| has gloss | fin: Elektroterapia on hoitomenetelmä, jossa erilaisia fysiologisia häiriötiloja hoidetaan aktivoimalla solujen toimintaa sähkön avulla. Voidaan käyttää hyväksi monissa sairauksissa ja kivuissa hoitokeinona, kuten masennuksessa ja lihaskivuissa. Myös TV-Shopissa mainostetut sähköiset lihastenkasvatuslaitteet perustuvat samaan ideaan. Elektro- eli sähköterapia on fysikaalisista hoidoista ainoa, mikä ei enää ole kiistan alainen vaan yleisesti hyväksytty hoitomenetelmä. Sähköterapien muodoista mm. TENS, eli transkutaaninen nervous stimulation, lievittää lihas- ja nivelkipuja ja perustuu kehon endorfiinituotantoon. TENS laitetta käytetään myös infarktikipujen lievitykseen. Transkutaaninen nervous stimulaatiolla on havaittu myös lihaksia rentouttava vaikutus. Toisaalta sähköhoitoja käytetään myös, edelleen, menestyksekkäästi skitsofrenian hoidossa. |
