How to perform electrophoresis (for example) of the knee? Electrophoresis is a treatment method that uses electrical impulses to inject medicinal substances into the body. This method can be used to treat various diseases, including diseases of the knee joint. To perform electrophoresis of the knee, it is necessary to perform the following steps:
-
Prepare the equipment: it is necessary to purchase an electrophoresis apparatus and electrodes .
-
Prepare the medical solution: the medicine that will be introduced into the body through electrophoresis sometimes diluted in distilled water or saline.
-
Prepare the skin: Before starting the procedure, the skin of the knee must be cleaned and all metal objects such as watches or jewelry must be removed.
-
Apply gel: a special gel is applied to the surface of the skin of the knee, which helps conduct electric current better. Attach electrodes: gel-coated electrodes are applied to the knee joint area.
-
One electrode is placed on one side the patella, and the other - on opposite side.
-
Adjust parameters: in MESOFORM THERAPEUTIC, parameters are: mode, intensity and duration. Adjust according to instruction or to the doctor's recommendations.
-
Turn on the machine: after setting the parameters, the machine will turn on and the procedure will begin.
Medicinal substances are introduced into the body through an electric current that flows through the electrodes.
The duration of the procedure and its frequency depend on condition to be treated and the doctor's recommendations. Even though electrophoresis is very healthy treatment, we would strongly advise before electrophoresis treatments consult qualified medical specialist.
