segment is projected to account for a substantial share of the global muscle stimulation industry owing to the rising incidences of arthritis as well as sports injuries. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 63 million adults in the United States were projected to be diagnosed with arthritis in 2020. This figure is expected to rise to 78 million by 2045. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of osteoporosis-related joint, bone, or muscle disorders is enhancing the demand for transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, which, in turn, is bolstering the usage of muscle stimulation therapy for pain management. Additionally, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation can be used for non-pharmacological therapy to alleviate pain and shorten the active labour phase. It can also act as a treatment modality for primary dysmenorrhea. These factors are projected to significantly contribute to the growth of the segment.

North America to Provide Significant Growth Opportunities to the Muscle Stimulation Industry

Geographically, North America accounts for a significant share in the industry owing to a rise in the number of sports-related injuries, the prevalence of sedentary lifestyle, rising incidence of pain management, and increasing access to high-quality healthcare across the regions. The United States is one of the largest global manufacturers of muscle stimulators and a leading global exporter. Meanwhile, muscle stimulation is enjoying a surge of popularity among the physiotherapists in this region. Furthermore, various types of new muscle stimulators are being considered for FDA approval as a result of technological advancements.  This has significantly contributed to the growth of the muscle stimulation industry during the forecast period.

Muscle Stimulation: Market Segmentation

Muscle stimulation is a protocol eliciting a muscle contraction using electrical impulses that directly stimulate motor neurons to strengthen weak muscles. This stimulation creates rapid and frequent muscle contractions with long pauses that last for several seconds or minutes at a time. Muscle stimulation has gained significant attention in recent years for a variety of reasons. It can be used for strength training by athletes and it has rehabilitation applications for partially or totally immobilised individuals. Furthermore, it is portable, affordable, and exhibits no adverse effects, making it suitable for home care.

Increasing Incidences of Musculoskeletal Disorders to Bolster the Growth of the Muscle Stimulation Industry

The global muscle stimulation industry is being driven by the increasing incidences of musculoskeletal disorders and other osteoporosis-related joint and bone disorders across the globe. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 1.71 billion people suffer from musculoskeletal conditions. Musculoskeletal disorders severely impair mobility and dexterity, resulting in early retirement, lower levels of well-being, and diminished ability to participate in society. The rising health concern and the increasing global demand for muscle stimulators are supporting the growth of the industry. Additionally, a surge in investments by private companies and government bodies for the development of muscle stimulators and advancements in muscle stimulation technologies, such as SmartMio and PowerDot, has further boosted the growth of the industry. Over the forecast period, the growing adoption of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and neuromuscular electrical stimulation is expected to significantly contribute to the industry growth. 

Moreover, the global muscle stimulation industry is expected to be aided by the increasing demand for life saving medical devices amid the rising cases of COVID-19 across the globe. An increase in physiological disabilities in COVID-19 patients because of long term ICU treatment is propelling the global demand for muscle stimulators. Additionally, Liberate Medical’s Vent Free Respiratory Muscle Stimulator was authorised by the FDA as an alternative to mechanical ventilation, further boosting the growth of the industry. Over the forecast period, the growing adoption of muscle stimulators amid the pandemic is expected to significantly contribute to the industry growth.
