Shortwave Diathermy 500 X 500 Product Description Shortwave Diathermy: Diathermy means “electrically induced heat” the use of a high-frequency electromagnetic field that induces heat on the different tissues for therapeutic purposes. Heat relaxes the muscle and can make the joints more supple so that they move better. The uptake of this deep heating energy promotes tissue repair and improves blood circulation as the electromagnetic energy is absorbed particularly by the tissue with low impedance. A part of the known effects of Diathermy with continuous mode, unit pulse mode will help with edema, wound healing, pain reduction & stimulation of the peripheral circulation.

Maximum heat is produced in the fat tissues, which results in the rise of temperature. The rise in temperature causes the relaxation of muscles and increases the efficiency of their action. This increases blood supply ensuring the optimum condition for muscle contraction. Therapeutic effects of short-wave diathermy are used for the treatment of both deep and superficial structures. Muscle Spasm: It is reduced by shortwave diathermy. This is helpful for pain relief. Inflammation: Chronic inflammation is resolved as a result of an increase in blood circulation, and aids the resorption of edema exudates. Infection: It increases the number of white blood cells and antibodies to fight the infective organism, thereby enabling the control of chronic infection. Delayed Healing: To promote the healing of open skin areas there is an increase in cutaneous circulation. Fibrosis: Heat increases the extensibility of fibrous tissues like tendons, joint capsules, and scars. This effect is produced by temperature increases within the therapeutic range.
