Accidents can have a traumatic effect both on your mind and body. At Med-Pro Medical Group, our goal is to help you overcome any physical trauma you that is bothering you and keeping you away from getting back to normality. Among the range of services we offer, Ultrasound has been a prominent therapeutic modality in use by physical therapists for several decades.
Our Application Process Of Ultrasound Imaging Services And Its Uses
The application of Ultrasound, which is also popular as ultra-sonography, involves the use of a round-headed probe or wand placed directly in touch with the patient’s body- skin to be exact. An ultrasound gel is applied on the surface of the skin where the wand will be moved in order to reduce the amount of friction produced during this process, as well as offer optimum assistance in the transference of the powerful ultrasonic waves. The frequency range of therapeutic Ultrasound stays within 0.8 to 0.10 MHz, which we determine after doing an echocardiogram of our patients. This also helps us to understand the conditions of your heart health for the treatment.
Piezoelectric Effect Improve Healing Process
The ultrasonic waves are produced as a result of the piezoelectric effect resulting from the vibration of the crystals present within the wand/probe head. The sound waves passing through the skin cells cause the local tissues to vibrate. This vibration can end up with locally centralized deep heating even though you will not feel any heat as such. In cases where such heating is not desired, like in the case of any fresh injury with high inflammation, our therapists are trained to pulse the Ultrasound instead of transmitting continuously.
Produces Heat to Healing Body
Apart from producing the required heating effects for therapy, Ultrasound also produces other essential effects that can help heal your body after a traumatic experience. It has shown wonderful benefits in increasing blood flow, tissue relaxation, as well as scar tissue breakdown. Increase in blood flow helps in reducing chronic inflammation, as well as local swelling. According to research, this assists in promoting healing in bone fracture cases. The power density or intensity of the Ultrasound is adjusted depending upon the effect desired. A high power density ultrasound is used in cases where the breakdown of scar tissue is the primary goal.
