Ultrasound Therapy for Pain
Ultrasound energy has been used for many years to relieve pain, muscle spasm and to enhance wound healing. PainShield MD ultrasound has been shown to reduce pain. In addition to relaxing muscle spasm, it may exert its action via possible effects on nerves, blood vessels and nitric oxide formation. Conventional Ultrasound affects a narrow portion of tissue, while the PainShield MD action is much wider.
The PainShield® MD device solves all of the problems of conventional therapeutic ultrasound.
- A small 3cm ultrasound transducer is contained in a self-adhering patch
- The system is lightweight (3oz - 85g), wearable and portable
- The pocket-sized driver is smaller than a TV remote (39x12x125 mm - 1.5"x7/16"x4 7/8" - approximately)
- The PainShield MD system can be used almost anywhere and anytime – at home, in a clinical setting, at work or even while sleeping
- Treatment is not limited to the few occasions that a patient can visit a therapist's office. Allowing for time to charge the unit, up to two treatment sessions of 6.5 hours each can be applied each day.
- Once applied, operation is hands-free
- PainShield MD is simple to operate - one button switches the unit on and off.
- Ultrasound energy penetrates up to 4 cm below the surface and the therapeutic action reaches up to 10 cm from the device
