Where is ELECTROTHERAPY applied:

• Sports injuries and post-traumatic conditions, distortions or distensions of joints, contusions or ruptures of muscles.
• Fractures of bones and joints

HYROPHYSICAL CLINIC uses 25 forms of currents in its rehabilitation program, we will list some of those that are most often used:

• Galvanic current (GA)
• Diadynamic currents (DDS)
• Interference currents (IFS)

• Farad current (FS)
• Neofarad current (NF)
• Russian current (RS)
• Drug electrophoresis (EF)

TECAR THERAPY

Tekar therapy is based on the application of radio frequency current waves, which result in a thermal reaction in the tissues. During the treatment of the injured area, biocompatible radial energy accelerates metabolic processes, accelerates the self-healing of the injured tissue.

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF TEKAR THERAPY

Tekar therapy is based on the application of radio frequency current waves that cause a thermal reaction. When treating a certain region, the metabolic process is accelerated and the process of self-healing is stimulated. Tekar therapy has two modes in which it works:

• Capacitive
• Resistive

We would like to point out that TEKAR THERAPY has a depth effect in relation to other currents, so that it can also treat deeper positioned structures.

BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF TEKAR THERAPY:

• Biostimulation
• Hyperactivation
• Microcirculation

WHEN IS TEKAR APPLIED?

The therapy has a very wide range of applications, it is important to point out that it is used in both acute and chronic conditions. The therapy shows exceptional results when applied in the joint itself, because with its endogenous heat it can reach its interior. During the therapy, the patient feels a pleasant warmth deep in the tissue, depending on the diagnosis itself, the following is applied:

• Thermal (warm)
• Athermic (cold)

It is very important to point out that the treatment is extremely pleasant, there is no such unpleasant effect as when applying certain currents.

WHY TEKAR THERAPY?

• Because it often happened to us that the patient came and said, I don’t want electricity, you only do manual therapy for me, the currents didn’t help me at all.
• Because compared to standard currents, it has a deep, not just a surface effect
• Because it affects the wrist itself
• Because the effect is pleasant
• The treatment lasts a maximum of 20 minutes
• The effect was felt very quickly
• Fewer therapies are needed
• The statistics that were done indicate that 85% of patients feel relief after the first therapy
• A small number of contraindications

WHAT IS ACHIEVED BY NOW THERAPY?

• Reduction of swelling
• Anti-inflammatory effect (anti-inflammatory)
• Toxin absorption (stimulates the lymphatic system and eliminates toxins)
• Helps the recovery process (at the macroscopic and cellular level)
• Muscle relaxation
• Analgesic effect (pain reduction)

WHERE IS TEKAR APPLIED?

CERVICAL (NECK) SPINE:

• Cervicobrachial syndrome
• Paresthesias (tingling)

Contraindications for TEKAR THERAPY:

• Malignancy
• Pregnancy
• Pacemaker
• Metal in the treatment zone of the region
• Thrombosis

ULTRASOUND (UZ)

Ultrasound therapy is the application of sound waves for therapeutic purposes.

The basic principle of action is mechanical action. It consists of high-frequency wave motion of sound waves that lead to mechanical vibration of tissue particles, and thus to tissue micromassage.

Other actions are:

• Vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels)
• Analgesic (pain reduction)
• Anti-inflammatory (anti-inflammatory)
• Antiedematous (against swelling)
• Spasmolytic (reduces muscle spasm)
• Fibrinolytic (reduces scarring)
• Increases motor nerve irritability

Contraindications to ultrasound:

• Pacemaker
• Bleeding
• Osteoporosis
• Malignant tumors
• Infection
• Vein thrombosis

MAGNETOTHERAPY

One form of physical therapy, it uses electromagnetic energy fields in various diseases.
The method itself is effective, safe and non-invasive. Leads to stimulation tissue after damage.
The advantage of magnetotherapy over other therapies is that it can also be applied to patients where metal is present in the tissue – after surgery, where an artificial hip or knee is implanted, or after the implantation of metal rods on long bones.

Indications for the use of magnetotherapy:

• Cervical (lumbar), lumbar syndrome
• Rehabilitation after delayed wound healing, contracture, neuralgia, peripheral circulation disorder, pressure ulcer
• Treatment of rheumatic diseases, degenerative and inflammatory processes in the joints, osteoporosis, extraarticular rheumatism
• In the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, sprains (distortion), distension, fracture

Therapeutic effect of the magnet:

• Analgesic (pain reduction)
• Antiedematous (swelling reduction)
• Anti-inflammatory (reduction of inflammation)
• Accelerates tissue regeneration (regeneration), wound healing, fractures bone, injury), by supplying cells with nutrients and oxygen

Contraindications:

• Pregnant women
• Malignancy
• Thrombosis
• Febrile conditions (fever)
• Pacemaker
• Hearing aids

LASER THERAPY

It represents the therapeutic application of lasers in patients who are indicated for such therapy.

The laser can be applied alone or in combination with another forms of physical therapy.

When it comes to laser, it is important to point out that the therapy is painless, it is applied either to acupuncture points, or to sore points, alone treatment does not last long, depending on the condition in which it is applied.

The approximate treatment time is 5-15 minutes. The application can be contact and non-contact (depending on the type of disease).

Conditions where application is indicated:

• Inflammation (inflammation) of bones and soft tissues (rheumatoid) arthritis, bursitis, tendosynovitis)
• Muscle pain (neck, l / s part spine, shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee, ankle)
• Sprains (distortion), sprains (distension), as in others sports injuries

Therapeutic effect of the laser:

• Analgesic effect (pain reduction)
• Antiedematous (swelling reduction)
• Anti-inflammatory (reducing inflammation)
• Reduction of spasm (spasm)
• Accelerates the healing process of tissues (bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons)
• Stimulates tissue regeneration

Contraindications:

• Laser radiation in the eye area
• Uterine area during pregnancy and cycle
• Landscape of endocrine glands
• Active and suspected neoplasms
• Apply at the level of the thyroid gland
• Application at the level of the testicles
