Introduction to Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-frequency sound waves to promote healing in tissues. It is widely used by osteopaths and physiotherapists to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and accelerate the recovery process.
How Ultrasound Therapy Works
Ultrasound therapy works by transmitting sound waves through the skin into the deeper tissues. These waves create gentle vibrations that:
- Increase blood circulation
- Reduce muscle spasms
- Break down scar tissue
- Enhance the healing process
Benefits of Ultrasound Therapy

- Enhanced Healing: Accelerates tissue repair and regeneration.
- Reduced Inflammation: Minimizes swelling and stiffness in joints and muscles.
- Scar Tissue Management: Helps break down internal scar tissue for better mobility.
- Non-Invasive: Safe and gentle treatment with no downtime.
