Electrotherapy for Effective Relief
At Denovo Physio & Rehab, we utilize advanced electrotherapy to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and improve muscle function. Our tailored approach ensures optimal results for various conditions, promoting lasting relief and enhanced well-being.
Advanced Pain Relief & Muscle Stimulation Therapies
Combination Therapy: Dual-Action Treatment
This is one of our most efficient and effective treatments for localized pain and trigger points. Combination Therapy simultaneously delivers the healing benefits of therapeutic ultrasound and the pain-relieving power of electrical stimulation through a single applicator.
How it Helps: We can pinpoint the exact source of your pain with pinpoint accuracy. The ultrasound warms and relaxes the tissue, while the electrical current blocks pain signals and eases muscle spasms in real-time. It’s two powerful treatments in one.
NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation): Retrains muscles that have “switched off” due to injury or surgery, preventing muscle wasting and rebuilding a stable foundation for your joints.
Russian Current: For intensive strengthening, we use this powerful and specialized protocol. It elicits deep, strong muscle contractions to rapidly build strength and endurance, making it a cornerstone of post-surgical rehab.
Shockwave Therapy: shockwave therapy is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to target chronic and stubborn injuries. It is one of the most effective modern treatments for conditions where the body’s healing process has stalled. It helps in restarts healing, increase blood flow, provides immediate pain relief, and breaks down scar tissue.
Advanced Electrotherapy for Pain Relief
At our clinic, we use advanced electrotherapy to provide powerful, drug-free pain relief. By sending gentle electrical signals into your tissues, we can block pain and relax muscles. Our two primary tools for this are TENS and IFC.
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation)
TENS is ideal for focused, surface-level pain relief.
How It Helps: Uses a mild electrical current to block pain signals from reaching the brain (known as the Gate Control Theory). It essentially “closes the gate” on pain.
Best For: Targeting specific, localized areas like a muscle knot, tennis elbow, or post-surgical pain near an incision.
IFC (Interferential Current)
IFC is designed for deeper, more widespread pain.
How It Helps: Uses two intersecting electrical currents that penetrate deeper into tissue than TENS. This allows us to relieve pain, reduce muscle spasms, and decrease swelling in larger areas.
Best For: Treating deep, diffuse pain in areas like the entire low back, shoulder, or knee joint. Many patients find the sensation smoother and more comfortable
