🔌 Galvanic vs Faradic Currents: Key Differences for Students

 Electrotherapy is a powerful tool in physiotherapy — and two of its foundational currents are Galvanic and Faradic currents. Whether you're studying for exams or brushing up for clinical practice, here's a clear breakdown to help you understand the key differences between the two. ⚡ What Are They? 🔌 Galvanic Current Also called Direct Current (DC) , this is a continuous, unidirectional flow of electric charge. It has a constant polarity (positive and negative electrodes). Type: Continuous Direct Current (DC) Polarity: Fixed (positive/negative) Used for: Iontophoresis Wound healing Stimulation of denervated muscles 🔄 Faradic Current This is an Interrupted or Pulsed Alternating Current (AC) , with short duration and high frequency. It mimics natural nerve impulses to stimulate muscles. Type: Interrupted Pulsed AC Polarity: No fixed polarity Used for: Muscle re-education Improving muscle tone Treating muscle atrophy in parti...
