Ultrasound therapy in Basel - Deeply effective treatment for muscles & tissue
The Ultrasound therapy at PhysioART Basel is a gentle but highly effective method for the treatment of pain, tension and inflammation in the muscle and tendon area.
Deeply penetrating sound waves stimulate the metabolism, improve blood circulation - and accelerate healing.
- Effective for muscle, tendon & joint complaints
- Gentle deep action without side effects
- Ideal for chronic or inflammatory complaints
- Combination with manual therapy or MTT possible
What is a Ultrasound therapy?
Ultrasound therapy is an established physical treatment method in which high-frequency sound waves are directed specifically into the painful tissue.
These sound waves create a micromechanical vibration in the cells, which stimulates blood circulation and cell metabolism. This can reduce inflammation more quickly and promote tissue regeneration.
In combination with a contact gel, the transducer is applied directly to the affected area of the body - the treatment is painless and pleasantly warming.
When is ultrasound therapy useful?
Ultrasound therapy is particularly suitable for
- Muscle tension and stiffness
- Tendonitis (e.g. tennis elbow, Achillodynia)
- Inflammation of the bursa (bursitis)
- Joint pain (e.g. osteoarthritis)
- Scar or tissue adhesions
- Postoperative complaints
- Chronic inflammation of the musculoskeletal system
Ultrasound therapy is often Complementary to classical physiotherapy especially for persistent or deep-seated complaints.
This is how ultrasound therapy works
- Medical history & individualised coordination
We clarify your complaints, objectives and whether ultrasound is the appropriate method. - Applying the contact gel
A special gel is applied to the skin so that the sound waves are optimally transmitted. - Treatment with the ultrasound probe
The transducer is moved in a circular motion over the affected area - the treatment takes about 10-15 minutes. - Optional: combination with active therapy
Depending on requirements, we supplement this with manual therapy, lymphatic drainage or training.
