Diathermy

Electrical Muscle Stimulation
(EMS) is the concept whereby electric impulses are used to contract muscles . EMS has been used in the field of medicine as therapy for muscle atrophy, as well as in many other conditions [1]. There has also been use in the field of personal care (where it is also known as electronic muscle toning) to help tone muscles, decrease body fat, as well as an adjunct to weight training.

 

Massage Therapy

A process of manual manipulation of the body’s muscular and soft tissue structure through a variety of techniques ranging form relaxation to clinical and therapeutic applications. The benefits are increased range of motion and flexibility, stress reduction, and improved circulation helping to achieve an overall feeling of well-being.

Ultra Sound Therapy

Ultrasound therapy uses high-energy sound waves (those above the range we hear) to help ease painful joints and muscles. Ultrasound treatment is done by a physical therapist or occupational therapist who guides the waves into the body from the head of a ultrasound machine.

 

Heat Therapy

Heat Therapy relaxes muscles, relieves pain and accelerates healing by increasing blood flow to a targeted area.
