Microwave (SHF) therapy is a physiotherapy method in which super-high-frequency electromagnetic waves act on the tissues. It is painless and has a deep warming, anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect.
The microwaves warm the tissues at depth, improving their blood supply and metabolism.
Microwave therapy speeds up tissue repair and helps reduce inflammation. It is used for joint and spine problems and for respiratory, ENT and pelvic conditions.
