Ultra-sound technology therapy

Ultrasound therapy with the Interlect Neo device has the effect of changing cell volume, increasing cell membrane permeability, increasing nutritional metabolism, stimulating the process of tissue regeneration, reducing inflammation, and reducing edema. Ultrasound therapy with the Interlect Neo device specializes in treating:
• Damage to bones, joints and muscles after trauma.
• Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, synovitis.
• Peripheral neuropathic pain, pain due to herniated disc.
• Wounds take a long time to heal, tissue swelling occurs.

What is ultrasound technology?

Modern medical physiotherapy has invented ultrasound waves. When properly impacted on the human body’s tissues, it will create mechanical, chemical and thermal effects. From the above basic effects, it will bring healing effects to the body, helping to reduce pain and improve medical conditions, enhancing the effectiveness of Physical Therapy treatment.

Ultrasound is a mechanical wave created by the vibrations of crystals located in the ultrasound transducer that propagate in an expanding medium. The vibrations of the ultrasound waves are spread from the tip of the transmitter to the body surface and penetrate deeper into the tissues through the contact medium (eg: Gel). The main effect will be tissue heating and microscopic massage.

Operating principle of ultrasound technology

The propagation of ultrasound waves corresponding to each specific frequency (1 – 3MHz) helps create a “micromassage” phenomenon to maximize energy absorption by soft tissues. These waves oscillate with vertical pressure, thereby providing a deep, localized treatment effect.

 

 

The healing effect of ultrasound therapy is brought about by mechanical effects and thermal effects:

MECHANICAL EFFECTS

 

The vibrations of the particles and pressure changes will create the phenomenon of “micromassage”. The higher frequency ultrasound beam (3MHz) will cause faster pressure changes than the lower frequency (1MHz). This pressure change causes:

  • Change in cell volume.
  • Changes in cell membrane permeability.
  • Increases basic cell metabolism

HEAT EFFECT

The impact of ultrasonic waves causes friction to convert mechanical energy into heat energy. Ultrasound waves can affect a depth of more than 8cm under the skin and can create thermal changes in soft tissues by 3.3 degrees Celsius, joint capsules can increase by 6.3 degrees Celsius, and bones can increase 9.3 degrees Celsius.

The therapeutic effect of ultrasound therapy on musculoskeletal diseases

The mechanical and thermogenic effects of ultrasound waves will create a series of precise biological effects on deep muscle tissues and bring about therapeutic effects including:

• Pain relief – arthritis, synovitis
• Reduce ligament spasticity
• Reduce swelling and bruising due to injury
• Increase circulation and nourishment to muscles, tissues, and cells
• Muscle relaxation due to direct ultrasound stimulation of nerve receptors.
• Effects on the peripheral nervous system.
• Treating injuries and post-traumatic sequelae: bruising, pain, reducing soft tissue edema, stimulating the wound healing process.
• Stimulates the regeneration process and recovers damage quickly

The effectiveness of treating musculoskeletal diseases with ultrasound technology can be clearly felt after 1 to 2 treatments, each session lasting 5 – 10 minutes depending on the doctor’s prescription.

What diseases is ultrasound technology indicated for?

Ultrasound waves are indicated for the treatment of musculoskeletal diseases such as:

  • Disc herniation
  • Degenerative spine
  • Headache, neck and shoulder pain
  • Wrist joint pain, hand numbness
  • Scoliosis of the spine
  • Spinal spine
  • Inflammation – pain in the knee joint
  • Knee joint effusion
  • Sciatica
  • Damage to bones, joints and muscles after trauma: bruises, sprains, dislocations, fractures.
  • Chronic rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, Bachterew’s ganglion, bursitis, myositis.
  • Peripheral neuropathic pain, back pain due to disc herniation…
  • Circulatory disorders: Raynaud’s, Buerger’s, Sudeck’s diseases, edema.

Is treatment with ultrasound technology safe?

Currently, combining treatment with ultrasound technology and Chiropractic adjustment is considered a safe and highly effective treatment solution for musculoskeletal diseases. Safety and effectiveness have been recognized by the US FDA. In particular, the advantage of ultrasound waves in musculoskeletal and joint treatment is NO HOT, NO PAIN, patients experience a soothing feeling like being massaged on the skin, the injured area receives just enough heat. Helps patients feel comfortable and at ease, quickly reducing pain.

At iCCARE, patients will be examined directly by a foreign Chiropractic doctor with more than 30 years of experience, personalized regimens and direct treatment. We apply multi-specialty regimens including Chiropractic adjustments and American medical technology systems (including ultrasound technology) to bring the best results, shorten treatment time and ensure safety for all subjects.
