Interferential Therapy (IFT)

What is Interferential Therapy (IFT)?

IFT is an advanced electrotherapy technique used in physiotherapy to relieve deep muscle pain, nerve pain and inflammation. It works by sending medium-frequency electrical currents that penetrate deeper tissues, providing long-lasting pain relief.

Benefits of IFT Therapy

• Reduces pain quickly
• Decreases swelling and inflammation
• Releases muscle tightness
• Improves blood circulation
• Accelerates tissue healing
• Reduces nerve pain (neuropathic pain)
• Helps increase range of motion

Conditions We Treat with IFT

• Back pain & lower back stiffness
• Sciatica & nerve compression
• Shoulder impingement / frozen shoulder
• Knee pain (arthritis, ligament strain)
• Neck pain & cervical spondylosis
• Sports injuries
• Muscle spasms & tightness
• Post-operative or post-immobilization pain

How IFT Works

Two medium-frequency currents intersect inside the tissue, creating a therapeutic low-frequency effect deep inside muscles and joints. This helps reduce inflammation and blocks pain signals, offering rapid relief.
