Shockwave for physiotherapy:
Shockwave is an acoustic wave which carries high energy to painful areas and soft tissues with subacute, subchronic and chronic conditions. This energy promotes healing, regenerating and reparative processes. It's a unique, noninvasive solution for pain associated with the musculoskeletal system. Just three to four treatments needed at weekly intervals. A therapy session only takes approximately 10 minutes.
Ultrasound therapy :
Ultrasound therapy causes mechanical vibrations, from high frequency sound waves, on skin and soft tissue via an aqueous solution (Gel). A gel is applied either to the applicator head or to the skin, which helps the sound waves to evenly penetrate the skin.
The ultrasound applicator converts power from the device into acoustic power that can cause thermal or non-thermal effects. The sound waves creates microscopic stimulation in the deep tissue molecules that increases heat and friction. The warming effect encourages and promotes healing in the soft tissues by increasing the metabolism at the level of the tissue cells.
Tecar RF therapy:
1. Treatment theory
Tecar therapy is a part of Endogenous Thermotherapy, which is based on the principle of capacitive and resistive energy transfer (Capacitive-Resistive Diathermy). It has an effect within the biological tissues, activating the body's natural repairing and anti-inflammatory processes from within.
