Faradic Current Therapy
What Is Faradic Therapy?
Faradic therapy is a type of electrical muscle stimulation used to activate weak or inactive muscles.
It is commonly used in physiotherapy rehabilitation to improve muscle strength and function.
How Does It Work?
Small electrical impulses are delivered through electrodes placed on the skin, causing the muscles to contract and relax.
This helps:
Stimulate muscle activity

Improve circulation
Re-educate weakened muscles

You may feel rhythmic muscle contractions during the session. The treatment is generally comfortable and closely monitored by your physiotherapist.
