Zimmer ThermoPro Shortwave Diathermy Therapy Unit
Description
The Zimmer ThermoPro is a modern shortwave diathermy therapy system designed for clinical and rehabilitation settings where precise, deep tissue heating is essential. Unlike surface heat applications, shortwave diathermy generates heat directly within the tissue by converting high-frequency electromagnetic energy into thermal energy - delivering therapeutic warmth where it matters most. The ThermoPro operates at 27.12 MHz and supports both continuous and pulsed energy delivery, giving clinicians a wide range of treatment options for diverse patient needs. Its clean, intuitive design and low weight make it easy to reposition between treatment rooms without disrupting workflow. The flexible applicator using the coil field method allows for comfortable, precise placement on virtually any treatment area. Whether you are managing chronic pain, inflammatory conditions, or joint stiffness, the ThermoPro offers a dependable and effective therapeutic modality.
Key Features
- Shortwave Diathermy Technology: Generates heat directly in tissue via high-frequency electromagnetic fields - not surface heat - for deeper, more effective therapeutic results.
- Output Frequency: 27.12 MHz: Industry-standard shortwave frequency optimized for therapeutic tissue heating and eddy current generation.
- Continuous and Pulsed Modes: Unpulsed output up to 100 W and pulsed peak output up to 200 W, expanding the range of clinical indications.
- Pulse Frequency Range: 0.5 to 10,000 Hz: Wide pulsed frequency range allows precise customization of treatment protocols.
- Duty Cycle: 1:10 to 9:10: Flexible duty cycle settings support both gentle and intensive treatment approaches.

FAQ
What is shortwave diathermy and how does it differ from surface heat therapy?
Shortwave diathermy uses high-frequency electromagnetic energy (27.12 MHz) to generate heat directly within the tissue, rather than applying heat from the outside. This means deeper structures like muscles, joints, and connective tissues receive therapeutic warmth more effectively than with hot packs or infrared treatments. The result is improved circulation, reduced muscle spasm, and relief from chronic inflammatory conditions at a tissue depth that surface heat simply cannot reach.
What conditions can the ThermoPro be used to treat?
The ThermoPro is indicated for a wide range of musculoskeletal and inflammatory conditions, including pain relief, bursitis, tenosynovitis, synovitis, muscle spasm, joint stiffness, contractures, increased blood flow, chronic inflammatory conditions, and chronic inflammatory pelvic disease. Its dual continuous/pulsed modes further expand treatment flexibility across patient populations.
What is the difference between pulsed and continuous mode?
In continuous mode, energy is delivered uninterrupted for a sustained thermal effect - ideal for deep heating of chronic conditions. In pulsed mode, energy is delivered in bursts with rest intervals, reducing net heat accumulation while still providing therapeutic electromagnetic stimulation. Pulsed mode is often preferred for more acute or sensitive presentations where intense heating is not desired. The ThermoPro supports pulse frequencies from 0.5 to 10,000 Hz and a duty cycle range of 1:10 to 9:10 for precise control.
Is the ThermoPro easy to move between treatment rooms?
Yes. At 82 lbs., the ThermoPro is designed with mobile use in mind. Its relatively compact dimensions and low weight make it practical to reposition throughout your clinic as needed, without requiring a dedicated fixed installation.
Does the ThermoPro require special installation or a dedicated power circuit?
Please contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com or call us for specific electrical and installation requirements for your facility. The unit has a maximum power consumption of 700 W and is Protection Class I, but we recommend confirming local electrical requirements with your facility manager before purchase.
