Diagnostic Indications for the Use Of Interferential Therapy
Interferential therapy has been around for more than 50 years, being used historically for many different pathologies. Many of the past uses were administered by licensed medical personnel and the most novel approaches to new disease pathologies were often done in Europe. The physiotherapy profession in Europe was instrumental in finding ways interferential could be used for existing illnesses.
Some of the applications are:
1. Treatment of circulatory disorders
2. Edema reduction
3. Constipation
4. Urinary incontinency
5. Wound healing
6. Healing broken bones ( non-union fractures)
7. Stopping muscle spasms
8. Chronic as well as acute pain
9. Asthma
10. Increased blood flow
12. Peripheral Neuropathy
Other new, novel treatments will be discovered now that a truly portable, interferential home device is available that can duplicate cinical results and provide patients with the opportunity for multiple at home treatments. Prior to now the treatments were generally done in a clinic with the patient arriving for each treatment. This method of treatment was dependent upon the patient and his or her compliance with clinic scheduling etc. More uses of interferential will soon be discovered as more patients can treat at home frequently and for longer treatment times.
