My friend once
had a severe bike accident and badly injured his neck. He
had to be hospitalized and when he recovered, he was referred to a
physiotherapist. He needed almost two months of physiotherapy. However, even
after two months, it did not help him much. Even after physiotherapy, he did
not completely recover. He suffered from neck pains and neck stiffness. During
some internet research, I came across interferential therapy. It seemed
to be promising and it works really well along with physiotherapy and hence I
told my friend to get it.
Since he had to
get to work and then home, he decided to by the electrotherapy equipment so
that he can get the therapy at home during his spare time. The equipment was
ordered online. The device came with a manual that explained how to use the
entire device. After a few days of using it, my friend was definitely better. Also,
he is using it on regular basis. There are no side effects or discomfort. His
joint pains are less too.
My friend took
the interferential therapy TENS http://www.interferentialtherapy.co.in/interferential-therapy-tens-machine.php treatment to be precise. This actually
helps to reduce pain a lot. This is done by the application of low frequency
currents. There are four electrodes using which two currents are passed. These
two frequencies interfere with each other to provide another resultant
frequency that acts in the area of pain. This can stimulate nerves, relax
muscles and eases pains, especially joint pains. This is also known to increase
blood flow.
