exercise can help restore muscle tone, strength and function and may include isometric, stretching and strengthening and range-of-motion exercises. Therapeutic ultrasound sends vibrating impulses through tissues. The high frequency waves produce deep heat as well as a "micro massage" of tissues to increase blood circulation and enhance muscle relaxation. Ultrasound may be used with cortisone cream in a process called phonophoresis to help decrease acute inflammation.
