Interference currents (Nemec’s currents)

Description

Interference currents are medium frequency currents (1 000-10 000 Hz). By crossing currents of different frequencies, we obtain a stimulating or relaxing effect on the muscles. We also achieve anti-pain, improvement of tissue trophism, as well as numbing effects.

Treatment time

8 - 15 min.

Frequency of treatments: every day or every other day

Number of treatments in series: 6 – 10

Indications

  • muscular atrophy or weakness
  • Cardiovascular disease (CVD)
  • neuralgia, neuritis, compression syndromes
  • spinal pains
  • degenerative diseases of the spine
  • degenerative joint diseases, rheumatism
  • injuries and inflammations of muscles, joints or tendons
  • inflammation in the shoulder joint area
  • problems with bone fusion
  • migraines
  • urinary incontinence

Contraindications

  • implanted pacemakers or other electrical devices
  • Implanted metal elements
  • Damaged or inflamed skin in the area to be treated, dermatological diseases
  • pregnancy
  • cancer
  • multiple sclerosis
  • Parkinson's disease
  • circulatory problems (related to blood clots, blockages, varicose veins, atherosclerosis)
  • acute infections, fever, sensory disturbances
  • difficulty communicating with the patient, psychiatric disorders

Kotz’ currents

Description

Kotz currents are medium frequency currents modulated into low frequency. The entire modulation process occurs in the apparatus and not in the patient's body. They induce precise contractions of the deeper muscle fibers. They reach deeper skin layers and nerve endings in muscles. Only properly innervated skeletal muscles are treated with currents. The method works very well in stimulating atrophied muscles (which atrophy due to immobilization) or in supporting the training of healthy muscles, e.g. of athletes.

Purpose of treatment

The aim of the treatment is often to increase strength and muscle mass and to support strength or endurance training. Please note that the currents should not be applied to partially or completely denervated muscles and are not used in the case of neuromuscular conduction disorders.

Tens Currents

Description

Electrostimulation with TENS currents is a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. It is a non-pharmacological and non-invasive method of pain treatment and thus without many side effects. TENS treatment does not directly treat the cause of pain, but significantly reduces pain sensations.

Treatment time

20 - 30 min

Frequency of treatments: every day

Number of treatments in series: depending on needs
Indications
  • rheumatoid arthritis
  • degenerative joint disease
  • neuropathies and radiculopathies
  • post-traumatic pain
  • post-operative pain (abdominal and thoracic surgeries, orthopedic, urological and other surgeries)
  • pain after amputations
  • pain after dental procedures
  • headache/migraine
  • pain, spasticity and dysfunction after stroke
  • painful menstruation
Contraindications
  • patients with pacemakers and other electronic implants
  • around metal implants
  • in situations of skin damage or threat of such damage or subcutaneous haemorrhages, as well as in case of dermatological diseases
  • in the area of:
        - active or suspected cancerous lesion
        - abdomen and pelvis in pregnant women
        - chest
        - anterior surface of neck and carotid arteries
  • in situations threatened by bleeding and exudates (e.g. after soft tissue damage)
  • in the region of the ossification nuclei in children
  • in patients with significant circulatory disturbances
  • in the event of illnesses with fever

Trabert Currents (Ultra Reiz)

Description

Trabert currents (UR) are unidirectional low frequency currents using rectangular pulses. Characteristic features of these currents are the duration of the pulse (2ms) and the interval time between given pulses (5ms). Electrodes are usually placed in the course of the spine and the current itself has strong analgesic properties.

Electro-stimulation

Description

Electro-stimulation is an electrotherapeutic procedure using low frequency pulsed currents. It is used to induce contraction of a muscle or a whole group of muscles, as well as in pain therapy and to improve tissue trophism..

Electro-stimulation is used primarily in physiotherapy, for damaged muscles, in paralysis and paresis of the flaccid type. This treatment is designed to prevent degeneration of the denervated muscle until the damaged peripheral nerve regenerates.

Contraindications ;

  • spastic muscle paralysis
  • purulent and inflammatory skin conditions
  • heart diseases
  • pacemaker
  • epilepsy
  • tumors and nodules of unknown origin, including the period indicated by the doctor after their  surgical removal

Galvanization

Description
Galvanization is a treatment that uses the beneficial effects of direct current. It is a safe and simple method. Direct current is very well conducted through blood, lymph, urine, muscle tissue, connective tissue, and cerebrospinal fluid.
Treatment time
5 – 20 min

Frequency of treatments: every day

Number of treatments in series: 10- 20
Indications
  • pain syndromes associated with inflammation of nerves, plexuses and nerve roots
  • disordered bone fusion
  • peripheral circulation disorders
  • flaccid paralysis
  • facial nerve palsies
  • ulcers, difficult-to-heal wounds
  • muscle overload
  • painful muscle tension
Contraindications
  • tumors
  • phlebitis
  • Risk of embolism
  • Implanted devices or pacemakers
  • Metal components in the treated area (e.g. anastomotic plates, nails, endoprostheses, etc.)

  • Advanced cardiovascular insufficiency
  • clots
  • difficult contact with the patient
  • Feverish states
  • sensory disturbances
  • thyroid diseases
  • spastic paralysis
  • pregnancy
  • active tuberculosis
  • purulent inflammation of the skin and soft tissues

Iontophoresis

Description
Iontophoresis is an electrotherapeutic procedure consisting of introducing a suitable medicine to the tissues by means of direct current. The medication is applied directly to the affected area - thanks to which iontophoresis achieves very good results. Additionally, it does not burden the digestive tract, stomach or liver.
Treatment time
10 - 20 min.
* in case of using histamine, adrenaline the time is 3 - 5 min

Frequency of treatments: every day / every other day

Number of treatments in series: 10 – 20
Indications for treatment
  • inflammation of the skin, soft tissues, minor joints
  • hard to heal ulcers
  • injuries

  • polyneuropathies
  • pain syndrome in the course of degenerative joint disease of the spine
  • arthrosis
  • impaired bone fusion
  • contractures
  • scars
  • Post-traumatic states of the joints and muscles
  • periarticular inflammations
  • neuralgia
  • myalgia
  • peripheral circulation disorders
  • pain in joints and spine
  • dilated blood vessels

  • feverish states
  • endoprostheses
  • atherosclerosis
  • metal in the path of current flow
  • purulent inflammation of the skin and soft tissues
  • eczemas and ulcers on the skin
  • malignant and benign tumors
  • sensory disorders
  • implanted pacemakers
  • clots
  • Threat of embolism
  • phlebitis
  • pregnancy
  • Open, unhealed wounds
  • acute acne with purulent lesions
  • bacterial, viral and fungal skin diseases
  • Possibility of allergy to drugs - used for surgery

Tenoliza - Electrostimulation Method

Description
Tonolysis is an electrotherapeutic procedure that reduces the tension of paralyzed muscles (e.g. after a stroke) by stimulating spastic muscles and restoring the physiological balance of excitation of muscle fibres. It works by stimulating the spastic muscles with a short, high intensity triangular pulse. This leads to a strong contraction and subsequent muscle relaxation during which antagonistic muscles are stimulated with a series of impulses. The resulting alternation of stimulated muscles leads to the restoration of the reflex mechanism and thus restoring their physiological balance.
