Prime Physio Care Clinic provides different forms of electrotherapy treatments. Some most popular types include:
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation):
This technique uses low-voltage electrical current to stimulate nerves. This causes the brain to receive fewer pain signals resulting in pain relief. This technique uses physio TENS machines which include adjustable settings that allow you to control pulse frequency, length, and intensity. This helps in the reduction of chronic pain and nerve pain providing relief to the affected area.Â
Electro Acupuncture:
Combining the principles of traditional acupuncture with electrical stimulation. This method targets specific acupoints. Needles are attached to electrical wires, releasing mild current in the body. This reduces pain and helps in the regeneration of tissues. Currently, this technique is not yet available for routine clinical use. However, it may be integrated in the future, depending on the advancement of research and regulatory permission approvals.
Ultrasound Therapy:
Low-frequency sound waves are penetrated deep into damaged tissue through physio ultrasound treatment. This is done using a round-headed applicator, moved in circulation motion on the injured area. This increases blood circulation, reduces inflammation, and breaks down the scar tissues.Â
Shockwave Therapy:
High-energy waves are used to stimulate injured tissues, tendons, and ligaments. It is more effective in conditions like plantar fasciitis and tendonitis.
Laser Therapy:
A focused light is applied to the injured area to stimulate tissue cells. This promotes fast healing and pain reduction in muscle strains. It is more effective for patients who have not responded to other therapies.
