Question

if you are using galvanic current on your client as part of their skin treatments, which of the following would best explain why you would want to choose to use cataphoresis instead of anaphoresis? select the correct response: you are trying to expand your client’s blood vessels. you are attempting to soothe your client’s nerves. you are trying to soften your client’s tissues. you are trying to open your client’s pores.

Explanation:

Cataphoresis is a process in which positively - charged ions are driven into the skin by an electric current. This can help in opening the pores to allow for better penetration of substances. Anaphoresis is the opposite process. Expanding blood vessels, soothing nerves, and softening tissues are not the main reasons for choosing cataphoresis over anaphoresis. Opening pores is a key reason for using cataphoresis in skin treatments.

Answer:

You are trying to open your client’s pores.
