Ultrasound therapy is a treatment that uses high-frequency sound waves to promote tissue healing and reduce pain. A physiotherapist applies a gel to the affected area and uses a small device to deliver sound waves deep into the tissues. This increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and promotes the healing of injured muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Ultrasound therapy is commonly used for soft tissue injuries, tendonitis, and conditions like bursitis, offering a non-invasive way to aid recovery.
Ultrasound therapy is effective for treating various conditions, including soft tissue injuries, tendonitis, muscle strains, ligament sprains, joint inflammation, and scar tissue. It’s also commonly used to reduce pain and improve the healing process after surgeries, such as ligament repairs or joint replacements. The therapy promotes tissue regeneration and reduces swelling, making it ideal for both acute injuries and chronic conditions that involve inflammation or tissue damage.
Ultrasound therapy is typically painless. Most patients feel only a slight warming sensation or mild tingling in the area being treated, which is soothing. The high-frequency sound waves are not audible to the human ear and do not cause discomfort. For some individuals with heightened sensitivity, there may be minor discomfort, but this can be easily adjusted by the physiotherapist. Overall, ultrasound therapy is a gentle and non-invasive treatment that helps reduce pain without causing additional discomfort.
The number of ultrasound therapy sessions you’ll need depends on the severity and type of your condition. For acute injuries, you may experience improvement after a few sessions, typically between 3 to 6 treatments. Chronic conditions or more severe injuries may require a longer course of therapy, often spanning several weeks. Your physiotherapist will assess your progress after each session and adjust the frequency and duration of your treatment based on your individual response to the therapy.
Ultrasound therapy is considered safe when performed by a trained physiotherapist. Side effects are rare, but some patients may experience mild skin irritation or temporary discomfort in the treated area. It’s important to communicate with your physiotherapist if you feel any discomfort during the session. Certain individuals, such as those with active infections, cancerous lesions, or metal implants in the treatment area, may not be suitable candidates for ultrasound therapy. Your physiotherapist will assess your suitability for the treatment beforehand.
