Laser therapy is based on photochemical and photobiological effects in cells and tissues. Laser light stimulates the mitochondria of the cell, recharging it with energy and regerating it in the
case of traumatic situations.
• Anti-inflammatory effect
• Effects on the peripheral nervous system (antalgic and regenerative effect)
• Biostimulating effect and tissue regeneration
• Effect on microcirculation and on blood vessels: the laser improves local microcirculation giviing relief from local spasms of the arteriolar and venular vessels
• Enzymatic photoactivation effect
Ultrasound
The application of ultrasound results in a high-frequency cellular and intercellular massage action. Also the tissues irradiated with ultrasound enter into vibration, the result is an expenditure of energy with consequent production of heat. It also occurs the cavitation phenomenon that activates the oxidation and polymerization processes. Ultrasounds are mainly used for pain reduction.
The combined treatment, electrotherapy + ultrasound, adds the analgesic and hyperemic effect of the electrical stimulus to the mechanical and thermal effect of ultrasound.
3 + 1 technologies
Combimed 4000 is a physiotherapy platform equipped with 3 technologies: ultrasound+ electrotherapy + LLLT laser Also compatible with Vacuumed vacuum therapy for an even more complete therapy.
Multitherapy mode
The multitherapy protocols use ultrasound, electrotherapy and laser therapy sequentially. In this way it is possible to take the maximum advantage of each technology and treat different pathologies effectively.
Combined mode
Electrotherapy and ultrasound can be used simultaneously in combined protocols.
