چکیده مقاله:

Diathermy is a therapeutic treatment most commonly prescribed for muscle and jointconditions edge. It uses a high-frequency electric current to stimulate heat generationwithin body tissues. Treating injuries with heat can increase blood flow and makeconnective tissue more flexible. Diathermy is used to treat the following conditions:arthritis, back pain, fibromyalgia, muscle spasms, myositis neuralgia, sprains andstrains tenosynovitis, tendonitis and bursitis. The three forms of diathermy employedby physical therapists are ultrasound, short wave and microwave. Surgical diathermyis usually better known as electro surgery. Diathermy used in surgery is of typicallytwo types: Monopolar and Bipolar. After a diathermy treatment, the affected area mayfeel more flexible. You may be able to participate in physical therapy behaviors morecomfortably and for a longer period of time.The increased blood flow to the affectedarea may induce healing and tissue repair.Key words: Diathermy, Physiotherapy, Heat
