In this episode Tyler interviews Dan Dixon, Vice President of NeuX Technology. They discuss the use of interactive neuromuscular stimulation (INS) for therapeutic applications. Dan shares his personal journey of discovering Ray Peat's work and how it transformed his understanding of health and healing. Dan explains the differences between generic stim and INS.. He also discusses the benefits of using INS in non-rehab settings and its potential for hypertrophy and strength training. Overall, INS offers a unique approach to stimulating the body's electrical currents and promoting positive physiological responses.

Takeaways:

Interactive neuromuscular stimulation (INS) is a next-generation modality that uses electrical currents to stimulate positive physiological responses in the body.

The technology has the potential to improve range of motion, reduce chronic pain, and enhance muscle activation.

INS helps muscles support the body, preventing stress on bones, ligaments, tendons, and joints.

INS has both local and systemic effects, providing acute relief in treated areas and broader benefits throughout the body.
