      Has your doctor prescribed ultrasound therapy<\/strong><\/a> but you don’t know which device to choose?<\/p>

      Are you looking for a good ultrasound therapy device for your physiotherapy centre\/studio?<\/p>

      You are in the right place. By the end of this article, you will have a clearer idea of which is the best ultrasound device for you.<\/p>

      Before getting into the details of models, prices and frequencies, let’s find out what the function of ultrasound is.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      Ultrasound devices<\/strong> are devices that work by taking advantage of sonic waves that penetrate through the tissues of our body transferring energy.<\/p>

      As they get through, there is an increase in temperature that promotes microcirculation, thus increasing the blood stream in the treated area. This process is speeding up the healing recovery and reduces the perceived pain.
      They are also very effective while treating muscular problems and also in cavitation, capable of causing the dissolution of fat cells in the tissues.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      If you are considering buying an ultrasound device, it is of relevance to know the difference between high and low frequency<\/strong>.<\/p>

      In general, high-frequency ultrasound therapy devices have a therapeutic effect<\/strong> (and in some cases also aesthetic) and can be used both in outpatient setting and at home. Their frequency spans between 1 to 3MHz. They are ideal for treating musculoskeletal disorders, both chronic and acute, such as: tendinitis, muscle pain, arthrosis.<\/p>

      Low-frequency devices, on the other hand, have an aesthetic purpose <\/strong>only. Frequencies between 30 and 50 kHz are ideal for reducing adipose tissue, treating cellulite and regenerating tissue by promoting vascularisation and lymphatic drainage.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      Now that you\u2019re more familiar with the use of ultrasound, and with the difference between high and low frequency, it is time to identify which model is ideal for you<\/strong>.<\/p>

      First of all, we advise you to make sure, before purchasing, that it is a professionally certified medical device<\/strong>.<\/p>

      Another factor of importance is the intensity. Make sure that the chosen device delivers the intensity that is required to treat your condition.<\/p>

      Also, it should not be underestimated the possibility of carrying the device with you at all times, so that you can complete the therapy basically anywhere. A solution that runs both on battery and mains power is ideal for those who move frequently and do not want to feel tied down.<\/p>
