Ultrasound Therapy For
Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation
Professional therapeutic ultrasound systems exploiting the medical effects of sound waves above the hearing threshold. Mechanical and thermal action for tissue healing, pain relief and reduced muscle spasm.
What Is Ultrasound Therapy
Sound Waves That Heal
Globus ultrasound therapy equipment is designed to exploit the medical effects caused in the body by an emission of sound waves above the hearing threshold. This method uses mechanical vibrations delivered in continuous or pulsed emission mode.
The penetration of ultrasound waves into tissue exerts a mechanical action that results in a micromassage, alongside a thermal action derived from the transformation of vibrational energy into heat. These combined effects have numerous applications in the therapeutic domain.
Therapeutic Indications
How Ultrasound Therapy Is Used
— As an analgesic in arthrotic and periarthritic conditions — induces reabsorption of tendon calcifications
— In the presence of osteoporosis — the piezoelectric effect may have a positive effect on osteogenesis
— To stimulate healing of tissue affected by non-infectious inflammatory processes
— To facilitate resorption of haematoma
— To facilitate resolution of muscle spasm and contractures, promote healing and reduce or eliminate periarticular calcifications
— To increase connective tissue plasticity, including in cases of cellulite
The Mechanism
How Ultrasound Therapy Works
Mechanical Effect
The penetration of ultrasound waves creates a micromassage effect within the tissue — gently mobilising fibres at a cellular level to break down adhesions and improve tissue mobility
Thermal Effect
Vibrational energy transforms into localised heat within the treated tissue — increasing blood flow, accelerating metabolic processes and supporting faster healing.
