Physical Modalities
Diathermy is a non-surgical procedure that produces heat with high-frequency electrical currents to stimulate circulation and promote healing. Electric Muscle Stim uses superficial pad placement with electric currents to relax muscles, drives blood flow to the area, and accelerates the healing process. Hot and Cold Therapies are used to treat acute and chronic conditions to reduce swelling, pain, and relax the muscles. Ultrasound relaxes the muscles with ultrasonic waves to relax muscles, tendons, and fascia.
