ultrasound

Physiotherapists and sports therapists have traditionally used ultra sound. The energy produced is transmitted into the tissues by a hand held applicator head. It is specifically effective on tissues that have been traumatised from injury, accident or illness. The ultra sound energy has the specific effect of enhancing the healing process.

When used regularly in these professions, it has been identified for the effects produced on cellulite and hard fat conditions. As the sound energy agitates the cells helping break up dense areas and remove waste products, it is found to have a marked improvement on the texture of the hard fat and cellulite.

Clients who previously have found alternative treatments or active exercise has not reduced stubborn areas of fat or cellulite; have seen a difference with ultra sound treatments when used intensively in a localised area.

Ultra Sound tends to be incorporated into treatments such as lymphatic drainage in the salon and is classed as an advanced treatment.

Where would I find this type of treatment?

It is not a treatment found in every salon. Salons that specialise in body treatments may offer this.
