FAQ
Short Wave Diathermy (SWD) is a therapeutic technique that uses electromagnetic energy to generate deep heating within body tissues. This deep heating promotes pain relief and enhances the healing process of muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
SWD is important because it provides effective pain relief, reduces muscle spasms, improves joint stiffness, and promotes the healing of soft tissue injuries. It enhances circulation and helps reduce inflammation, aiding in faster recovery.
Individuals experiencing muscle spasms, joint stiffness, soft tissue injuries, chronic pain, and inflammatory conditions can benefit from Short Wave Diathermy. It’s particularly useful for those seeking deep tissue healing and improved mobility.
During an SWD session at MoveFree Physio, our therapists conduct a comprehensive evaluation to determine your suitability for the treatment. Electromagnetic energy is then applied to the affected area to produce deep heating, promoting pain relief and healing. Each treatment plan is personalized for optimal recovery.
Short Wave Diathermy is a non-invasive procedure and is generally not painful. Patients may feel a gentle warming sensation as the electromagnetic energy penetrates the tissues, but it is designed to be comfortable and effective.
The duration of an SWD session typically ranges from 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the specific area being treated and the severity of the condition. Your therapist will determine the appropriate length of each session based on your individual needs.
The potential outcomes of SWD include pain relief, reduced muscle spasms and joint stiffness, improved circulation, enhanced mobility, and accelerated healing of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It aims to provide comprehensive relief and support recovery.
The frequency of SWD sessions depends on individual needs and the nature of the condition being treated. Your therapist will recommend an appropriate schedule, which may involve multiple sessions per week initially, followed by maintenance sessions as needed.
