Though typically recognized from OBGYNS, the practice of using ultrasound is also found in pain management intervention by healthcare professional.
Ultrasound Therapy is a type of pain-management which uses sound waves to generate vibrations onto the skin of the applied area. These vibrations transmit energy in the form of heat all the way to the skin’s molecular level, which enables blood flow to increase around the area of application. With the use of our Flexall Gel, its anti-inflammatory properties will penetrate the skin to reduce the pain and swelling after harm is caused.

- Muscle spasms typically occur from certain over contraction or cramp conditions eg; Waking up with a neck stiffness and tension due to sleeping on one side of the body thus causing neck muscle spasm. Ultrasound aid in increasing circulation of blood flood and relaxes muscle fiber to release stiffness and spasm.
