Electro Massage Therapy In Orlando

Electro Massage Therapy uses an electrical machine that delivers electrical impulses to a patient’s body. This stimulation is done in order to promote and facilitate muscle healing and tissue regeneration. Not only is electrotherapy a popular modality in physical therapy, but can also be used by other rehabilitation practitioners because it has several numerous therapeutic benefits.

The use of Electro Massage Therapy has been supported by the American Physical Therapy Association because it has shown to provide the following:

• Relaxation of muscle spasms
• Prevention and cessation of muscular atrophy due to disuse
• Improved local blood circulation and flow
• Re-education of muscles using targeted stimulation
• Preserve and improve range of motion
• Management and reduction of pain (chronic, post-traumatic, and post-surgical acute)
• Prevention of deep vein thrombosis post-surgery
• Facilitation of wound healing
• Improvement in the effectiveness in delivering prescription drugs-electromotive drug administration (EMDA)

How Does Electro Massage Therapy Work?

Electrotherapeutic devices can offer different therapeutic waveforms. An electrical stimulation device includes electrodes that are attached to the treatment area and when activated, the electrical energy of the device causes the muscles to contract. This contraction imitates the body’s natural movement during activity and can prevent muscular atrophy.

The most common waveforms found in electrical stimulation are: TENS, Russian, Interferential, Premodulated, Biphasic, High Voltage and Microcurrent. Each waveform has its own therapeutic benefits, so many devices may offer the practitioner multiple waveforms in order to offer them the most use across diverse patient.
