Magnetotherapy units - check out what to look out for
Cooperable applicators
Before choosing a unit, it is worth checking which applicators it works with. This allows us to choose the right device with the necessary accessories for us. For magnetotherapy units, there are:
- solenoid applicators of various sizes: CS35, CS60, CS75
- plate applicator
- CPEP applicator
An encyclopaedia with a description of the treatment methodology
Nowadays, the devices offer many modern conveniences that make the work of physiotherapists easier. One such solution, for example, is an encyclopaedia with a description of the treatment methodology. Also worth noting is the number of built-in treatment programmes.
Ergonomics
The design of the device seems to be an aspect of little significance, depending on taste. However, the refined design, large display, or transparent keyboard layout add significantly to the convenience of use
Treatment channels
A crucial element is the number of treatment channels. In devices with more than one channel, one can carry out more independent treatments simultaneously. This is a major improvement, and a real reduction in treatment time. Thanks to the two independent therapy channels, it is possible, for example, to perform the treatment in dual mode.
Additional information
Additional features include an in-built encyclopaedia of treatment methods, statistics on treatments carried out and an automatic treatment time calculation system.
