Interferential Current (IFC) therapy is a form of electrotherapy that uses low-frequency electrical currents to stimulate healing and provide pain relief. It involves the application of electrical stimulation to the body through electrodes placed on the skin. Here’s how low-frequency electrical currents stimulate healing and pain relief in IFC therapy:
Overall, Interferential Current (IFC) therapy harnesses the therapeutic effects of low-frequency electrical currents to stimulate healing mechanisms, promote pain relief, reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and enhance overall tissue function. It is commonly used in physical therapy settings as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for various musculoskeletal conditions and injuries.
If you are presenting to the Clinic for the first time, your initial appointment will involve discussion about the nature of your complaint and your general health. Typically, the practitioner will then assess you, with the goal of identifying the cause of your symptoms, and then plan treatment with aim of improving your condition. Home exercise or self-treatment techniques may be discussed to facilitate a speedy resolution of your complaint(s).
Appointment length varies depending on the discipline and the practitioner. Initial assessment appointments are typically longer, to allow for history taking, assessment and possibly treatment. Subsequent appointments can often be scheduled for shorter durations, as determined between the patient and the practitioner.
