Electro Therapy Physiotherapy

Electrotherapy in Physiotherapy refers to the use of electrical energy to treat various musculoskeletal, neurological, and circulatory conditions. It is a non-invasive treatment commonly used to reduce pain, improve muscle function, and promote healing. Electrotherapy is applied using specialized devices that deliver controlled electrical impulses to targeted body areas.

TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation):
- Used for pain relief.
- Delivers low-voltage electrical current to nerve endings via surface electrodes.
EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation):
- Stimulates muscle contractions to improve strength and prevent atrophy.
- Commonly used after injuries or surgeries.
IFC (Interferential Current Therapy):
- Uses two high-frequency currents to target deeper tissues.
- Effective for pain relief and reducing inflammation.
Ultrasound Therapy:
- Uses high-frequency sound waves to promote tissue healing and improve blood circulation.
Laser and Light Therapy:
- Employs low-level laser or light to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
Iontophoresis:
- Delivers medication through the skin using electrical currents.
- Often used for localized pain or inflammation.
Microcurrent Therapy:
- Uses very low-intensity currents to stimulate cell repair and reduce pain.
