What is a therapeutic ultrasound in Shorewood WI?

Therapeutic ultrasound is used to provide deep heat to your muscles and tissues via high-frequency sound waves. Blood flow increases as heat opens up the vessels in the target area. The sound waves also send energy into cells, which may speed up tissue healing. It is used in addition to chiropractic adjustments and takes about 10 minutes. Most people do not feel anything other than the ultrasound moving across their skin, though some may feel gentle heat.

How can it help me?

Ultrasound therapy can increase muscle relaxation and blood flow, as well as reduce swelling and inflammation. It may be beneficial if you have osteoarthritis, muscle pains, tendonitis, sprains and strains, or general neck or back pain.
