Ultrasound therapy at RVA Physical Therapy

Ultrasound therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses sound waves to treat a variety of conditions. It can be used to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling in muscles and joints. Ultrasound therapy can also be used to improve circulation, reduce muscle spasms, and promote healing of soft tissue injuries. In addition, it can be used to help remove scar tissue and adhesions that can cause chronic pain.

Ultrasound therapy is an effective way to treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. It uses sound waves to penetrate deep into the tissue, stimulating healing and reducing inflammation. By using this type of therapy, you can reduce pain and improve mobility in your joints, muscles, and tendons.
