| Electrotherapeutic Modalities
Electrotherapeutic modalities
Physiotherapists sometimes use electrical devices to stimulate
healing and produce pain relief. At pioneer clinic we use ultrasound and interferential
therapy.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound therapy is ultrasonic
waves applied to the body to help increase blood flow to the injured area. This
process aids removal of inflammatory toxins, increases nutritional circulation
and assists healing. It does not produce audible sound and is not painful.
Interferential
Interferential therapy involves
applying low level alternating currents through the tissues which produces a
tingling sensation. These currents stimulate the tissues to decrease pain and
swelling.
It is not painful but is intended to give a strong sensory
input to the body.
