Iontophoresis for Local Inflamation: Electrically or Not

Iontophoresis for Anti-Inflammatory Treatment

The above link is for treatment of inflammation using a physical therapy patch with topical steroid called iontophoresis. This used to be administered electrically, but now many PTs are saying that they get the same results without the electric part. If you have any feedback, please let me know. I have no experience with the non-electrical method. 


These videos are the more typical method we have always used with very good success.
