Therapeutic Ultrasound

Therapeutic Ultrasound is one of the most widely used passive modalities for the treatment of soft tissue injury, joint dysfunction and pain.

Therapeutic Ultrasound is the use of sound waves to penetrate the body eliciting therapeutic benefit in specific target tissues.

These ultrasound waves are produced in the transducer head of the ultrasound machine where electrical energy is transmitted to a special quartz or synthetic crystal. When stimulated by the electricity the crystal vibrates at an extremely high frequency, which are called “ultrasonic vibrations.” These ultrasonic vibrations emit ultrasound waves from the transducer head that are transmitted into the body via coupling media.
