For those suffering from frozen shoulders, muscle spasms and sprains, DIATHERMY is the best therapy for you.
Diathermy uses electrical current to deliver core warming to deep body tissue and bring therapeutic processes from within to enjoy over-all comfort.
As heat increases the blood flow it makes the connective tissue more flexible to decrease joint stiffness and pain.
Diathermy is the use of electromagnetic energy to produce heat within the tissue. The electromagnetic energy is able to heat tissue at a depth of 3-5 centimeters below the surface of the skin without overheating the skin or subcutaneous tissues. Diathermy is performed with a specialized machine and electromagnetic coils that direct the electromagnetic energy down into the tissue.
Indications for use of diathermy.
The most commonly used applications for diathermy include decreasing joint stiffness, accelerating healing, controlling pain, controlling edema, healing wounds, healing bone, and healing nerves. Any person with pain, edema, decreased range of motion, nerve injury, or bone injury may benefit from diathermy.
