About

Therapeutic ultrasound is a form of deep thermotherapy. Ultrasound operates through mechanical, thermal, biochemical, and physicochemical actions. Its therapeutic effect is achieved by increasing tissue temperature in the applied area, improving circulation and metabolic exchange, and enhancing tissue elasticity. By heating structures near bones (tendon insertions, tendon sheaths, bursae, ligament insertions, joint capsules), it can influence regenerative processes in chronic degenerative and inflammatory conditions.

Candidate

Ultrasound therapy is used for chronic degenerative joint and spine diseases, as well as injuries to ligaments, muscles, tendons, and joint capsules. It is also effective for arthritis and rheumatic changes. This therapy helps reduce pain and spasms and alleviates inflammation in muscles and joints.

Preparation

Indication of a physiatrist is required.

Treatment

The ultrasound is applied to the painful area using a probe, along with a contact medium (oil, gel, cream). By heating the tissues deeply, without affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissue, it reduces pain, muscle spasms, and joint inflammation. It can also be applied in a water bath.
