IFT – Interferential Therapy
Interferential Therapy (IFT) is an advanced form of electrical stimulation used to relieve pain, reduce muscle spasms, and decrease swelling. It works by sending two medium-frequency electrical currents into the affected area, which intersect to produce a therapeutic low-frequency effect deep inside the tissues. This helps improve blood flow, reduce inflammation, and relax tense muscles without causing discomfort. IFT is commonly used for conditions like joint pain, back pain, sciatica, arthritis, and sports injuries.
TENS – Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
TENS is a small, portable electrotherapy device used for pain control. It sends mild electrical impulses through the skin that block pain signals from reaching the brain and stimulate the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals called endorphins. TENS is safe, non-invasive, and widely used for chronic conditions such as neck pain, back pain, nerve problems, and postoperative pain. Patients can often use TENS at home under a therapist’s guidance.
IR – Infrared Therapy
Infrared Therapy uses infrared light waves to provide deep heat to muscles, joints, and tissues. This heat increases blood circulation, relaxes tight muscles, and promotes faster healing. It is especially helpful for chronic pain, muscle stiffness, arthritis, and soft tissue injuries. Infrared therapy is comfortable and soothing, often used before stretching or manual therapy to warm the tissues for better outcomes.
Hot Pack Therapy
Hot packs are used to provide moist heat to painful or tight areas of the body. They help relax muscles, reduce stiffness, reduce pain, and improve joint mobility by increasing blood flow. Moist heat penetrates more deeply than dry heat, making it especially helpful in conditions like muscle spasms, arthritis, chronic back pain, and sprains or strains. Heat therapy is often used at the beginning of treatment sessions to prepare the tissues for exercise or manual therapy.
Hydrocollator Machine (Hot Water Pack Unit)
A hydrocollator machine is a special device used to heat and store hot packs in controlled water temperature. The machine keeps the packs at the ideal therapeutic heat level, ensuring safe and effective moist heat application. Hydrocollator treatment helps reduce muscle tightness, improves flexibility, and promotes tissue healing. It is commonly used for neck, shoulder, back, and joint pain before active therapy sessions.
MS – Muscle Stimulator (Electrical Muscle Stimulation)
A Muscle Stimulator (MS) is used to activate weak or inactive muscles by delivering controlled electrical pulses. This helps improve muscle strength, re-educate muscles after injury or surgery, improve circulation, and prevent muscle wasting in patients with limited movement. It is widely used in stroke rehabilitation, knee injuries, muscle weakness, post-fracture conditions, and after orthopedic surgeries. MS helps patients regain muscle function more effectively and quickly.
Wax Bath Therapy
Wax Bath Therapy uses melted paraffin wax to apply heat to hands, feet, or joints. The warm wax increases circulation, softens tissues, reduces stiffness, and provides long-lasting pain relief. It is especially beneficial for arthritis, chronic joint pain, and hand-related conditions. Patients often feel instant relaxation, and the therapy makes joints more flexible before exercises or manual treatment. It is a comfortable and commonly used therapy in physiotherapy clinics.
Laser Therapy
Laser Therapy uses focused light energy to stimulate healing at the cellular level. It reduces inflammation, decreases pain, accelerates tissue repair, and improves blood circulation. Because laser light penetrates deeply without heat or discomfort, it is helpful in tendonitis, nerve pain, muscle injuries, sprains, arthritis, and post-surgical rehabilitation. Laser therapy promotes faster recovery and is widely used in modern physiotherapy for both acute and chronic conditions.
