Therapeutic Ultrasound is one of the most widely used and highly effective modalities in modern physical therapy. Unlike diagnostic ultrasound (which is used to see inside the body), therapeutic ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to penetrate deep into soft tissues, providing micro-massage and deep heating effects.
Advanced Technology & Clinical Precision
At Viva Physio in Nasr City, our units are equipped with the latest generation of ultrasound technology. Under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Abeer Elwishy, our specialists carefully calibrate the frequency and intensity of the sound waves to match the exact depth and severity of your tissue injury, ensuring optimal cellular repair without damaging surrounding structures.
