Microwave therapy (UHF therapy) is a treatment method in which the patient’s body is affected by an ultra-high frequency electromagnetic field. Under the influence of microwave therapy, blood vessels expand, blood circulation increases, spasm of smooth muscles decreases, the processes of inhibition and excitation of the nervous system are normalized, the passage of impulses along the nerve fibre, the metabolism of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates is accelerated.
Microwave therapy stimulates the functioning of the adrenal system, and has anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic, hypersensitive, and pain-relieving effects.
