PAIN MANAGEMENT – INCREASE LOCAL CIRCULATION- DECREASE TONE-SPASM
Sub-thermal and thermal ultrasound is used in protocols for pain management, increasing local circulation
and decreasing muscle tone and spasm. The clinician starts with a low sub-thermal dose in high acuity cases
and increases the dose as the inflammatory response moves from an acute to chronic condition.
Post Traumatic Post-Surgical Pain – Acute Muscle Tone Spasm
This sub-thermal protocol is used to reduce pain, increase circulation, and decrease muscle hypertonicity
in the superficial tissues using 3 MHz or deeper tissues using 1 MHz. Apply the US over an area that is
twice the Transducer size for five minutes. Three areas would provide a 15 minute treatment.

Sub-Acute Pain – Increase Local Circulation
This protocol uses a 1
o
C temperature increase to increase the metabolic rate and provide mild heating. It
is used to decrease sub-acute pain, increase circulation and provide an acceleration of the inflammatory
phase of healing.
