<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 />

PAGE 8<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.

THERAPY ICON<br />

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 />
