Following an accident, a twist or a fall,
muscles often go into protective spasm. Left untreated this cramping process
continues and often increases and can lead to either greater discomfort in the future
or even complete loss of function. This muscle spasm also
contributes to perpetuating spinal misalignment (vertebral subluxation).
Interferential Electro-Therapy
introduces tiny electrical
impulses into the tissues in the vicinity of
the imbalance or injury. When these waves intersect below the surface of the
skin, you get very low frequency stimulation, thus encouraging the body
to secrete endorphins and other natural painkillers to help
relieve
pain.
Interferential Electro-Therapy
breaks up the spasm, thereby reducing pain and restoring
normal function. This therapy provides massage to spastic muscles
and and also provides an anti-inflammatory treatment to the specific
area. The combination of electrical stimulation and spinal
adjustments works hand in hand to accelerate the healing process. |
