Together with stimulation current therapy, ultrasound therapy is one of the most common forms of physical therapy treatment. Therapeutic ultrasound is applied at frequencies of 1 MHz or 3 MHz as continuous sound or pulsed sound in different pulse ratios. Ultrasound therapy is categorised as mechanothermotherapy due to its multi-layered effects. Depending on the therapy parameters (treatment frequency, type of sound, dose, treatment duration and cycle), ultrasound treatment focusses on a thermal effect (heat development at reflective boundary layers of the tissue, e.g. bones, joints) or a micro-massage in the treated tissue segment. The effects of ultrasound therapy can be summarised as follows:
  • Hyperaemia
  • Acceleration of metabolic functions
  • (microcirculation, diffusion processes)
  • Increasing the elasticity of connective tissue structures
  • (collagen fibres)
  • Pain relief
  • Muscular detonation and spasm relief
  • Acceleration of healing processes
  • Stimulation of fracture healing

With ultrasound therapy devices from PHYSIOMED, you can start treatment as quickly and easily as possible: direct selection, via the indication index or the programme memory. You have a constant overview of all parameters during treatment. The PHYSIOMED single-button control, which has been tried and tested for decades, enables intuitive and fast user guidance.
Comprehensive indication lists with helpful information, graphics and animations as well as the patient database also make ultrasound treatment easier for you. There is a choice of two ergonomic treatment heads with a surface area of 2.5 square centimetres or 5 square centimetres, which are also suitable for subaqueous treatment. The biocompatible and extremely durable titanium ultrasound surface offers maximum safety and reliability in power delivery and prevents metallurgical deposition. Together with the continuous or pulsed power output (4 duty cycles [1:10, 1:5, 1:3, 2:5]), the optical and acoustic coupling control guarantees efficient therapy.
