Diadynamic Therapy

Diadynamotherapy is a form of electrotherapy that uses low-frequency electric current to treat various musculoskeletal conditions. This current helps stimulate muscles, reduce pain, improve blood circulation, and promote healing. At Dobrobut Medical Network, experienced specialists use this advanced therapy to enhance patient recovery, ensuring a comprehensive approach to treatment and rehabilitation.

When to Consult a Doctor

Diadynamotherapy can be beneficial if you experience the following symptoms:

  • Persistent muscle pain or tension.
  • Swelling or inflammation in joints or soft tissues.
  • Reduced mobility or stiffness in joints.
  • Chronic pain, such as that resulting from arthritis.
  • Poor circulation, leading to numbness or cold extremities.
  • Slow healing of injuries.

A timely consultation with a specialist at Dobrobut Medical Network will help determine if this therapy is suitable for you and ensure timely intervention.

Indications and Contraindications

Indications for Diadynamotherapy:

  • Chronic pain in any part of the musculoskeletal system.
  • Joint diseases, such as arthritis and osteoarthritis.
  • Post-traumatic and postoperative pain.
  • Peripheral circulatory disorders.
  • Sports injuries.
  • Neurological disorders, such as neuropathies.

Contraindications:

  • Presence of pacemakers or other implanted electronic devices.
  • Pregnancy.
  • Malignant tumors.
  • Severe cardiovascular diseases.
  • Skin infections or open wounds at the treatment site.
  • Thrombophlebitis.

Preparation

Before undergoing diadynamotherapy, patients should avoid using lotions or creams on the treatment area, as they may interfere with electrode contact. Wear comfortable clothing that can be easily removed or lifted for access to the treatment area. During the initial consultation, medical staff will provide detailed instructions on how to prepare for the procedure.

Procedure

Diadynamotherapy sessions typically last between 15 and 30 minutes. Patients sit or lie comfortably on a treatment table, allowing easy access to the treatment area. Electrodes are carefully placed on the skin over the target area. The physiotherapist ensures optimal contact for effective current delivery and selects the appropriate frequency and mode of diadynamotherapy based on specific therapeutic goals.

The intensity of the impulses is gradually increased to a comfortable level as the patient becomes accustomed. Throughout the session, the therapist monitors the patient's response, adjusting the intensity as needed.

Recovery

After the procedure, patients can usually return to their daily activities immediately. Some may experience mild muscle fatigue or tingling in the treatment area, but these effects are temporary. It is recommended to maintain good hydration and follow the doctor's instructions. Regular sessions may be recommended for optimal results, with the frequency depending on the patient's condition.

Complications

Diadynamotherapy is a fairly safe procedure, but complications may occasionally occur, such as mild skin irritation at the electrode site, temporary discomfort during treatment, or muscle twitches.

The Dobrobut Medical Network team provides a comprehensive approach to treatment, rehabilitation, and quality of life assurance. Consultations can be scheduled via the website form or through the contact center phone numbers.
