Diathermy is a more commonly prescribed therapeutic treatment for muscle and joint conditions. It uses a high frequency electrical current to stimulate the generation of heat inside the corporal tissues.


Short wave

Short-wave diathermy uses high-frequency electromagnetic energy to generate heat. It can be applied in waves of pulsed or continuous energy. It has been used to treat kidney stone pain, and pelvic inflammatory disease. It is commonly used for conditions that cause pain and muscle spasms, such as:
Sprains
Strains
Bursitis
Tenosynovitis

The short-wave diathermy machines use two capacitor plates that are placed on each side of the part of the body to be treated. Another mode of application is by induction coils which are flexible and can be molded to fit the part of the body under treatment. As high frequency waves travel through the body tissues between the capacitors or the coils, they become heat. The degree of heat and depth of penetration depend in part on the absorption and resistance properties of the tissues encountered by the waves.

Short-wave diathermy uses the ISM band frequencies of 13.56, 27.12 and 40.68 megahertz. Most commercial machines operate at a frequency of 27.12 MHz, a wavelength of approximately 11 meters.

Short-wave diathermy usually is prescribed for the treatment of deep muscles and joints that are covered with a heavy mass of soft tissues, for example, the hip. In some cases short-wave diathermy can be used to locate deep inflammatory processes, such as in pelvic inflammatory disease. Short-wave diathermy can also be used for hyperthermia therapy, as an adjuvant for radiation in the treatment of cancer. Normally, hyperthermia would be added twice a week prior to radiation, as shown in the photograph of a 2010 clinical trial at Mahavir Cancer Sansthan in Patna, India.
