RT Journal Article T1 Anwendungsgebiete der elektrotherapie in der ergotherapie T2 Applications of electrotherapy in occupational therapy A1 Mangold, Sabine A1 Keller, Thierry AB Among its many applications, electrotherapy is used in pain therapy, ion-therapy and for stimulating the motor system. In neuromuscular diseases it is used to build muscles and support voluntary movement through neuro-facilitation and the activation of muscle systems. This therapy also enables patients to carry out daily tasks with the aid of neuro-ortheses. In the case of peripheral lesions, it helps protect associated muscles from degeneration and keeps them in working order should reinnervation be successful.
