Ultrasound Therapy for sports injuries


Ultrasound Therapy for sports injuries
At my clinic locations in Denver and Littleton, one of the services I offer is Ultrasound Therapy. It is a gentle, feel good therapy but you’d like to know what it does for you.
BENEFITS of ultrasound therapy:
1. For starters, therapeutic ultrasound can help relieve the pain that you are experiencing. While it heals your body’s deep tissues, it also decreases muscle spasms.
2. Ultrasound therapy relaxes muscle tension. Musculoskeletal conditions (pain, injuries) are the second largest contributors to disability across the world. Don’t let your muscle pain continue so that you fall into that category! Ultrasound therapy gives your tissues the deep heat they need to relieve tissue tension. In fact, it affects soft tissue cell metabolism by increasing blood flow to make cells more receptive to healing fluids.
3. It increases blood flow which helps to reduce the inflammation that causes pain.
4. The therapy’s sound waves/vibrations cause your body’s tissues to vibrate which causes deep, healing heat inside.
5. Those little micro-vibrations can also affect the fibers that cause scar tissue to form – so can prevent the growth of scar tissue or break down scar tissue which can help improve your range of motion.

After getting a full work up from a neurolologist and being prescribed medications we were uncomfortable giving our child we were referred to Martha. What a life saver. Peyton is now feeling much relief and is able to go about her days. We couldn't be happier with the treatments and Martha's willingness to explain everything.
My sinuses were a mess..But after the needles and Dr. Lucas did their work, I'm much, much better!
I have seen Martha through and after two pregnancies. She helps to keep me feeling well and healthy. I highly recommend, she is great in every way!
I am trying to resolve a nerve issue in my left leg from back surgery, and I can see a difference after a couple of sessions with Dr. Lucas. I will continue to go because I can tell that the treatments have definitely helped. Thank you Dr. Lucas!
I haven't felt this good for a long time. Many chronic problems of pain due to arthritis and back pain are manageable now. Started seeing Dr. Lucas in late Sept 2015.
Martha is a weekly experience for me....which never fails to reduce stress and improve health. Martha is unique in that she has addressed medical issues for me not just pain and well-being. A significant medical issue went into remission less than 6 months after starting with Martha. Another medical issue stopped the day after I started with Martha many years ago. She is the best!!!!
First time with Acupuncture, and it was great. Dr Lucas explained every part of the process. I was relaxed and felt well taken care of. I am looking forward to my next session.
Martha has been treating my children and I since they have been really small infants. She can calm my Special needs sons central nervous system and help him to control his emotions. She has boosted all our dietary and metabolic systems keeping us fit health and active. Great post surgical realignment and boost. Whether acute issues such as cold and flu or maintenance acupuncture places a central role in our ongoing health care and medical treatment needs.
Both Really work it is keeping me off the operating table and I am so thankful for it. I Missed a few weeks for my wedding and it hurt me I pretty much had to start over but I am back to feeling great . I Recommend this to anyone having pain or stress.
