Ultrasound is a mechanical vibration. Its action is based on micro massage and tissue heating.

Ultrasound is used:

• as an analgesic
• as an anti-inflammatory
• for increasing tissue elasticity, in scars, contractures, joint capsule fibrosis
• to reduce muscle tension.

Ultrasound is used to carry out PHONOPHORESIS, which is the non-invasive and painless administration of drugs, e.g. analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, anticoagulants to joints and soft tissues.
