Physiotherapy modalities (Ultrasound) are used for relaxation of muscle spasms, prevention of disuse atrophy (muscle wasting), increase of local blood circulation, reducing inflammation, maintaining and increasing range of motion, management of chronic pain, and post-traumatic acute pain and wound healing.
Ultrasound is a treatment modality that uses high-frequency sound waves to penetrate deep tissues. Unlike diagnostic ultrasound, this is used to accelerate the healing process and reduce inflammation in muscles, tendons, and joints.
The sound waves create a cellular micro-massage effect and deep heat within the affected tissue. This increases blood flow to the area, helps relax tight muscle fibers, and promotes soft tissue repair at a cellular level.
Yes, therapeutic ultrasound is a non-invasive and safe treatment that does not use radiation. We adjust the intensity based on your specific injury to ensure the process is both effective and comfortable.
Therapeutic ultrasound has no significant side effects. Most patients find the experience relaxing, often feeling a gentle, soothing warmth in the treated area. It is an excellent alternative for those looking to reduce their reliance on pain medication.
Ultrasound is a technology that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body or for therapeutic purposes.
Sound waves are sent into the body, and the echoes are captured to produce images of organs, tissues, or blood flow.
Yes, ultrasound is considered safe as it does not use radiation like X-rays.
Ultrasound is generally safe and has no significant side effects.
