Short wave Diathermy SWD | part 2 | electrotherapy | physiotherapy.
Short wave diathermy (SWD) is a form of physical therapy that uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves to generate heat deep within body tissues. This heat can help to reduce pain, improve blood flow, and promote healing. SWD is commonly used to treat conditions such as muscle sprains, arthritis, bursitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. The therapy involves placing electrodes or applicators near the affected area, allowing the electromagnetic waves to penetrate and heat the tissues.
