<strong>Basic</strong>-Line units feature an appealing design, outstanding quality<br />
and excellent user-friend<strong>line</strong>ss. Compact construction of the devices,<br />
some of which are available in battery-powered versions,<br />
simplifies transport for mobile applications.<br />
You can quickly and safely navigate within the large illuminated<br />
LCD display using PHYSIOMED’s unique one-button operation,<br />
which has proven itself over more than 15 years. To begin therapy,<br />
simply select the desired application directly from the top<br />
menu level or select one of the numerous treatment suggestions<br />
from the extensive alphabetised treatment index. After you have<br />
selected the indication and confirmed your selection, you are<br />
then directed to the desired therapy including the recommended<br />
dosage and graphic of the region to be treated.<br />
You also have easy access to individually adjustable programs or<br />
even pre-programmed program sequences. Electrotherapy allows<br />
the use of “potpourris”, which sequence up to three different<br />
currents per memory location and thus ensure a varied and<br />
time-saving treatment.<br />
The quality and safety of our accessories are also a top priority.<br />
For example, the contact surfaces of our ultrasonic transducers<br />
are made of biocompatible titanium (and not aluminium, which<br />
is cheaper and more common) to prevent allergic reactions. Another<br />
example is our long-lasting plate or adhesive electrodes<br />
with excellent conductivity. Our large selection of special accessories<br />
for all professional physical therapy needs have proven<br />
themselves in practice over many years, and people enjoy using<br />
them.<br />
Another advantage is that <strong>Basic</strong>-Line electrotherapy, ultrasound<br />
and vacuum units are all compatible with one another. Missing<br />
therapy forms can be easily added at any time to a representative<br />
mobile therapy station. The stable Universal trolleys with their<br />
timeless design accommodate any desired combination of equipment<br />
with rapid access.

the patient and also enables the use of intentional exercises.<br />
For ultrasound therapy, you have a choice of two ergonomic<br />
transducers (2.5 cm 2 and 5 cm 2 ), which are designed for the<br />
application of 1 and 3 MHz. The biocompatible and extremely<br />
durable titanium surface offers maximum safety and reliability<br />
as far as energy output is concerned. The transducers are watertight<br />
and therefore also suitable for subaqueous treatment. You<br />
can choose between continuous or pulsed energy output (4<br />
duty cycles [1:10, 1:5, 1:3, 2:5]). The visual and optional acoustic<br />
coupling controls ensure efficient treatment. If desired the<br />
therapy timing can run independently of coupling controls.<br />

THERAPY ICON<br />
Electrotherapy<br />
Electrotherapy is an important element of physical therapy. Current<br />
stimulation will treat the tissue via electrodes (plate electrodes,<br />
adhesive electrodes, vacuum electrodes, or special electrodes<br />
such as punctiform or pad electrodes) on the selected<br />
areas. Depending on the current mode and the selection of<br />
parameters (i. e. impulse form, impulse duration, pause time,<br />
frequency, intensity) the stimulation current can have significant<br />
effects in the following areas of treatment:<br />
» Pain reduction<br />
» Stimulation of blood circulation and trophic enhancement<br />
» Nerve stimulation, for example the training of innervation and<br />
treatment of paralysis<br />
» Muscle stimulation to build up/maintain muscles<br />
» Muscular relaxation<br />
» Iontophoresis<br />
The different electrotherapy currents can be classified according<br />
to their generation and specific method of treating the tissue:<br />
» Medium-frequency current: this is an alternating current, derived<br />
from superposition of a basic frequency (2–9.5 KHz) and a<br />
modulation frequency (0-250 Hz). This superposition takes place<br />
within the equipment for AMF current (amplitude modulated<br />
medium frequency current) as well as for medium-frequency currents<br />
for muscle stimulation (e. g. KOTS). The previously modulated<br />
current can therefore be applied via only two electrodes on<br />
the patient. With modulated interference current IFM as well as<br />
with classic interference current IF, however, superposition deliv-<br />

”Clean currents“ for better therapy results<br />
Quite a few electrotherapy instruments today no longer emit<br />
stimulation currents in the form described in teaching manuals,<br />
and on which efficient electrotherapy is proven to be based.<br />
Instead of this – and in many cases due to cost savings – similar,<br />
but not identical, curve forms are used. Nobody knows<br />
exactly whether these cause the desired effects in tissue in<br />
the same way as the original currents. Instead of medium frequency<br />
currents, for example, low frequency ones are generated,<br />
and vice versa. In a direct comparison, the difference<br />
between ”genuine“ and ”similar“ currents can often be felt,<br />
but it only becomes visible when the current curves are viewed<br />
ers both frequencies when it reaches the tissue of the patient. For<br />
this reason, in this case it is essential to always apply four electrodes<br />
for treatment. The high therapeutic effectiveness of the<br />
medium-frequency current is achieved by minimal skin irritation<br />
with broad penetration and is more acceptable for patients.<br />
» Low-frequency current: an impulse current with frequencies<br />
under 1000 Hz is classified as a low-frequency current. The total<br />
range of application is covered by the different low-frequency<br />
currents DF, MF, CP, LP (diadynamic currents), UR (ultrastimulation<br />
current), HV (high voltage current), FaS (faradic current),<br />
TENS (mono- or biphasic rectangular impulse), MENS (variable<br />
microcurrent), IG 30 and IG 50 (impulse galvanisation), FM (frequency-modulated<br />
current), STOCH (stochastic current) and T/R<br />
(exponential current). In contrast to medium-frequency current,<br />
low frequency current can also be used for treatment of peripheral<br />
paralysis.<br />
» Galvanic current (G) is a direct current that ensures that a constant<br />
energy current flows through the tissue. Galvanic current is<br />
primarily used for stimulation of blood flow and pain reduction<br />
as well as iontophoresis (diffusion of medicaments into the tissue<br />
with the aid of the current).<br />
For more detailed information, please read our comprehensive<br />
brochure “Short introduction to electrotherapy”, which contains<br />
many practical examples.<br />
on an oscilloscope. Galvanic currents with spikes can be found,<br />
distorted sinusoidal curves instead of harmonic curves, or even<br />
deformed envelopes of diadynamic currents.<br />
PHYSIOMED distances itself firmly from this trend of compromising<br />
therapeutic success only for the sake of maximizing<br />
profits. PHYSIOMED instruments therefore only supply „clean“<br />
currents. This also explains the often heard opinion of competent<br />
electrotherapy users, that despite using the same parameters,<br />
they obtain better therapeutic results with PHYSIOMED<br />
instruments than with other stimulation current instruments.

THERAPY ICON<br />
Ultrasound therapy<br />
Ultrasound therapy, along with electrotherapy, is one of the popular<br />
treatment forms of physical therapy. Therapeutic ultrasound<br />
is used at a frequency of 1 MHz or 3 MHz, as continuous output<br />
or pulsed output in different duty cycles. Ultrasound therapy<br />
is classified as mechanical thermal therapy due to its complex<br />
effects. Depending on therapy parameters (therapy frequency,<br />
output type, dose, therapy duration and mode), the emphasis is<br />
on a thermal effect that results from ultrasound therapy (thermal<br />
growth and reflection from tissue barriers such as bones or joints)<br />
or a micromassage in the treated tissue segments. The effects of<br />
ultrasound therapy can be summarised as follows:<br />
» Hyperemisation<br />
» Acceleration of metabolic function<br />
(microcirculation, diffusion processes)<br />
» Increasing the tensibility of connective tissue structures<br />
(collagen fibres)<br />
» Alleviation of pain<br />
» Muscular deionisation and spasm resolution<br />
» Acceleration of the healing process<br />
» Stimulation of fracture healing<br />
PAGE 14<br />
Simultaneous therapy<br />
Since ultrasound is reflected by air, you should use a coupling<br />
agent (ultrasound gel) or connect under water (subaqueous) for<br />
optimum conduction of the ultrasonic waves from the transducer<br />
to the tissue.<br />
For more detailed information, please read our comprehensive<br />
brochure “Short introduction to ultrasound therapy”, which contains<br />
many practical examples.<br />
The transducer acts as the electrical stimulation cathode and a plate or vacuum electrode acts<br />
as the anode in simultaneous therapy using electrotherapy and ultrasound (with a cumulative<br />
therapy effect). Simultaneous therapy is available using combination units as well as by combining<br />
any electrotherapy unit with the related ultrasound therapy unit. Simultaneous therapy is used<br />
particularly in pain therapy. Current selection combined with the ultrasound parameters ensure a<br />
wide variety of treatment combinations.

Vacuum application<br />
Vacuum application devices make it possible for you to apply stimulation currents via vacuum electrodes.<br />
The vacuum electrodes are gently attached to the patient‘s skin with the help of adjustable<br />
suction. This method is especially suited for attaching electrodes to the buttocks, since there is no<br />
need for complicated fixation aids.<br />
The suction action and the associated stimulation of blood flow result in improved conduction<br />
properties for the currents. With smooth adjustments, pulsing waves of suction allow the therapy<br />
to stimulate even more.<br />
Thanks to special plungers (Luran suctionwave cups), vacuum application units are also suited for<br />
manual suction wave massage, which can also be performed on its own without being combined<br />
with a electrotherapy unit unit.<br />

THERAPY ICON<br />
Laser therapy<br />
Laser therapy is used in various therapy fields. In contrast to hard lasers used in surgery (30 W and<br />
higher), laser therapists work with the athermal, therapeutic, low level laser (less than 700 mW).<br />
As for physical therapy, the infrared diode laser is now the common means of treatment. This laser<br />
excels over other types of lasers in penetration depth, bio-stimulation effect and ease of handling.<br />
The classification of laser therapy as light therapy is based on its various complex photobiological<br />
effects. These effects can be summarised as follows:<br />
» Enhanced cellular energy balance<br />
» Antiphlogistic effect<br />
» Antiedematous effect<br />
» Microcirculatory effect<br />
» Tissue reparative effect<br />
» Analgesic effect<br />
You can choose between two forms of application according to the indication. An ultra-precise<br />
laser pen is used to treat tender points, trigger points, paraspinal points etc. if laser application on<br />
a very small area (less than 1 cm²) is required. The laser pen has also become the treatment method<br />
of choice for soft application, i.e. laser puncture, which, like needle acupuncture, makes use of the<br />
interrelation between skin and inner organs. For treatment of larger areas of skin in cases of trauma,<br />
joint inflammation or dermatological indications, we recommend using the laser shower, which can<br />
be moved over/along the treatment area if necessary. The laser comb is especially well suited for<br />
treatment of regions with body hair, such as the scalp.<br />
For more detailed information please read our comprehensive brochure “Short introduction to laser<br />
therapy”, which contains many practical examples.<br />
