Therapeutic Ultrasound

Therapeutic ultrasound uses sound waves to gently warm deep tissue, easing stiffness and supporting the body's natural healing process. It's a common part of chiropractic care for patients dealing with muscle strain, joint pain, or lingering inflammation from an injury.

How It Helps

Pain Relief — Sound waves penetrate below the skin to soothe sore muscles and joints.
Reduced Inflammation — Gentle heating effects can help calm swelling in affected tissue.
Improved Mobility — Loosening tight tissue can make movement more comfortable during recovery.

Part of a Broader Care Plan

At Zeren Health, our chiropractors, including Dr. Mitchell Zeren, DC, and Dr. Paul Maselli, DC, may use therapeutic ultrasound alongside other on-site options such as manual therapy and joint mobilization, electrical stimulation, or rehabilitative exercise equipment, depending on what each patient's recovery calls for.

Who Seeks This Therapy

Patients often turn to therapeutic ultrasound after strains, sprains, or work, auto, and sports-related injuries, or when ongoing muscle tension is limiting daily activity. It's typically considered when a provider determines that deep-tissue treatment could support the healing process.
