What is the difference between faradic and galvanic current?
Faradic is high frequency current(50-100Hz), where as galvanic is low frequency as compare to faradic faradic is of short duration ranging from 0.01 to 1ms, galvanic is of log duration of 30 min faradic is use to stimulate innervated muscles, and galvanic to denervated mucles faradic give mild pricking type of sensation where as galvanic give stabing type of sensation
What is faradic type current?
Faradic current is specifically designed to stimulate muscle contraction through the nerve pathways
How does a faradic machine work?
The faradic body treatment involves pads strapped to the area to be treated. The pads deliver a low faradic current into the skin and muscles stimulating nerve ending to provide a muscle contraction. The muscles will contract at regular intervals as set by one of the eight programmes.
Which current use for bell's palsy faradic or galvanic?
galvanic currents are use full to stimulate facial muscles, as faradic currents will cause fatigue as they are small muscles irrespective of innervation or denervation.
What aftercare advice is given after a faradic body electrical treatment?
The aftercare advice that is given after a faradic body electrical treatment is to drink plenty of water. It is the number one advice that is given after body electrical treatment.
What are the desired responses elicited by electrical stimulation treatment?
Subsensory stimulation, sensory stimulation, motor stimulation, noxious response.
What is Tele stimulation?
tele stimulation
What after care is given after faradic treatments?
Rest for the remainder of the day after treatment to avoid muscle fatigue. Drink loads of water to aid removal of lactic acid (waste product from muscles). Don't use faradic as a substitute for exercise, Do cardio and weight training to tone muscles. Eat healthily.
