Electrostimulation, Combat, ObesityAbstract
Obesity is a disease that has been a worldwide concern over time, it consists mainly of the individual's high body mass. In addition to the locomotor difficulty, the disease is accompanied by other series of infirmities that can become moral for the obese individual. With this, it is known that physical activity is the method that most favors the quality of life of these individuals, however, because they have a locomotor limitation, in addition to pain, there is currently a proposal on the market, which is electrostimulation, whose objective is to help in physical performance and decreasing body mass. Therefore, this study aims to present the use of electrostimulation in the fight against obesity. With this, through bibliographical research, it is intended to present answers to the following questions: “what is obesity and what are the impacts on the health of individuals with it?”; “What is electrostimulation and how does it work in helping to fight obesity?”, “What are the results when applying electrostimulation?” and “Is this method efficient?”. For this, a bibliographical research was carried out that can answer these questions and demonstrate the efficiency of the method, as well as its importance.
