I did electrical muscle stimulation on my orbiculari oculi muscles for better lower eye support and less UEE for about 3 weeks, 2 to 3 times per week with low intensity and for 5-10 minutes per session. That was enough to give me involuntary muscle spasms,or blepharospasm. my upper eyelid randomly begins to twitch for up to a minute. I looked into the mirror and the eyelid barely closes, but it is still visible. this thing happens daily and I have it since a few days. Hopefully it is actually caused by stress and will go away in a few days.
It may be a sign of nerve damage though and idk yet if it can ever go away ( heal itself ).
So be careful if you want to go and do this.
Dont overdue it, meaning imo not more than once per week at not more than 5 minutes per session. You can also get a much worse condition called rhabdomyolysis, meaning that your muscles get damaged and their fibre gets into the blood and reaches your kidney, causing even death due to toxicity ( any muscle trained with ems is susceptible to this, but this is common in whole body ems training ): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6937082/
