Description
- Diathermy is the physical therapy with the most powerful analgesic, anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxant effect, allowing us to obtain outstanding results in all types of musculoskeletal and therefore sports pathologies.
- This course will provide you with sufficient knowledge to strategically choose, within the therapeutic framework, the frequency, power, technique and duration of the treatment to obtain an optimal result, both in pathologies in an acute and chronic state.
- Practical exercises among students with different diathermy equipment, applying manual, automatic and myofascial electrodes.
What you will learn
- All the fundamental theoretical aspects of Diathermy , in order to be able to perform treatments with maximum effectiveness and profitability.
- Be able to develop various therapeutic strategies , optimizing parameters such as: Frequency, Technique (capacitive/resistive), Mode (continuous/pulsed), Intensity and Time.
- Different forms of application of Diathermy and its combination with manual therapy, hands-free technique and Instrumented Myofascials.
- Treatment of sports pathologies such as: tendinopathies, fasciitis, muscle overloads, muscle and tendon ruptures, bone edema, chondropathies and enthesopathies.
