Shenzhen Medsync International Trading Co., Ltd.
Ultrasonic Physio Therapy Device
- Product principle：
- Ultrasound has three major effects on human tissues (mechanical action, hyperthermia action, physical and chemical action).
- Mechanical action: When ultrasonic waves are transmitted in human tissues, cells and body fluids become the medium for ultrasonic transmission in the body, which can cause cells to produce relative movement between cells.
- Hyperthermia action: Ultrasound can generate heat when it acts on the body, and it can also selectively heats. Ultrasonic generates more heat at the interface of two different media, especially the local hyperthermia on periosteum.
- Physicochemical action: Based on the mechanical action and thermal action of ultrasonic waves, many physical or chemical changes can be excited.
- Product features：
- 8-inch LCD screen design, real-time display of various treatment data；
- One-key shuttle button for easy operation；
- One-key switch between pulse and continuous mode, and the treatment intensity can be adjusted in 10 levels；
- Two channels can be used at the same time；
- Combination of fixed treatment head and mobile treatment head。
Q&A
WHAT IS ULTRASONIC PHYSIO THERAPY DEVICE?
⚙️ 1. Core Working Principle
Ultrasonic devices generate sound waves via a transducer head, which converts electrical energy into acoustic energy. These waves penetrate tissues, causing micro-vibrations and thermal effects:
- Thermal Mode: Continuous waves create deep heat (up to 5 cm depth), enhancing blood flow and reducing stiffness 45.
- Pulsed Mode: Intermittent waves produce non-thermal effects (e.g., cavitation), reducing inflammation and accelerating cellular repair 67.
Frequencies are selected based on depth needs: - 1 MHz: Deep tissues (e.g., lumbar muscles) 67.
- 3 MHz: Superficial areas (e.g., tendons) 4.
🧩 2. Key Components
Devices typically include:
- Host Unit: Controls settings (intensity, duration) via touchscreen or dials 14.
- Transducer Head: Stainless steel or ceramic applicator transmitting ultrasound. Some devices feature dual heads for broader coverage 16.
- Accessories: Conductive gel (ensures wave transmission), power adapters, and handpieces for targeted therapy 57.
- Specialized Add-ons: Advanced models integrate vacuum suction (e.g., MED2 CONTOUR DUAL) to lift tissues, enhancing ultrasound penetration for conditions like muscle spasms 12.
💡 3. Therapeutic Effects
Ultrasound therapy provides multi-level benefits:
- Pain Relief: Heat from continuous waves soothes nerve endings and reduces muscle spasms 35.
- Tissue Healing: Micro-vibrations increase cell membrane permeability, aiding nutrient uptake and waste removal 68.
- Inflammation Reduction: Pulsed waves decrease edema and promote collagen realignment in injuries 8.
- Enhanced Mobility: Improved blood flow breaks down scar tissue, restoring joint flexibility 46.
🏥 4. Clinical Applications
Commonly used for:
- Musculoskeletal Pain: Cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation, muscle strains 57.
- Chronic Conditions: Arthritis, tendonitis, and post-surgery recovery 68.
- Circulatory Issues: Temporary improvement in local blood flow (e.g., vacuum-combined devices)
HOW TO CHOOSE ULTRASONIC PHYSIO THERAPY DEVICE?
1. Identify Your Use Case
- Clinical/Professional Use: Opt for multi-frequency devices (e.g., 1 MHz + 3 MHz) with adjustable intensity (0.1–2.5 W/cm²), dual channels, and programmable protocols (e.g., PHYSISONIC).
- Home/Personal Use: Prioritize portable devices with simple controls (e.g., 3 intensity levels, auto-timers).
2. Check Key Specifications
FeatureRecommendationFrequency1 MHz for deep tissues (e.g., back), 3 MHz for superficial areas (e.g., wrist).ModesContinuous mode (thermal relief) + Pulsed mode (non-thermal, for acute injuries/swelling).IntensityAdjustable range (0.5–2 W/cm²) for tailored treatment.Timer5–30 min sessions (prevents overtreatment).
3. Prioritize Safety & Compliance
- Ensure medical certifications (FDA, CE, NMPA).
- Avoid if you have: pacemakers, tumors, pregnancy, or open wounds.
4. Evaluate Accessories & Extras
- Conductive gel must be included for effective wave transmission.
- Vacuum/EMS combos (e.g., MED2 CONTOUR DUAL) enhance efficacy for muscle/joint issues.
5. Usability Matters
- Clinical settings: Touchscreen interfaces, preset protocols.
- Home use: Lightweight design, one-touch operation.
6. Brand & Support
- Reputable brands: Sonopuls, PHYSISONIC, ITO.
- Warranty (≥1 year) and accessible customer service.
Quick Decision Tree:
- Deep chronic pain? → Choose 1 MHz device (e.g., Sonopuls190).
- Surface inflammation? → Pick 3 MHz + pulsed mode.
- Home convenience? → Portable ≤500g device (e.g., 1MHz Home Ultrasonic Unit).
- Advanced rehab? → Combo device (ultrasound + vacuum/EMS).
