Ultrasound ::
This
treatment should not be confused with diagnostic ultrasound,
often used in prenatal screening, but is instead a therapeutic
procedure that utilizes sound waves to treat injured muscles,
joints, and soft tissues. The sound waves vibrate the tissues
back and forth, creating a deep, micro-massage effect. In
the case of a recent injury, this helps to decrease scar
tissue and adhesion formation, which would otherwise interfere
with the body's healing process.
The
sound waves also decrease inflammation by destroying unwanted
inflammatory cells. The sound waves also accelerate healing
by stimulating the activity of the cells responsible for
cellular and tissue repair. In chronic cases, special settings
are used to create a deep-heating effect, heating the tissues
far below the skin's surface. This heat, along with the
vibrations that are caused by the ultrasound, help to "melt
away" the muscle spasms and "knots" felt
in our muscles.
