Diathermy

Diathermy is a therapeutic medical technique that involves the use of high-frequency electromagnetic currents to generate heat within tissues. This heat is applied to specific areas of the body to promote blood circulation, relax muscles, and provide pain relief. Diathermy can be administered in different forms, including capacitive and inductive methods, and is commonly used in physical therapy and rehabilitation settings to address conditions such as muscle spasms, joint stiffness, and certain types of chronic pain.
