The LONGWAVE THERAPY is a microcomputer controlled unit for pain management therapy and is based on the Capacitor Field Method. The instrument uses a 1.0 MHz high frequency AC current where the patient’s own tissue is part of the capacitor. The equipment is only meant to be used by competent personnel in physiotherapy, rehabilitation or adjacent areas.
FEATURES
Longwave Diathermy treatment is based on Capacitor Field
It uses 1 MHz Alternating Current Frequency.
Longwave improves circulation, reduces pain and improves Mobility
Longwave gives penetration up to 4 cm
Raised temperature duration is for 45 minutes
Longwave will not produce any interference with other equipments as compares to SWD
Longwave will not have any irritation to bony parts as compared to UST
Most of the energy remains in high density tissue like ligaments & tendons
Solid State Design …..No valves or Crystals are used.
