Several embodiments are provided for a modular therapeutic garment having electrodes integral with the garment and treatment permitted by such garment. The therapeutic garment can comprise a compression knit fabric material, and an array of electrodes integral with the compression knit fabric material. The compression knit fabric material can exert pressures within a range including values suitable for clinical treatment. The array of electrodes can be arranged to overlie specific portions of a subject, such as muscle groups or other body parts. Each electrode of the array of electrode can be formed of a conductive knit fabric material. The conductive knit fabric material can enclose a liquid absorptive material. A method for treating a musculoskeletal dysfunction with the therapeutic garment also is provided. The method also can be effective at improving musculoskeletal condition of healthy subjects.
