Electrotherapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses low-voltage electrical currents to stimulate muscles, nerves, and tissues — helping the body recover from injury, reduce pain, and improve physical function.
At Nu Physical, we use modern electrotherapy techniques, including TENS, NMES, and IFC, as part of a personalized rehab approach to speed up healing, manage chronic pain, and optimize neuromuscular recovery.
How Does Electrotherapy Work?
Your therapist will apply small electrodes to the skin over the area needing treatment. These electrodes are connected to a device that delivers controlled electrical impulses. These currents:
Stimulate nerve endings and block pain signals
Improve blood flow and reduce inflammation
Trigger muscle contractions to restore strength
Encourage the release of endorphins (natural painkillers)
The intensity, frequency, and duration are carefully adjusted to meet your comfort and treatment goals.
Session Time: 10–30 minutes Sensation: Gentle tingling or pulsing, non-painful and relaxing
1️⃣ Assessment
Your physical therapist will evaluate your symptoms, diagnosis, and goals to choose the right electrotherapy type.
2️⃣ Application
Electrodes are placed on the skin and connected to a therapy unit. You’ll feel a mild tingling or rhythmic muscle movement — no needles, no injections.
3️⃣ Integration
Electrotherapy is often combined with manual therapy, exercise, or mobility drills for enhanced results.
Is Electrotherapy Safe?
Yes — when administered by a trained professional. At Nu Physical, our therapists follow strict safety guidelines and tailor treatment intensity to your tolerance.
Electrotherapy may not be suitable for:
Pregnant individuals
Patients with pacemakers or metal implants in the area
People with epilepsy or specific cardiac conditions
We’ll conduct a full screening to ensure safety before treatment.
