Treatment of Scapulohumeral Arthropathy with Impairment of ROM using Xenon rays / 全日本鍼灸学会雑誌

ABSTRACT

Xenon photorays are incoherent waves like the sun rays, but it shows a bright line spectrum. Each bright line exhibits a form similar to the laser spectrum waves. The microwaves have been conventionally used to deliver stimulation to the deep tissues. The effects of the xenon photorays and microwaves on the range of motion in scapulohumeral periarthritis were compared.<br>Our findings indicated that xenon photorays were superior to the conventional microwaves in bringing about improvement of the range of motion in scapulohumeral arthropathy.
