Electrotherapy

Electrotherapy

Electrotherapy is a method of physical therapy used to prevent or treat diseases using electric currents and electromagnetic fields of various parameters.

Electrostimulation

Electrostimulation is the use of pulsed currents to stimulate or enhance the activity of nerves and muscles that have lost their normal function due to illness or injury. Functional electrical stimulation (FES), which uses low-frequency electric currents, is used to restore normal muscle function and improve movement control and posture.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (tens)

Low-frequency biphasic pulse current is used to reduce pain, which can be modulated by impulses or bursts. TENS – transcutaneous (through the skin) electrical nerve stimulation is used to relieve both chronic and acute pain. 

TENS activates the body’s nerve system suppressing mechanisms. Electrical impulses stimulate the release of endorphins and enkephalins, natural substances similar to morphine that block the transmission of pain messages to the brain, reducing pain.

The release of endorphins is slow. To achieve the maximum release of endorphins, a longer treatment time of 30 minutes to 2 hours is required.

TENS is a safe, non-invasive method of pain relief that has no side effects and does not develop the addiction inherent in pain relief medications. It can be used on its own as an analgesic and as an adjunct to pharmacological and/or physical agent modalities.

TENS therapy is used for the treatment of inflammatory and degenerative diseases of the peripheral nervous system, musculoskeletal system, peripheral circulatory disorders and injuries (neuritis, neuralgia, radiculopathy, polyneuropathy, osteochondrosis, osteoarthritis, ligament sprains, etc.).

Interferential Therapy (IFT)

Interferential current therapy is the use of medium-frequency currents for treatment. Two medium-frequency (3000 – 5000 Hz) alternating currents with the same amplitude but different frequencies are used (this difference does not exceed 100 Hz). Inside the tissues, where these currents meet, they interfere – a new medium-frequency alternating current with a periodically alternating amplitude is formed. In contrast to the low-frequency amplitude-modulated alternating current, amplitude modulation in this case occurs not in the IFT machine, but in the tissues of the patient. In this case, the therapist applies currents so that current interference occurs in the problem area. The tissues quickly get used to the interferential current, so the frequency of one of the currents changes rhythmically. At the moment of maximum amplitude, rhythmic muscle contractions occur in the area exposed to the interferential currents, which the patient feels as vibration. These muscle contractions improve peripheral blood flow and speed up metabolism.
