Interferential currents

Alternating current of medium frequency delivered from the apparatus in two circuits of various frequencies. After proper placement of two pairs of electrodes on the skin, the interference of the current occurs inside tissues. The difference in frequency between the two circuits is from 0 to 100 Hz. Depending on current frequency the treatment can have different effects:

-  pain relief,
-  muscle electroexercise,
-  mprovement of peripheral circulation,
-  decrease of sympathetic nervous system tension.

Diadynamic currents DD

Are volleys of pulsed current with sinusoidal shape .there are six types of these currents (DF,MF,CP,LP,RS,MM) having various effects on tissues. Different types of electrodes are used for the treatments: circular, ball point or plate electrodes. Treatment most often used as pain relief. Indications: pain originated in spinal degenerative changes , discopathy, sciatic and brachial neuralgia.

TENS currents

(TENSE from English: Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation). impulse current applied in treatment of sharp and chronic pain conditions. Indications: muscle pain syndromes, backbone and joint pain syndromes, can be applied before painful treatments like stretching of contractured tissues or after surgeries to heal wounds. Contraindications: heart pacemaker, the first trimester of pregnancy

Traubert currents

Impulse current makes muscles vibrate which results in muscle relaxation and pain relief. Indications : spondylosis, spinal pain syndromes, muscular tension syndrome.

Kotz currents

currents used for electrostimulation of weakened muscles, lead to increased muscle strength and muscle mass growth. Applied in case of scoliosis, flat feet or as warming-up training for deep muscles. They improve metabolism and lower muscular tension.

Jonophoresis

Applying drugs into the tissues with the help if direct current using lelctrophoresis effect. It bases on putting conditioned tissues between electrodes placed directly on the skin covered with a proper medicine (ointment or gel).

Galvanization

Stimulating nerves and muscles with galvanic current. Bases on putting electrodes onto specified area.

Electrostimulation
