Introduction

HYPERTHERMIA

.The therapeutic effects of Hyperthermia on the human body have been well-known since the 19^th Century.mainly being indicated for inflammatory proccess,ususlly accompanied by pain.Methods used made it very difficult to obtain ntrolled and harmless thermal increase and some required “invasive” techniques.

What is Therma-S

Therma-S is intended for therapeutic diathermy to produce deep heating without excessive temperature elevationof the skin surface and subcutaneous tissue.Therma B Plus is applied to any part of the human body without pain,musclar contraction or disagreeable sensation of any kind.

The principle of RF Diathermy

.The treament sithe is placed between the plates of a capactor and becomes the dielectric.

.The RF energy is diffused through the part of the body locate between the plate electrodes.

.The oscillating fields produce distortion of molecules,rotation of dipoles and vibration of ions.

.The movement of the molecules and ions generates heat within the tissues.

.These action have been shown to have positive clinical effect on enhancing blood flow.
