PENS SKATE
This protocol simulates skating and can be used for lower extremity neuromuscular re-education in a lateral
(side to side) movement pattern.
Positioning – Early rehab: Have athlete lie on training table with hips and knees flexed, or legs over table.
Positioning – Mid to Late Rehab: Have athlete stand on a slide board with hip and knees slightly bent while they
wt, shift, or mimic skating motion across slide board with stim.
Positioning – Mid rehab: Have athlete stand on a slide board with hip and knees slightly bent weight shift with
stim.
Intensity: Moderate to strong muscle twitch with active muscle contraction. Adjust amplitude during the
treatment in response to the electrical stimulation, when and as needed

PENS JUMP
This protocol simulates jumping and provides aggressive neuromuscular re-education of the lower extremities.
Positioning: Standing with both knees slightly flexed. Instruct the athlete to actively jump when they hear the
tone, in synchrony with the start of the electrically stimulated muscle contractions.
Intensity: Moderate to strong muscle twitch with active muscle contraction. Adjust amplitude during the treatment
in response to the electrical stimulation, when and as needed.
