Short wave therapy
The application of warmth in tissue Shortwave Therapy for which generates electric and magnetic fields are used. Short waves are applied using either the method or the field Condenser and coil field method.
With the condenser field method the treated body part is placed between two condenser plates (electrodes shell or soft rubber electrodes). A periodic charge exchange process occurs in the treated tissue under the influence of high frequency alternating electrical fields, Which results in uniform heating through of all levels of the treated tissue segments.
The method uses a coil field coil in the form of a vortex current electrode (single-dose) or Diploid. The high frequency current flows through the coil, which creates a variable magnetic field in its environment. The predominant magnetic field causes a warming in tissue with good conductive structure, such as connective tissue and muscles.
In the impulse mode during the shortwave therapy, the focus is on the a thermal effect with trophic enhancement and reflective influences on the vascular system. The local thermal effect dominates in continuous operation, causing improved cell metabolism, reduced viscosity of bodily fluids, higher tensibility of collagen fibers, circulation stimulation and manipulation of the nervous system. Shortwave therapy is therefore used predominantly in the fields of orthopedics, traumatology, rheumatology, as well as in some cases in , urology, gynecology and internal medicine for:
"Treatment of chronic inflammations
Pain Reduction
"Spasm reduction and muscular relaxation.
Short wave therapy
• The short-wave, short wave diathermy Therapy Curapuls 419
The application of short wave (wave) of CURAPULS 419 creates an exogenous temperature (from outside to inside), which penetrates deep and is made in two ways:
• Using the method of the condenser
• With the inductive method
This treatment is done through special electrodes (battery-elastic circular electrodes or electrode CIRCUPLODE) of various sizes placed
1) Cross application
2) Long application
3) Parallel application
Results include:
• increase blood circulation
(vasodilatation)
• increase
lymphatic circulation
• increase metabolism and
elimination of the products of metabolism and reduce of inflammation
• rapid healing of wounds
• direct inhibitory effect on sensory nerve fibers and thus reduce the pain
• absorption of oedema
• activation dynamic of the peripheral circulation
Recommended for post-traumatic stress disorder - post-operative injury - inflammation.
The short wave therapy CURAPULS allows us to have a pulsed or continuous emission (based on chronic or acute phase of disease).
Indication:
• Orthopedics
• Neurology
• Rheumatology
Contraindications
• This method is contraindicated in malignant tumors and those that carry the pacemaker.
