Most commonly electrotherapy works by using electricity to deliver pain relief. Examples of different forms of electrotherapy include:
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) – Application of an electrical current by means of electrodes placed on your skin to stimulate the nerves beneath, triggering the onset of your body’s natural pain relieving mechanisms.
Ultrasound –This technique utilises high frequency sound waves to deliver energy to cells and improve tissue regeneration by basically boosting their function.
