How it works
Inside a therapeutic ultrasounds session.
Apply conducting gel
A skin-safe gel lets the sound waves transmit smoothly from the wand into the tissue.
Move the wand
The wand is moved in slow, small circles across the treatment area, never held stationary.
Deliver deep vibration & warming
Sound waves cause microscopic vibration and gentle warming several centimeters below the surface.
Reassess
We check range of motion and tenderness before layering in adjusting, stretching, or another modality.
