About ultrasonic

What is the ultrasound?
Ultrasound machines are a treatment modality used by physical therapists that utilize high or low frequency sound waves. These sound waves are transmitted to the surrounding tissue and vasculature. They penetrate the muscles to cause deep tissue/muscle warming. This promotes tissue relaxation and therefore is useful in treating muscle tightness and spasms. The warming effect of the sound waves also cause vessel vasodilatation and increase circulation to the area that assists in healing. The physical therapist can also adjust the frequency on the machine to use waves that will decrease inflammation.
How does the Ultrasound work?
Ultrasound is a deep heating modality that is most effective in heating tissues of deep joints. It has been found to be helpful in improving the distensibility of connective tissue, which facilitates stretching. It is not indicated in acute inflammatory conditions where it may serve to exacerbate the inflammatory response and typically provides only short-term benefit when used in isolation. It is perhaps best used to improve limitations in segmental spinal range of motion following recurrent or chronic low back pain as an adjunct in facilitating soft tissue mobilization and prolonged stretching by a skilled manual therapist.
The use of ultrasound is contraindicated over a previous laminectomy or peripheral nerve secondary to alterations in membrane stability. It should be discontinued as segmental motion is improved with the patient then moved into an active strengthening program and eventual transference to an independent home exercise program.

What is the Ultrasound Treatment used for?
Ultrasound is the best form of heat treatment for soft tissue injuries. It is used to treat joint and muscle sprains, bursitis, and tendonitis.
Ultrasound treatment is used to:
• relieve pain and inflammation
• speed healing
• reduce muscle spasms and
• increase range of motion
Ultrasound makes high frequency sound waves. The sound waves vibrate tissues deep inside the injured area. This creates heat that draws more blood into the tissues. The tissues then respond to healing nutrients brought in by the blood and the repair process begins.
Treatment is given with a soundhead that is moved gently in strokes or circles over the injured area. It lasts just a few minutes. The procedure may be performed with the soundhead alone or combined with a topical anti-inflammatory drug or gel.
Ultrasound treatment is often used by physical therapists, trainers, and many other healthcare providers. It is very safe and is never used around the eyes, ears, ovaries, testicles, or spinal cord, or where there is an active infection.
What is the Facial Ultrasound?
Ultrasound has been used on the beautification only for 20 years. Ultrasound permeates into deep skin texture with transformed hear and micro vibration to reach revival effect. It internal heat to massage the cells and cause a movement and vibration of the cell nucleus, which is turn cause a regeneration of the cells.
Vibration and the cavitations would remove old cuticle and oiled waste out of the pores. It will reduce acne that orange peel look, wrinkles and puffiness, remove the dead skin cell layer, abolish pigment disorders, promote total skin clarity and drive products deep into the skin.
The deep heat helps to relieve pain, inflammation, reduces muscle spasms, and accelerates healing. Depending on the treatment area, range of motion may be increased.

Can ultrasonic beauty treatments make wrinkles disappear?
• Ultrasonic beauty care product is a high quality device; it helps reduce the rate of skin aging. Quality ultrasonic beauty care device expected to repair some existing skin cell damage, plus improve the health of some of the underlying cells and tissues. So it can make wrinkle more smoothing

Should I specially use gel for ultrasound treatment?
Ultrasound cannot transmit in the air. If the treatment head hoes not completely contact with the skin, the result would not meet your expectation. Researches display, the transmission proportion of ultrasound in the air is 0, about 50% in general water, 60% in distilled water, near 70% in glue matter, and above 70% in special gel. Besides, another efficacy of ultrasound is to promote the skin absorbing outside matters, no matter nutrition or dirt. Hence, the transmission is worthy to be noticed, Except cleaning your skin before using ultrasound device, we also suggested you use special gels or creams (they must be certified by hygiene organization) in case side effects.
