At Fisitania Physiotherapy, we are always looking to incorporate advanced technologies to offer effective solutions against pain and injuries. That is why we have integrated Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive, painless technique backed by scientific studies, which is revolutionizing the treatment of various pathologies related to chronic pain and neurological disorders.

tDCS is a brain neuromodulation technique that uses a low-intensity electrical current applied through electrodes to specific points in the skull. This current modulates the activity of specific areas of the brain, improving motor function or reducing pain. Depending on the placement of the electrodes and the intensity, tDCS can increase or decrease cortical excitability, promoting neuronal regeneration and brain plasticity, which facilitates rehabilitation and treatment of various neurological and painful pathologies.

tDCS modulates cortical excitability, altering the electrical activity of neurons. Depending on the placement of the electrodes, you may:

• Increase cortical excitability: Improves motor function and reduces pain by stimulating specific areas of the brain.

• Decrease cortical excitability: It inhibits brain areas, which is useful in pathologies related to chronic pain or anxiety.

In addition, it promotes neuronal plasticity, i.e. the brain’s ability to form new connections and regenerate, facilitating neurological rehabilitation.

• Pain reduction: Ideal for patients with chronic pain, fibromyalgia, or in rehabilitation after a stroke or Parkinson’s diagnosis.

• Non-invasive technique: It does not require surgery or invasive devices, and the application is completely painless.

• Complements other treatments: Enhances the effects of therapies such as percutaneous electrolysis or therapeutic exercise, speeding up recovery.

tDCS is used to treat a variety of neurological and pain-related conditions, such as:

• Chronic pain (fibromyalgia, musculoskeletal pain)

• Neurological rehabilitation (stroke, trauma, surgery)

• Parkinson’s disease

• Migraines

• Anxiety and depression disorders

• Attention deficit

• Addictions

tDCS is a valuable tool that complements other treatments, helping to reduce drug use, speed recovery, and optimize clinical outcomes. At Fisitania, we have state-of-the-art equipment and highly qualified professionals, committed to your health.

If you are looking for an innovative, effective solution without the side effects of invasive treatments, Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation is the ideal option. We are waiting for you to start transforming your health!
