With one output, supplied with a 1/3 Mhz multi-frequency probe;
Ultrasound therapy impacts human tissues through high-level cellular and intercellular frequency massage;
Tissues irradiated by ultrasound begin to vibrate with resultant waste of energy and heat generation;
Mechanical effect
Expands through rhythmic tissue compression and decompression.
Diathermic Mechanism
As the sound spreads through the tissue it is absorbed and converted into heat.
Chemical Effect
Strictly linked to a typical phenomenon caused by ultrasound, called "cavitation", which occurs in the fluid components of tissues where small gas bubbles tend to increase their size and starts the oxidation of polymerization, and the destruction of macromolecules.
Neural Effect
It is connected with the influence of ultrasound on the neurovegetative system.
