  The human spine is  a complex anatomic structure that is the scaffolding for the entire body . It provides several important functions, including: Protecting the spinal cord and nerves. Structural support for the body, allowing us to stand upright. The spine supports about half the weight of the body. The Back is a intricate structure of bones,muscles and other tissues that forms the posterior parts of body from the neck to the hip and pelvis.The back that forms the core of back structure is called as spine and spinal column. There are total 33 pairs of vertebrae includes Cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum and coccyx. Vertebrae supports the half of the body weight houses the spinal cord and nervous system

  The digestive system includes  the mouth, pharynx (throat), esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anus . It also includes the salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas, which make digestive juices and enzymes that help the body digest food and liquids. Digestion is  important for breaking down food into nutrients , which the body uses for energy, growth, and cell repair. Digestion works by moving food through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Digestion begins in the mouth with chewing and ends in the small intestine Movement of Food Through G.I Tract Food moves through your GI tract by a process called peristalsis. The large, hollow organs of your GI tract contain a layer of muscle that enables their walls to move. The movement pushes food and liquid through your GI tract and mixes the contents within each organ. The muscle behind the food contracts and squeezes the food forward, while the muscle in front of the food relaxes to allow the food to mov

 Motor point is a small area on a muscle at which the minimal amount of electrical stimulation will cause muscle to contract. How to find motor point To locate your own  motor point  more accurately, you can move the positive electrode slightly (red cable) and watch where the muscle response is the best (strongest twitch of the same intensity). The  motor point  pen is an accessory that is sold separately in order to  find  the  motor point Motor points of upper limb Placement of electrodes is very important  red and black electrode cat is black black is active means pen electrode will be black while red one will be pad electrode. .
