Interferential Current

Interferential current therapy is stimulation made by the interception of two electrical mediums of varying frequencies that work together to successfully stimulate large impulse fibers. These frequencies interfere with the pain transmission messages at the spinal cord level. This device used to stimulate nerve endings in deep tissue in order to reduce swelling, relieve pain, stop muscle spasms, increase blood flow and support healing. 

 

Conditions in which Electrical Stimulation is used may include:

     • Neck pain

     • Scoliosis
    • Shoulder pain

     • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
    • Back Pain

     • Disc Issues
    • Sciatica and pinched nerves
    • Slipped discs

     • Hip pain
    • Knee, arm, ankle, and elbow pain

Russian Stimulation Therapy

Russian stimulation Therapy is helpful in strengthening muscles. It is commonly used to assist a muscle in strengthening which is often weakened during lesions and post-surgery, there is one stimulation pad on the muscle’s insertion into the bone and another on the muscle belly. This is the only type of stimulation where reduces muscle atrophy and best current to build muscle strength.

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Ultrasound equipment consist essentially of high frequency generator and an applicator. Electric oscillation produced by the generator cause the transducer in the applicator to vibrate and generate the ultrasonic waves. This process oi one of transforming electrical energy into mechanical energy due to surface pressure- thus a piezoelectric effect.

The effect of ultrasound via an increase in local blood flow can be used to help reduce local swelling and chronic inflammation. Also, according to some studies, promote bone fracture healing.

Therapeutic ultrasound has been showing increases in:

​

  • healing rates

  • tissue relaxation

  • tissue heating

  • local blood flow

  • scar tissue breakdown.

Electrical Stimulation Therapy

Electrical stimulation is a type of Chiropractic Care used to accomplish various tasks in Rehabilitation Program. If you have an injury or illness that causes pain or limited functional mobility, your Chiropractor may use electrical stimulation, as one part of your Physical Rehabilitation program.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation therapy for muscle recovery sends signals to targeted muscles to make them contract. By causing repeated muscle contractions, blood flow improves, helping repair injured muscles.

 Electrical Stimulation Therapy send signals on a different wavelength so they reach the nerves, rather than the muscles. Electrical stimulation can block pain receptors from being sent from nerves to the brain.

 

Conditions in which Electrical Stimulation is used may include:

• Neck pain

     • Scoliosis
    • Shoulder pain

     • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
    • Back Pain

     • Disc Issues
    • Sciatica and pinched nerves
    • Slipped discs

     • Hip pain
    • Knee, arm, ankle, and elbow pain
    • Ankle and foot Pain
    • Asthma

     • Numbness and tingling in arms and legs
    • Numbness and tingling in extremities
    • Migraines and Headache

Microcurrent Electrical Therapy

Microcurrent is the application of specific frequency electrical currents to the injured part of the body.  Microcurrent Therapy helps injured tissue heal faster and provides relief from pain caused by injury or chronic conditions. Microcurrent therapy is most valuable when combined with your individualized Physical Therapy Program.

 

Microcurrent therapy helps to restore your electromagnetic field back to normal, thus allowing your injured cells to repair themselves.  This leads to healing and prevention of futures injuries.

 

 

What are some of the conditions that Microcurrent Therapy can treat?

  • Carpel Tunnel Syndrome

  • Neuromuscular Pain/Inflammation

  • Back Pain

  • Bell’s Palsy

  • Bone Fractures

  • Concussion

  • Disk Injuries

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Fibrosis

  • Fractures

  • Frozen Shoulder

  • Joint Pain/Instability

  • Myofascial Pain

  • Osteoarthritis

  • Nerve injuries

  • Peripheral Neuropathy

  • Post-Surgery Pain

  • Scar Tissue

  • Sciatica

  • Spinal Disc Pain

  • Sports Injuries

  • Sprains/Strains

  • Tennis Elbow

  • Whiplash Injuries

​

Cold Laser Therapy

Low-level laser therapy is a fast-growing technology used to treat a multitude of conditions that require stimulation of healing, relief of pain and inflammation, and restoration of function. Although the skin is the organ that is naturally exposed to light more than any other organ, it still responds well to red and near-infrared.

 

Tissue Effects:

  • Accelerates fibroblast proliferation

  • Increases fibroplasia

  • Increase collagen synthesis

  • Increase lymphatic function

  • Reduce inflammatory response
