SONOTHERAPY

It is a THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND that acts on the body in two ways:

• MECHANICAL - performs micromassage of the tissue.
• THERMAL - ultrasound energy is converted into heat and warms up surface tissues up to 2 cm deep.

Ultrasound affects the increase of circulation, reduces swelling, helps with painful conditions, relieves muscle spasm. Ultrasound can be used for drug delivery into body, locally, on the painful place, so called sonophoresis.

The most important effect of ultrasound is anti-inflammatory, analgesic (pain relief), decreased muscle spasm, increased local circulation and special kind of micromassage of the tissue, boosted tendon healing after injury. Thermal effect results in vasodilatation and increased lymph flow.
