Therapy and Treatment
Acetic acid iontophoresis is a non-invasive therapeutic procedure in which acetic acid (usually a 5% solution) is delivered into tissues using a low-voltage electric current. Negatively charged acetate ions are driven through the skin by the current, targeted to the area of calcification. The theoretical basis is that acetate ions react with otherwise insoluble calcium deposits (for example calcium carbonate), forming calcium acetate — a more soluble compound that can be carried away by the bloodstream…
The stability of the knee joint is provided by the leg muscles surrounding the joint, namely the thigh extensor muscles (front) and the hamstrings (back), as well as the calf muscles. If these muscles are strong, they hold the joint stably. This reduces the load on the bones forming the joint and lowers pain. There are other reasons to re-strengthen the muscles as well. Thus it is important after an injury and even before and after joint replacement surgery.
In this article I demonstrate how to regain the strength of the muscles around the knee joint.
Medical fitness is a healthcare service aimed at achieving improvements for patients through exercise. Within this framework, physicians, physiotherapists and medical fitness trainers work together to create an individualized training plan for the patient that takes into account the patient's specific health condition and goals. Medical fitness programs generally target conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, joint pain, overweight and stress.
Primarily important for movement and lymph therapists, as well as neurorehabilitation specialists, are the 3S sequential stimulation programs offered by Globus electrotherapy devices. This article covers these programs, their significance, and how to use them. About muscle stimulators in general: Muscle stimulators provide treatment for muscles. Devices intended for home use typically operate on 2 or 4 channels. Their characteristic is that they deliver the pulse on all channels at the same time and therefore the muscle contractions occur simultaneously [...].
Those who visit beauticians are probably familiar with various electrical treatments to improve facial skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles and crow's feet. You shouldn't expect much from a single such session, and few people can visit a beautician every day. I have good news! These beauty programs are already available in Globus manufacturer's devices. That way, a few-minute daily treatments performed at the comfort of your home can really deliver visible results. [...]
Sweat-free body shaping is a long-held wish. Muscle stimulation, one form of electrotherapy, can indeed help make the process easier and faster. In this article (not exhaustively) I present which body-shaping programs* are available in the Globus manufacturer’s electrostimulator devices. I also explain what you need to do to make sure it really helps. Body shaping and the electrostimulator
Feminine curves, firm skin, the smallest possible clothing size – in many people's imagination this is the ideal female figure, which women usually try to achieve, getting closer to that goal by trying new methods. Many newly launched products promise to help on this path, but unfortunately most “miracle remedies” fail to live up to expectations. In contrast, there are numerous technologies that can produce truly visible results in the field of beauty care (as well).
BEMER and magnetic field therapy (PEMF) are related but different. When the BEMER device is mentioned, you often hear that it uses "pulsed magnetic field therapy" – and that is essentially true. Still, anyone who digs a little deeper will quickly realise: BEMER is a specialized variant of the widely used pulsed magnetic field technology. Let’s see how they are similar and what makes BEMER different.
Until the beginning of the last century, the main obstacle to the development of surgery was the lack of a method that could provide pain relief and calm during longer operations. It is obviously impossible to perform precise surgery on a patient who is screaming in pain, convulsing and struggling. Modern anesthesiology — the science of anesthesia and sedation — provides all this. Anesthesia […]
The various electrotherapy treatments are very effective for many problems. They are excellent for pain relief (TENS, MENS), reducing inflammation (MCR), muscle treatment (EMS), abnormal sweating (iontophoresis), etc. The effectiveness of these treatments is influenced by one very simple factor: your body's water content. Let's see why hydration is important! A simple example of the role of water. You have probably had a houseplant at home. If you forgot to water it, it would first wilt and then die without water. However, if you water it from time to time, its stems and leaves remain supple and it will bloom or bear fruit. Water is just as important for your body, because
