RADIOFREQUENCY DIATHERMY IN THE TREATMENT OF ACUTE AND CHRONIC PAIN - IN PERSON - APRIL 5, 2025

DESCRIPTION:
• In this training you will obtain sufficient knowledge to strategically select, within the therapeutic framework, the frequency, potency, technique and duration of the treatment to obtain an optimal result, in pathologies that present with pain in both acute and chronic states.
• Diathermy is the non-invasive physical therapy with the most powerful analgesic, anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxant effect. This set of widely demonstrated effects allows us to go beyond the simple reduction of pain, facilitating the regeneration of affected tissues, when this is still possible and allowing us to obtain outstanding results in all types of pathologies.
• Viewing videos where you can see the correct way to use diathermy, applying standard manual, convex, automatic and myofascial electrodes.
