Physical Ultrasound Therapy Machine for Plantar Fasciitis ankle sprain muslce pain relief

Waht is Ultasound Physiotherapys  Machine

Ultrasound therapy causes mechanical vibrations, from high frequency sound waves, on skin and soft tissue via an aqueous solution (Gel). A gel is applied either to the applicator head or to the skin, which helps the sound waves to evenly penetrate the skin.

The ultrasound applicator converts power from the device into acoustic power that can cause thermal or non-thermal effects. The sound waves creates microscopic stimulation in the deep tissue molecules that increases heat and friction. The warming effect encourages and promotes healing in the soft tissues by increasing the metabolism at the level of the tissue cells.

Ultrasound physiotherapy Therapy Effect

The effect of therapeutic ultrasound via an increase in local blood flow may help reduce local swelling and
chronic inflammation, and, according to some studies,promote bone fracture healing. The intensity or power
density of the ultrasound can be adjusted depending onthe desired effect. A higher power density (measured in
watt/cm2) may soften or breakdown scar tissue.
 

How does the patient benefit from ultrasound?

As the probe glides over the skin's surface, sound waves penetrate the skin's surface causing soft tissues to vibrate, creating heat. In turn, the heat induces vasodilation: drawing blood into the target tissues. Increased blood flow delivers needed oxygen and nutrients, and removes cell wastes.

The heat helps relieve pain and inflammation, reduce muscle spasms, and accelerate healing. Depending on the treatment area, range of motion may be increased.

Ultraswave Therapy Effect——Symptom

*Ligament and tendon injuries
* Soft tissue injuries.
* Chronic strains and sprains.
* Myositis – the inflammation of muscle tissues.
* Bursitis – inflammation of the fluid-field pads surrounding joints.
* Tendonitis – inflammation of the tissue connecting the muscles to the bones.
* Tendon Sheath Inflammation.
* Osteoarthritis.
* Plantar fasciitis.
 

Precautions in Ultrasound Treatment
 
 
Always use the lowest intensity which produces a therapeutic response
The head of the applicators should be moving throughout the treatment
The ultrasound beam (treatment head) should be perpendicular to the treatment area for best results.
All parameters (intensity, duration, and mode) need to be considered carefully for desired therapeutic effects.

 
Parameters
 

 

 
Ultasound wave Principle:
 
1.Mechanical function: the ultrasound have the [micro massage" to the tissue substance and tiny cell. It could soften tissue, enhance penetration, improve metabolism, promote blood circulation, stimulate nerve system and cell, relief pain.
 
2.Heating function: it forms heat during ultrasound therapy, so it is also called
as"ultrasound diathermy therapy". it is deep heating, that penetrate below the muscle.
Thus, ultrasound therapy is applied to chronic soft tissue pain, arthritis, rheumatism.
 
3.Physical therapy function: based on the mechanical and heating function,
it will trigger physical therapy.
