The use of ultrasound as a physical therapy modality is very common and very effective.
Ultrasound provides a very deep heat to the soft tissue in your body. This heat helps to increase circulation to the surrounding tendons, muscles and ligaments which in turn helps the healing process in that area.
In addition – deep heat helps to increase the elasticity of these muscles and tendons that have tightened due to the injury.
The ultrasound modality is one component of your overall physical therapy treatment plan.
