Therapeutic Ultrasound is a physiotherapy treatment that uses sound waves to gently heat deep tissues.

What Can Therapeutic Ultrasound Help?
Neck and Shoulder Pain
Therapeutic Ultrasound delivers high-frequency sound waves that penetrate deep into soft tissues, producing thermal and non-thermal effects. The thermal effects increase tissue temperature, improving blood flow, tissue extensibility, and metabolic activity. Non-thermal effects (micro-massage, cavitation) promote cellular repair and reduce inflammation. This combination helps relax tight muscles, decrease joint stiffness, and accelerate healing in neck and shoulder injuries.
Low Back Pain
Therapeutic Ultrasound uses gentle sound waves to reach deep tissues in your lower back. These waves help relax tight muscles, improve blood flow, and reduce stiffness. They also support your body’s natural healing, helping sore muscles and ligaments recover faster. This can make movement easier and reduce pain in your lower back.
Tennis Elbow
Therapeutic Ultrasound uses gentle sound waves to reach the tendons and muscles around your elbow. These waves help increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and relax tight tissues, promoting healing in the injured tendons. This can ease pain, improve elbow movement, and support faster recovery from tennis elbow.
Carpal Tunnel
Therapeutic Ultrasound uses gentle sound waves to reach the muscles, tendons, and soft tissues around your wrist. These waves help reduce inflammation, improve blood flow, and relax tight tissues, which can relieve pressure on the median nerve. This may ease pain, numbness, and stiffness, and help improve hand and wrist movement.
Achilles Tendinitis
Therapeutic Ultrasound uses gentle sound waves to reach the Achilles tendon at the back of your ankle. These waves help increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and relax tight tissues, promoting healing in the injured tendon. This can ease pain, improve ankle movement, and support faster recovery.
Plantar Fasciitis
Therapeutic Ultrasound targets the thick tissue along the bottom of your foot. The gentle waves help calm inflammation, increase blood flow, and relax tight tissue, promoting recovery of the plantar fascia. This can ease heel pain, make walking more comfortable, and support healing.
