Physiotherapy resources
The goal of applying ice and shortwave diathermy to the calf, ankle and sole of the foot was to verify the effect of this resources at the neuromuscular response of the lower limb and postural balance
Physiotherapy resources
The application of ice has been accomplished by means of a plastic bag containing 1.5 kg of crushed ice. The duration of the application was 30 minutes. The use of shortwave diathermy was performed by means of rectangular electrodes having a duration of 20 minutes.
