In galvanic treatments, who is considered the inactive participant?

In galvanic treatments, the client is considered the inactive participant because they do not actively engage with the electrical current being applied. Instead, their role is passive as they receive the benefits of the treatment. The electrical current generated by the equipment interacts with the skin and any products applied, facilitating various therapeutic effects such as improved circulation, enhanced product penetration, or microbial cleansing.

The operator, on the other hand, actively controls the treatment process, ensuring that the settings are appropriate and guiding the treatment's application. The equipment itself serves as a tool to deliver the necessary electrical currents and does not have an active role in the treatment as it functions based on the operator's decisions. Similarly, the product used is applied during the treatment and can act in response to the electrical current, but it doesn't exhibit agency in the process. Thus, in this context, the client is correctly identified as the inactive participant in galvanic treatments.
