How To Alleviate Pain With A Portable Ultrasound Machine

By Javier Mcnear


Pain relief is one of the primary benefits that can be derived by the use of a portable ultrasound machine. It achieves this by reducing edema and swelling. It also accelerates the healing process by causing an increase in blood flow.

The technology makes these medical applications possible through its thermal heating capabilities. Prior to development of the unit for home use, the pain-relieving waves could only be applied in a medical office or hospital. Those large size professional units produce the sound waves in one continuous wave.

The portable unit can be safely used at home by an untrained person because it emits sound waves in a pulsing pattern with intervals between pulses. In spite of being less strong, these are successful in pain relief when they can be used daily. The unit is not only lightweight but also inexpensive enough to be affordable for most people.

The technology was originally used as a way to help navigate submarines during World War II. When it was found to be killing fish, research discovered that it had heating properties. Those were researched and found capable of giving pain relief when used in appropriately calibrated strengths.

Pain alleviation is effective when used for a number of conditions. These include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bursitis and plantar fasciitis. The unit can also be applied in cases of ligament sprains, tendonitis and muscular strains.

Pain alleviation in the home is made possible by the compact size of these units. A number of manufacturers produce them in various styles. Any reliable company offers a full one year warranty for each unit they sell.

Anyone can transport this portable ultrasound machine from on place to another. Some of the units can be operated on battery power. The units were first introduced in the 1980s. The version that runs on battery power was not available until the 1990s.
