Interferential therapy is to treat conditions where inflammation is a problem such as Back Pain, Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Muscular Pain / Strain, and Sports injuries. INF 4161 Plus produces the low frequency current treatment that uses two medium frequency currents, which "interfere" with each other to produce a beat frequency that the body recognizes as a low frequency energy source.
The rationale is to overcome the problems caused by low-frequency currents, while maintaining their claimed therapeutic effect. Unlike TENS, which delivers intermittent pulses to stimulate surface nerves and block the pain signal, Interferential Current Therapy delivers continuous stimulation deep into the affected tissue. The actual stimulation is produced by crossing two alternating currents with medium frequencies simultaneously to a targeted body region. As a result, these two currents will superimpose to form a new low frequency current deep within the tissue.
