Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy

What is Shockwave Therapy? Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that helps the body’s natural healing process. It can reduce pain and speed up the healing of torn ligaments, tendons, and other soft tissues. It does this by releasing maturation factors from injured soft tissue. Shockwave treatment is occasionally employed with extracorporeal pulse activation technological…

Magnetotherapy

Magnetotherapy

What is Magnetotherapy? Magnetotherapy, also known as magnetic therapy, is a form of alternative medicine that involves the use of static magnetic fields to improve health and alleviate pain. This treatment technique involves applying artificial magnetic fields to an affected human body area while adjusting the strength and frequency. When we expose the damaged body’s region to…

Lumbar traction

Lumbar Traction

What is Lumbar Traction? Lumbar traction is a therapeutic technique used to relieve pain and improve function in individuals suffering from lower back conditions, particularly those involving compression or irritation of the spinal structures. This non-invasive treatment involves applying a pulling force to the spine to create a separation between the vertebrae, which can help…

Cervical Traction

Cervical Traction

What is cervical traction therapy? Cervical traction is a therapeutic technique used to alleviate pain and discomfort in the cervical spine, which consists of the seven vertebrae in the neck. This method involves applying a gentle pulling force to the head, stretching the neck to create space between the vertebrae. By doing so, cervical traction aims…

Electrical Stimulation

Electrical stimulation (ES)

What is Electrical Stimulation? Electrical stimulation (ES) is a therapy that uses electrical currents to deliver tiny pulses to nerves or muscles. These pulses can cause muscles to contract, similar to how the brain sends signals to muscles during voluntary movement. The idea is that employing an electrical current develops muscles, decreases pain signals, and…

Iontophoresis

Iontophoresis

What is Iontophoresis? Iontophoresis is a medical method that uses small electrical currents to transfer drugs across biological membranes, usually while the injured body part is submerged in water. Iontophoresis is generally used to treat hyperhidrosis, which is characterized by chronic and profuse sweating. Currents are frequently administered to the hands, feet, or armpits, for…

Long Wave Diathermy (LWD)

Long Wave Diathermy (LWD)

What is a Long Wave Diathermy (LWD)? Long Wave Diathermy (LWD) is a therapeutic technique utilized in physiotherapy and rehabilitation settings to alleviate pain and promote healing. Long wave diathermy operates at frequencies ranging from 0.3 to 1MHz. The high-frequency current generates heat deep into the tissues, which lasts around 30 minutes. Long wave diathermy generates…

traction

Traction

What is Traction Therapy? One kind of treatment called traction involves exerting a longitudinal strain on the spine’s axis. In other words, sections of the spinal column are tugged in opposite directions to stabilize or modify the position of injured spinal segments. The force is generally given to the head by a series of weights…

LASER therapy

LASER Therapy (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation)

What is LASER Therapy? Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation(LASER) LASER therapy is the use of low-intensity laser light to treat pain caused by soft tissue injury. It promotes tissue healing and regular cell activity. LASER treatment treats musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative disorders, and wound healing by emitting monochromatic light from high-intensity super luminous LEDs….
