Frequently Asked Questions

Will everyone use healing technologies during treatment?

Not necessarily. Your physiotherapist will determine whether these tools are appropriate for your condition and goals.

Are healing technologies used for pain relief only?

No. They may be used for assessment, movement analysis, rehabilitation progression, and performance support in addition to pain management.

Do healing technologies speed up recovery?

They can support more precise and targeted rehabilitation, which may improve outcomes when combined with active physiotherapy treatment.

Is therapeutic ultrasound safe?

Yes. Therapeutic ultrasound is safe when applied by a licensed physiotherapist following a proper assessment.

Can therapeutic ultrasound help chronic pain?

It can be helpful in some chronic conditions, particularly when used alongside exercise therapy and active rehabilitation.

Will I feel anything during treatment?

Most patients feel little to no sensation. Some may notice mild warmth in the treated area.

How many ultrasound sessions will I need?

The number of sessions depends on your condition and response to treatment. Ultrasound is typically used for a limited period as part of a broader physiotherapy plan.

Does therapeutic ultrasound replace exercise therapy?

No. Therapeutic ultrasound supports physiotherapy care but does not replace exercise, movement retraining, or active rehabilitation.

Is IMS or dry needling painful?

Most patients tolerate needling very well. Sensations vary and may include a brief ache or muscle twitch. Treatment is always adjusted to your comfort level.

What is the difference between dry needling and acupuncture?

Dry needling and IMS focus on muscle and nerve function, while acupuncture in physiotherapy is used to support pain relief and tissue healing. Both are based on anatomical assessment and movement analysis.
