Interferential Current Therapy Support Care
Interferential Current Therapy (IFT) is a superior form of electrotherapy designed to support recovery from musculoskeletal discomfort and injuries. At Chiropractic Specialty Center® (CSC), we provide advanced IFT sessions customized for effective and faster recovery. Unlike conventional electrotherapy methods like TENS, IFT offers therapeutic benefits that actively stimulate healing while promoting relaxation and improved circulation.
The Therapeutic Benefits of Interferential Current Therapy
IFT works by delivering specialized electrical currents through targeted areas using carefully placed pads. These currents penetrate deeper into tissues compared to other forms of electrotherapy, ensuring better results. The benefits of IFT include:
- Muscle Relaxation: IFT calms tense muscles, reducing stiffness and promoting mobility.
- Reduced Swelling: By enhancing circulation, IFT reduces inflammation and swelling in the affected areas.
- Improved Blood Flow: Better blood flow accelerates the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues, supporting faster healing.
- Ache Relief: The therapy stimulates the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals such as endorphins and enkephalins, offering lasting relief.
IFT is particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from conditions such as slipped discs, neck and back discomfort, scoliosis, joint issues, and sports injuries.
Advanced Electrotherapy for Spine and Joint Conditions
IFT is widely regarded as the most effective type of electrotherapy, surpassing TENS and other electrical stimulation methods. While TENS units are portable and suitable for temporary relief, they lack the therapeutic properties necessary for tissue healing. IFT, on the other hand, promotes deeper penetration into the soft tissues, addressing underlying issues rather than just masking symptoms.
At CSC, our treatment sessions last around 20 minutes, allowing us to maximize the therapeutic effects of IFT. This extended treatment duration, combined with expert customization by our clinical team, ensures that your therapy is highly targeted and effective.
How IFT Differs from Other Electrotherapy Methods
IFT works by delivering intersecting currents that create a soothing yet effective stimulation within deeper layers of soft tissue. This results in:
- Deeper Tissue Penetration: Unlike surface-level stimulation from basic electrotherapy devices, IFT reaches deep tissue layers.
- Comprehensive Healing: IFT stimulates tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and enhances circulation, promoting long-term recovery.
- Relaxation and Comfort: Patients often describe the sensation as gentle and relaxing, making IFT a preferred method for soothing discomfort.
In contrast, TENS units are designed for superficial discomfort relief without therapeutic value. While TENS can help with temporary discomfort, it is not effective for addressing the root causes of musculoskeletal issues.
