Ultrasound Therapy
Accelerating Healing with Sound Waves
Therapeutic ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to generate deep heat within tissues, increasing blood flow and promoting faster recovery for soft tissue injuries.
How It Works
Ultrasound therapy is a common non-invasive treatment used by physiotherapists. A handheld probe is applied to the skin using a gel. The probe transmits sound waves that penetrate deep into muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
Key Benefits
- Deep Heating: Increases tissue temperature, which improves elasticity and circulation.
- Reduced Inflammation: Helps manage swelling in acute injuries.
- Tissue Healing: Stimulates collagen production, essential for repairing damaged tissues.
- Pain Relief: Reduces muscle spasms and pain sensitivity.
Commonly Treated Conditions
- Tendonitis (e.g., Tennis Elbow, Achilles Tendonitis)
- Ligament Sprains (e.g., Ankle sprains)
- Muscle Strains and tears
- Frozen Shoulder
- Scar tissue management
