Physiotherapy is the direction of clinical medicine, which studies the medical impact of natural and artificial factors. Physiotherapy is one of the oldest treatment and preventive directions in medicine, which covers many aspects. Active impact of physiotherapy on the human body allows reduction and in some cases – total removal of medication.
Physiotherapy awakens internal reserves of the body, accelerated regeneration mechanisms, and reverses inflammatory processes. Thus, physiotherapy is the safest and the most widely spread direction of treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention, counting many years of experience of treatment.
Clinic "Harmonia" has modern equipment, which allows the performance of necessary and the most demanded physiotherapeutic procedures, including miostimulation – impacting muscles with weak impulse current, causing their contraction. Strengthening of muscles is achieved without active physical exercise, vitality is restored, metabolism is improved, excessive muscular tension is relieved.
TENS-therapy – transcutaneous (through the skin) electric neurostimulation, used for the restoration of conductivity of the damaged neural fibers, restoration of contractibility of muscles, elimination of neurological or post-trauma pain.
Magnetotherapy – is based on the impact of magnetic fields on tissues. It stimulates blood circulation, facilitates the reduction of oedema, inflammation, feeling of pain. It is used in post-trauma rehabilitation, as well as in the case of neurological and cardiac diseases.
Impulsive short-wave therapy – beneficial in the case of post-trauma condition (strain, dislocation, injury, fracture, hematoma, bruise, etc.), facilitates wound healing, is often used after surgery on jaws and extremities and in some types of inflammation. The above-mentioned therapy is also indicated for patients with a disorder of peripheral blood circulation. CMT-therapy (amplipulse therapy) is an electrotherapy method during which the patient is exposed to alternating modulated currents of low intensity. It improves circulation of lymph and blood; facilitates pain relief in the damaged area.
Ultrasonic therapy and Phonophoresis – a combination of ultrasonic impact with medicaments or cosmetics. Ultrasound enhances the effectiveness of the medication. The effect of many physiotherapeutic procedures persists for up to 6 months. The period of remission of chronic diseases prolongs. Different physiotherapeutic methods can be combined with each other, as well as other types of therapy (medication, medical massage, physical exercises, etc.).
