THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND

Movement for Life

Therapeutic ultrasound is a modality that has been used by physiotherapists since the 1940s. Ultrasound is applied using the head of an ultrasound probe placed in direct contact with your skin via a transmission coupling gel.

Therapeutic ultrasound may increase:

• healing rates

• tissue relaxation

• tissue heating

• local blood flow

• scar tissue breakdown.
