Treatment
Complementary treatments in Crimmitschau
Sling table, electrotherapy, ultrasound and heat therapy with fango and infrared light. Usually alongside physiotherapy or manual therapy.
What these treatments are used for.
These treatments rarely stand alone. On the sling table the body is suspended in slings so that joints and spine can move without carrying their own weight. Electrotherapy uses gentle electrical stimulation, for pain relief or to activate muscles that are slow to respond after an injury. Ultrasound works with sound waves in deeper tissue layers. Heat with fango or infrared light loosens the muscles and is often applied before the main treatment.
Common reasons
- Fango or infrared light before a treatment
- Sling table for back and hip complaints
- Electrical stimulation for pain relief
- Ultrasound on tendons and joints
- Muscle stimulation after a longer rest period
