Radiofrequency in Patients Post Covid 19 With Respiratory Sequelae.

"We apply manual tecniques while we use the radiofrequency, the treatment is divided into 3 phases:~* PHASE 1: With the patient in the supine position, treatment was performed along the diaphragm for 10 minutes, of which 5 minutes were spent with the capacitive electrode and the other 5 minutes with the resistive electrode. The plate was placed on the back at the level of the diaphragm.~* PHASE 2: The patient was placed in the lateral decubitus position on their right side and 3 minutes were spent with the capacitive electrode and 7 minutes with the resistive electrode. The patient was asked to breathe costal-diaphragmatically throughout the entire duration of the resistive electrode. The plate was placed on the right side, at lung level.~* PHASE 3: The same procedure was performed as in the second phase, only this time on the contralateral side, i.e., on the left side."

Manual techniques are used to increase inspiratory capacity, working on the diaphragm and rib cage to increase their mobility along with breathing exercises.
