Phonophoresis for Children in Bila Tserkva

Phonophoresis is a method of ultrasound therapy widely used in the treatment of children and teenagers. CSM Clinic provides phonophoresis for children in Bila Tserkva. We have a large physiotherapy department equipped with modern devices. The phonophoresis procedure is performed by highly qualified physiotherapists-occupational therapists on the latest version of the BTL-4825SL PREMIUM device.

Phonophoresis is a method of delivering medications using ultrasound waves. The medications penetrate through the skin directly into a specific area of the body without affecting neighboring tissues and organs. This may substantially reduce the risk of side effects and support the effectiveness of treatment.

Phonophoresis: Indications

Ultrasound treatment is used in various fields of medicine, including pediatric orthopedics, neurology, traumatology, and surgery. By increasing tissue permeability, ultrasound can improve the action of medications. Ultrasound phonophoresis is often included in programs of sports rehabilitation and physical rehabilitation for children. Most often, ultraphonophoresis uses gels and ointments with anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and vasodilating effects.

A course of phonophoresis may help with a number of problems:

• improves blood circulation;
• relieves muscle spasm;
• activates metabolic processes in the body;
• may reduce pain and inflammation in the treated area through deep penetration of the active substance of the medication.

The procedure is generally considered safe for children and rarely causes adverse reactions. A child's body is very sensitive to the action of some medications. Targeted delivery of the medication helps avoid side effects and may improve the effectiveness of treatment.

Features of Phonophoresis in Treating Children

CSM Clinic specialists use ultrasound therapy methods for children. Phonophoresis sessions are performed by highly qualified physiotherapists-occupational therapists with the participation of experienced pediatric neurologists.

Ultrasound increases the permeability of cell membranes and speeds up metabolic processes in the child's body. This provides a kind of massage of cells and tissues. Ultrasound treatment has anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, and pain-relieving effects. The thermal energy into which ultrasound is converted stimulates redox processes and increases lymphatic drainage in the vessels. As a result, pain may be relieved and swelling reduced.

During a phonophoresis session for children, 2 operating modes are used: pulsed and continuous. The continuous mode gives a more active thermal effect on the body, while the pulsed mode is considered gentler.

The procedure is performed by a qualified specialist using gels, ointments, and special ultrasound devices. To take a course of phonophoresis, you first need a consultation with a pediatrician or a pediatric neurologist. The doctor will determine the stage of the disease, assess the features of its course, and draw up an individual treatment plan. Based on the data obtained, the goal of therapy and the number and duration of phonophoresis sessions are determined.

Phonophoresis for children is performed as follows:

• the skin in the treatment area is cleaned;
• the medication is applied;
• the skin is treated with an ultrasound probe;
• any remaining medication is removed from the child's skin.

The procedure should not cause discomfort or pain; the child may feel warmth where the probe is applied.

Results of Phonophoresis

Thanks to the positive effect of ultrasound therapy on a child's body, the symptoms of many conditions may be reduced. After phonophoresis, a decrease in neurological disorders may be observed. After the procedures, pain and swelling in the area exposed to ultrasound may be relieved. Depending on the nature of the pathology, the aim is to help the child return to their usual way of life.
