Ultrasound therapy is one of the widely used physiotherapeutic treatment methods at the "Kuyalnik" Sanatorium. This safe and effective method of influencing the human body is actively used by the resort's doctors for the prevention and treatment of a wide range of diseases.
Ultrasound is sound waves with a frequency exceeding the upper limit of human hearing (20 kHz). As they pass through the body's tissues, ultrasonic waves have a whole complex of physiological effects. As a result of the mechanical, thermal, and other types of ultrasound exposure, important biochemical and biophysical changes occur in the tissues, triggering healing processes.
The main effects of ultrasound therapy:
- Increased permeability of cell membranes and improved metabolic processes in tissues. This contributes to the accelerated intake of nutrients into cells and the removal of waste products.
- Increased local blood circulation and vascular dilation. Improved microcirculation accelerates regeneration and resorption of inflammation foci.
- Anti-edema and anti-inflammatory effect. Ultrasound has a pronounced anti-edema effect, reducing the permeability of vascular walls and contributing to the resorption of edema.
- Analgesic effect. Due to the effect of ultrasound on sensitive nerve endings, pain impulses are blocked.
- Acceleration of tissue regeneration. Ultrasound stimulates the healing process and restoration of damaged structures.
At the "Kuyalnik" Sanatorium, ultrasound exposure is carried out by highly qualified specialists using modern equipment. Before the procedure, the doctor thoroughly examines the patient and determines the individual parameters of the ultrasound exposure - intensity, duration, and technique. This allows achieving the maximum therapeutic effect and ensuring the safety of the procedure.
Thus, ultrasound therapy occupies an important place in the comprehensive treatment and rehabilitation of patients at the "Kuyalnik" Sanatorium. This physiotherapy method is characterized by high efficiency, safety, and good tolerance, allowing for sustainable positive results.
