Combo: Chronic Pain – Decrease Muscle Tone-Spasm
Premod Motor
This protocol combines therapeutic thermal ultrasound with premodulated (PREMOD) current at a motor (4 Hz)
burst frequency, and may relieve pain for up to 8 hours via segmental and systemic pain modulation mechanisms.
Thermal therapeutic ultrasound heats the myoneural junction causing muscle relaxation thereby reducing muscle
spasm. Ultrasound Default: Frequency 3 MHz (superficial) and 2 Delta T for moderate heating and will increase
tissue temperature by approximately 2 degrees Celsius.
This program is used for symptomatic relief of superficial and deep pain and pain of generalized or multi-segmental
nature. Duration of relief is typically for up to 8 hours. Slow onset of relief usually within 15 minutes to 1 hour.
Target tissue is superficial and deep. Application; Monopolar, using Ch. B, place the red (positive) electrode
adjacent to the treatment area. The intensity should be set to elicit a muscle twitch. Combined with thermal
ultrasound to heat the myoneural junction causing muscle relaxation thereby reducing muscle spasm.
