Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is a non-invasive therapy that involves the use of low-voltage electrical currents to relieve pain. Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation units are small, battery-operated devices that deliver electrical impulses through electrodes placed on the skin. The Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation unit consists of electrodes connected to wires. These electrodes are placed on or near the area of the body experiencing pain. The placement may vary depending on the specific condition and the location of pain.

The ultrasonic waves generate heat in the tissues, which helps to relax muscles, ligaments, and tendons. This can reduce pain and stiffness in the treated area. The mechanical energy from the sound waves can enhance blood circulation in the targeted area. This increased blood flow brings essential nutrients and oxygen to the tissues, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. This can improve the range of motion and flexibility in the treated area.

Knee Continuous Passive Motion is commonly used after knee surgery or injury, such as knee replacement or ligament reconstruction. The CPM machine is set to move the knee joint continuously within a specific range of motion, typically starting with gentle flexion and extension. The purpose of knee CPM is to prevent stiffness, reduce pain and swelling, enhance circulation, and promote tissue healing. It is usually prescribed for a specific duration and frequency, which may vary depending on the individual's condition.
