Electrotherapy

Electrotherapy

Depending on the stage of healing and the nature of an injury your physiotherapist may recommend using an electrophysical modality as part of your treatment. Common modalities we use in our clinics are Ultrasound, NMES ( Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation), IFC (Interferential Current), or TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation).

These modalities can increase blood flow to the area, relax tissues and muscles, modulate pain levels, and encourage muscle activation. The goal of using modalities in a physiotherapy treatment plan it to enable a better healing environment allowing you to resume exercises and activity quicker.
