Author(s): Tihana Sikorski*
Therapeutic ultrasound is a widely used modality in musculoskeletal rehabilitation that leverages high-frequency sound waves to promote tissue healing, reduce pain, and improve mobility. Traditionally employed for soft tissue injuries, ultrasound therapy has shown promising results in the treatment of conditions such as tendonitis, bursitis, muscle strains, and joint pain. The treatment works by delivering sound waves to the affected tissue, which penetrate deep into the skin and increase the temperature of the tissue, improving blood circulation and stimulating cellular repair processes. Over time, the technol.. Read More»
