Gentle, Targeted Healing from the Inside Out
At Phoenixville Chiropractic, we use advanced therapeutic ultrasound to help our patients recover from injury, manage pain, and heal faster—without the use of medication or invasive procedures. This safe, non-invasive treatment is an effective way to support soft tissue healing and improve overall musculoskeletal health.
What Is Therapeutic Ultrasound?
Therapeutic ultrasound is a physical therapy modality that uses high-frequency sound waves to penetrate deep into muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Unlike diagnostic ultrasound used for imaging, this technique is designed to produce gentle heat within soft tissues, stimulate cellular activity, and promote circulation where it’s needed most.
Benefits of Ultrasound Therapy
Patients at Phoenixville Chiropractic often experience:
-
Reduced inflammation and swelling
-
Faster healing of soft tissue injuries
-
Improved blood flow to damaged areas
-
Decreased muscle spasms
-
Relief from pain and stiffness
Ultrasound is especially helpful for chronic injuries or post-acute recovery when tissue repair has stalled.
Conditions We Treat with Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy is frequently used to help treat:
-
Tendonitis

If you're dealing with a lingering injury or chronic pain that hasn't responded to other treatments, therapeutic ultrasound may be a smart addition to your care plan.
What to Expect During Treatment
Ultrasound therapy is quick, painless, and comfortable. Dr. Andrew Timar or a trained team member will apply a special gel to the skin and move the ultrasound wand in slow, circular motions over the treatment area. Most sessions take just a few minutes and can be performed as part of a larger treatment plan.
Many patients notice improvements in mobility and pain after just a few sessions. And because ultrasound therapy helps prepare the tissues, it can make other treatments—like adjustments or soft tissue work—even more effective.
Why Choose Phoenixville Chiropractic?
Dr. Andrew Timar takes a personalized approach to every patient’s care. Ultrasound therapy is never used in isolation—it’s carefully integrated with other treatments like chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, or therapeutic exercise to deliver the best possible outcome. You won’t find cookie-cutter care here—just effective, thoughtful treatment that puts your needs first.
