Ultrasound Therapy

What Are The Benefits of Ultrasound Therapy?

Ultrasound Therapy is a treatment modality used in physical therapy to promote tissue healing and relieve pain. This non-invasive technique employs sound waves to deliver deep heat to soft tissues like muscles, tendons, joints, and ligaments in the body. Here are five key facts about Ultrasound Therapy:

1.

Deep Tissue Healing

Ultrasound Therapy penetrates deeper than just the surface level, targeting tissues up to 5 centimeters below the skin. This deep penetration aids in healing at the source of the pain or injury.

2.

Pain Relief

By increasing blood flow and warming the affected area, it helps reduce swelling and decrease pain, making it effective for chronic pain management.

The treatment boosts the metabolic rate at the cellular level, enhancing the tissue repair process and speeding up recovery.
