Ultrasound Therapy in Edmonton
If swelling, chronic tendonitis, or stubborn soft-tissue pain has kept you from the activities you love, ultrasound therapy at Action Chiropractic & Massage Therapy Clinic may assist you in your recovery.
Dr. Kenny Chan uses this precise, versatile therapy to encourage healing, reduce inflammation, and address scar tissue, often in just a few short sessions. Whether you twisted your ankle last week or have been managing a tennis elbow for months, this therapy targets the ability to move, work, and live more comfortably.
How Your Body Is Nurtured
Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency sound waves delivered through a handheld device to reach deep into your tissues. Depending on your needs, Dr. Chan adjusts the settings. The goal is to increase local circulation and deliver gentle heat, and the therapy is commonly used as part of rehabilitation for soft tissue injuries.
When chronic conditions have left scar tissue behind, ultrasound may address that buildup, improving mobility and easing discomfort. It’s a non-invasive way to encourage your body’s natural recovery process.
Deep Tissue Conditions Addressed & Targeted
Ultrasound therapy is designed to address both new and long-term injuries. It’s often recommended for ankle sprains, and it’s also beneficial for chronic tendonitis in areas like the elbow, shoulder, or Achilles tendon.
Patients with plantar fasciitis, muscle strains, and repetitive-use injuries common among office workers, postal carriers, and athletes may also benefit.
What to Expect During Your Session
Your ultrasound appointment is quick and comfortable, typically lasting about five minutes. Dr. Chan applies a gel to the area and gently moves the ultrasound device over your skin so the sound waves can reach the affected tissues. You may feel mild warmth or tingling. Depending on the size and number of areas being cared for, your session may take slightly longer but still fits easily into your day.
