Home Use Ultrasound Physiotherapy Machine for plantar fasciitis pain relief

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 penetratethe skin.

The ultrasound applicator converts power from thedevice into acoustic power

that can cause thermalor non-thermal effects. The sound waves creates microscopic

stimulation in the deep tissue molecules that increases heat and friction. Thewarming

effect encourages and promotes healing inthe 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.

Ultraswave Therapy Effect——Symptom

* 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.
