Therapeutic Effects Of A Genuine Interferential Current Therapy
Interferential Current Therapy (IFT) is speiclized type of electrotherapy or electrical stimulation used in treating spine and joint conditions. Specialized pads are used to render treatments through IFT. Our physiotherapists will place the pads in a manner that they surround the painful or injured area.
Here is a list of benefits you can expect:
- Relaxes muscles
- Decreases swelling

Also, it is ideal for stimulating the release of the patients‘ pain and injury fighting chemicals (endorphins and enkephalins). So, by using interferential current therapy, we will be able to get you better faster. IFT treatment or treatments through electrical stimulation therapy can help patients with slip-disc, joint pain, neck pain, back pain, scoliosis and sports injuries.

Electrotherapy & Interferential Current Therapy (IFT)
Interferential Current Therapy (IFT) is the best therapeutic form of electrotherapy. It is superior to the tens therapy when it comes to recovery from soft tissue injuries. Treatments via IFT is safe, soothing, and effective. Therapy usually takes 10-15 minutes, depending on the patient. However, in our center, the physiotherapy treatment time for Interferential current therapy is about 20 minutes. We use a longer therapy time to enhance the therapeutic benefits of each session. Keep in mind; that longer times are more beneficial only if your condition warrants it. You will need a thorough assessment by one of our clinical Doctors of Chiropractic, before getting this treatment procedure included in your treatment plan
The simplest explanation for Interferential Current Therapy is that it is a form of electrical stimulation. There are many types of electrical stimulation current therapy methods; none has the beneficial impact Interferential Current has on the tissue. So, centers that use “little-bitty-devices” do a little bit of good if any when it comes to soft tissue healing. Put, the small bitty devices are called tens units, and they have no healing power at all. Tens units are microcurrent stimulators designed to decrease pain. But, have no therapeutic or healing functions at all. Therefore, having treatments from a valid interferential current device is significantly different compared to other forms of electrotherapy. Furthermore, some centers do not fully grasp the clinical benefits of electrotherapy, as provided by Interferential Current Therapy. What is even worse is that some are also incapable of using this device correctly.
