ELECTROTHERAPY
Helps dealing with inaccessible problems in deep tissue and severe painElectrotherapy is an effective aid for muscular-, joint-, tendon- and nerve- problems. Horses are more receptive than humans are and therefore react much faster to electrotherapy. This treatment can be an effective complement when dealing with inaccessible problems in deep tissue or ex. severe pain. The currents I use are standard diadynamic currents (MF, DF, CP, LP), RS and iontophoresis (Galvanic current). Diadynamic currents increase the pain threshold and block the transmission of pain impulses to the brain, therefore good to use in pain relief therapy. In addition, they reduce oedema and accelerate the blood circulation in the treated area what also result in pain relief and muscle relaxation.
Increases the healing process of the bodyThe RS is a stimulus for the muscle to help strengthen and grow, especially good after an injury. Electrotherapy to the body also causes increased production of ATP levels in the area treated. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) are the molecules that store and distribute the energy in the body. By increasing the ATP levels it helps vitalise the cells thus increasing the healing process of the body.
