Although the name may sound intensive, Low- and Medium-Frequency Electrotherapy is a gentle and comfortable treatment. At SPA VILNIUS Anykščiai, the therapy uses low- and medium-frequency electrical impulses that are similar to the body’s natural electrical signals, allowing the treatment to work both gently and effectively. This physical therapy modality helps relieve discomfort, relax muscles and support overall wellbeing.
During the treatment, carefully controlled electrical impulses are applied to the selected area of the body. They help stimulate blood circulation, improve the delivery of nutrients to the tissues and support the body’s natural response to inflammation. The therapy also has a positive effect on the autonomic nervous system, muscle tone and the body’s natural recovery processes, making it a valuable part of rehabilitation programmes.
