Ultrasound therapy is a method of physiotherapy based on the use of ultrasound waves with a frequency of 0.8 to 3 MHz. These waves penetrate into tissues to a depth of 5-6 cm, exerting mechanical, thermal and physico-chemical effects. Mechanical action is associated with microvibration of cells, thermal - with local heating of tissues, and physical and chemical - with the activation of biochemical processes.
The method is used to treat a wide range of diseases, including pathologies of the musculoskeletal system, inflammatory processes and post-traumatic conditions. Ultrasound helps to improve blood circulation, relieve pain, reduce inflammation and stimulate tissue regeneration.
Ultrasound therapy is prescribed for various pathological conditions when local exposure to tissues without invasive intervention is required. The method is effective in the treatment of chronic and acute diseases, as well as during rehabilitation. Indications for use are determined by the doctor based on the clinical picture and diagnostic data:
Contraindications include cancer, acute infections, thrombophlebitis, pregnancy and the presence of a pacemaker. Before the appointment of the procedure, a thorough examination is carried out to identify possible complications.
Physiotherapists, nurses and rehabilitators are involved in ultrasound therapy. Their joint work ensures accurate diagnosis and correct application of the method.
The procedure is carried out in a physiotherapeutic room using specialized equipment.—ultrasound machines. Before the session, the doctor determines the parameters of exposure: frequency, intensity (usually 0.2).–1 W/cm²), pulsed or continuous and lasting 5 to 15 minutes.
The process begins with preparation–The area of exposure is cleaned, a contact gel is applied to the skin to improve the conductivity of ultrasound. Then, a specialist using a sensor (emitter) performs circular or linear movements along the treatment area. The patient usually does not feel discomfort, only mild heat or tingling.
Sessions are held daily or every other day, the course includes 8–12 procedures depending on the disease. After the procedure, the patient is advised to avoid physical exertion for several hours.
The procedure involves physiotherapists who adjust the parameters of the equipment, and nurses who perform the procedure itself. Rehabilitators can adjust the treatment plan, including ultrasound in a comprehensive recovery program.
This therapeutic course demonstrates high effectiveness. Its results depend on the diagnosis, general treatment tactics and individual characteristics of the body. The first positive changes are recorded after the first sessions, but for a sustainable result, full implementation of the planned program is required. The main results include:
Long-term results include restoring the function of affected organs and tissues, reducing the risk of recurrence, and improving quality of life. To maintain the effect, repeated courses can be prescribed after several months.
To assess the results, specialized specialists are involved, who analyze the dynamics of the patient’s condition and develop a further recovery plan. Junior medical personnel participate in the collection of data on the patient's well-being during ultrasound therapy.
