DC iontophoresis electrotherapy

Therapeutic effects: (1) Prevent and treat muscle atrophy (2) Train muscles to do new movements (3) Prevent and treat adhesions and promote blood and lymph circulation in limbs (4) Sedate and relieve pain (5) Used for electrical stimulation therapy

Indications: disuse muscle atrophy, low muscle tone, soft tissue adhesions

Contraindications: People with bleeding tendencies, skin damage, and allergic reactions

The frequency is generally adjustable from 1 to 150Hz. The most commonly used is 70~110Hz (conventional TENS)

Therapeutic effects: (1) Analgesic (2) Improve peripheral blood circulation (3) Promote fracture and wound healing (4) Treat angina pectoris

Indications: Various acute and chronic pains: various neuralgias, headaches, joint pains, postoperative wound pain

Contraindications: It is contraindicated for those with pacemakers, the abdomen, lumbosacral area, and eyes of pregnant women.

TENS parameters Mode Intensity Pulse Frequency Pulse Width Indications Conventional TENS Comfortable numbing sensation 75~100Hz <0.2ms Acute and chronic pain; short-term pain relief Acupuncture-like TENS Suprathreshold movement, generally 1~4Hz 0.2~0.3ms Acute and chronic pain; peripheral circulation 2 to 4 times the sensory threshold; ring disorder; long-term pain relief Short-term strong stimulation, muscle rigidity or spasm-like 150Hz >0.3ms, used for minor surgeries and painful sexual exercises. Enhance analgesia during TENS contraction

Definition: The use of low-frequency pulse current to stimulate muscles that have lost nerve control and cause them to contract to replace or correct the lost functions of organs and limbs.

Commonly used frequencies are mostly between 15~50Hz.

Indications: joint strain, neuralgia, intestinal adhesions

Contraindications: Acute infectious diseases, tumors, hemorrhagic diseases, severe heart failure, renal insufficiency, cardiac area, lumbosacral region of pregnant women, and those with pacemakers.

Therapeutic effects: (1) Promote blood circulation (2) Analgesia (3) Reduce swelling (4) Treat and prevent muscle atrophy (5) Adjust visceral function (6) Regulate autonomic nerves (7) Promote fracture healing

Current intensity: generally within 50mA

Indications: Lumbar disc herniation, Raynaud's disease, gastroptosis

Contraindications: Acute inflammation, bleeding tendency, pregnant women's lower abdomen, local metal foreign bodies, severe heart disease, etc.

Therapeutic effects: (1) Analgesia (2) Promote blood circulation (3) Promote lymphatic return (4) Excite neuromuscular (5) Improve smooth muscle tone (6) Regulate autonomic nervous function (7) Anti-inflammatory (8) Drug iontophoresis

Indications: Neck, shoulder, back, waist and leg pain, muscle sprains, tenosynovitis

Contraindications: People with local malignant tumors, active pulmonary tuberculosis, and cardiac pacemakers

Short wave wavelength is 100~10m, frequency is 3~30MHz, ultra-short wave wavelength is 10~1m, frequency is 30~300NHz.

Therapeutic effects: (1) Anti-inflammation and swelling (2) Sedation, antispasmodic, and analgesic (3) Improve visceral function (4) Promote tissue repair (5) Inhibit the growth of malignant tumors

The therapeutic dose and duration of short wave treatment: The therapeutic dose of short wave is divided into four levels according to the patient's feeling of warmth: no heat (level I dose): the patient has no feeling of warmth, the neon tube is bright or dark, and the current intensity is 100-120mA. Suitable for patients with early stage of acute inflammation, edema, and circulatory disorders. The treatment time is 5 to 10 minutes, 1 to 2 times a day, and 5 to 10 times is a course of treatment. Microcaloric (level II dose): The patient has a weak feeling of warmth, the neon light tube is slightly bright, and the current intensity is 130~170mA. It is suitable for subacute and chronic inflammation. The treatment time is 10 to 20 minutes, once a day, and 10 to 20 times is a course of treatment. Warming heat (level III dose): The patient has an obvious feeling of warmth, the neon light tube is bright, and the current intensity is 180~240mA. It is suitable for chronic inflammation and diseases with local circulation disorders. For example, when treating acute renal failure, warm heat is used for 30 to 60 minutes, 1 to 2 times a day, and 5 to 8 times is a course of treatment. Heat (level IV dose): The patient has a strong sense of heat, the neon tube is bright, and the current intensity is more than 240mA. Suitable for the treatment of malignant tumors

Indications: Short wave is mainly suitable for the subacute and chronic stages of injuries and illnesses. Ultrashort wave is mainly suitable for the acute and subacute stages of injuries and illnesses, and can also be used for the chronic stages.

Contraindications: malignant tumors, bleeding tendencies, tuberculosis, pregnancy, severe cardiopulmonary insufficiency, local metallic foreign bodies, and implanted cardiac pacemakers.

Electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 1m~1mm and a frequency of 300~300000MHz are microwaves.
