Therapeutic Ultrasound

Targeted treatment for aches, pains, soft tissue problems and injuries

Whether you've recently picked up a sprain or strain, are recovering from a sports injury, or have an ache or pain that just won't seem to go away, therapeutic ultrasound could be a useful addition to your treatment.

Some problems settle quickly, while others can linger, keep coming back or gradually start to affect the way you move, exercise and enjoy everyday life.

Our therapeutic ultrasound treatment combines ultrasound therapy with hands-on soft tissue work and rehabilitation advice, providing a targeted approach for a range of muscle, tendon, ligament and soft tissue problems.

What can therapeutic ultrasound help with?

Therapeutic ultrasound can be used as part of treatment for a range of musculoskeletal problems, including:

Muscle strains and soft tissue injuries
Sprains and ligament injuries
Tendon pain and irritation
Sports and activity-related injuries
Overuse injuries
Recurring aches and pains
Muscle and soft tissue stiffness
Problems that are affecting your movement
Injuries that are taking longer than expected to settle

You don't have to be a sports person to benefit. Everyday activities, work, exercise and simply getting older can all contribute to aches, pains and soft tissue problems.

How does therapeutic ultrasound work?

Therapeutic ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves that are applied directly to the area being treated. The treatment is gentle and non-invasive and can be used to support the management of pain and soft tissue problems.

Every appointment combines therapeutic ultrasound with hands-on soft tissue work. This allows us to work directly on the affected area while also helping to improve movement and comfort.

Where appropriate, we'll also provide simple rehabilitation exercises and advice to help you manage your symptoms between appointments and support your longer-term recovery.

A treatment focused on you

We know that pain and injury can affect much more than the area that hurts. You might find yourself avoiding exercise, changing the way you move or simply putting up with something that has been bothering you for months.

That's why we take the time to understand what's been happening, how it's affecting you and what you'd like to get back to doing.

Your treatment is tailored around your individual needs, whether you're recovering from a specific injury, managing a recurring problem or looking for help with an ache or pain that isn't settling.

The aim is to help you feel more comfortable, move more freely and build confidence in the affected area as you return to the activities that matter to you.

Could therapeutic ultrasound be right for you?

If you're unsure whether ultrasound therapy could help with your particular problem, you don't need to work that out before you book.

We offer a free pre-treatment consultation, giving you the opportunity to talk through your symptoms, ask questions and find out whether therapeutic ultrasound is a suitable option for you.
