Ultrasound therapy is a non-invasive physiotherapy treatment that uses high-frequency sound waves to treat pain conditions and promote tissue healing. This method is particularly effective for soft tissue injuries such as sprains, strains, and tendinitis, as well as for chronic pain conditions. The sound waves, which are inaudible to the human ear, are transmitted through the skin via a conducting gel and a handheld probe. These waves penetrate the tissues to promote healing at the cellular level by increasing blood flow, reducing swelling, and decreasing pain.
The mechanism behind ultrasound therapy involves the vibration of tissues beneath the skin’s surface, creating heat and causing a micro-massage effect. This thermal effect helps to increase blood circulation and the metabolism within the treated area, facilitating the healing process by reducing inflammation, muscle spasms, and joint stiffness. Additionally, the vibrations encourage the production of collagen, a vital protein in tissue repair and recovery.
Ultrasound therapy’s settings can be adjusted, including the frequency and intensity of the sound waves, allowing physiotherapists to customize the treatment to the specific needs and conditions of each patient. Lower frequencies are used to target deeper tissues, while higher frequencies are applied for superficial areas.
This therapeutic technique is widely appreciated for its ability to accelerate the recovery process, enhance the effects of other treatments such as manual therapy and exercises, and provide a pain-free treatment option. Ultrasound therapy exemplifies the advancement in physiotherapy treatments, offering an effective solution for pain management and tissue repair without the need for invasive procedures.
I am feeling great after 3 sessions! They are tailored to suit your own personal needs and paced at your own comfort level. I felt very much in safe hands 🙂
Bartek has been incredibly helpful and professional during my rehabilitation, with his broad knowledge, superb equipment he helped me to recover quickly. I cannot recommend Bartek enough!
Bart is an excellent physiotherapist. He is an expert and is very good at explaining the root causes of conditions and what can be done to rectify them, taking a thorough, scientific approach. He uses many different techniques in his treatment, including physical training and technological treatments such as ultrasound. Bart is exceptionally good and intuitive at sports massage, it is incredible how he can find out so much about your condition and do so much to alleviate symptoms. Highly recommended.
I recommend Mr. Bartek. a man with passion and commitment. As I had many Boxing-related injuries before, I came here. After a few sessions I was as good as new and ready to go. I am grateful for Bartek's help and I recommend it wholeheartedly
Fantastic physio. Very knowledgeable and hardworking. You will have trouble finding a physio who knows half as much as Bartek about the human body. Goes straight to the root of the problem, where other physios I have tried tend to be more superficial.I saw a lot of improvement with him very quickly. Highly recommended.
Bart is great therapist. From day one I was impressed with his holistic approach, knowledge and professionalism. When I went first time with my knee injury, he explained to me biomechanics of particular areas and how one affects another. He proved to be great at targeting the areas of concern. To achieve best results, Bart uses various methods of treatment such as laser, electro, ultrasound as well as manual therapy. But his treatment doesn't end there. Thanks to the combination of his treatment as well as various exercises shown, I was able to achieve great results in short space of time. Moreover, I found sessions with Bart always upbeat and he kept me motivated throughout and encouraged to strive for improved body fitness. If you look for more than just a physiotherapist, look no further. Bart is truly specialist and he knows his craft.
With just two sessions he has managed to alleviate the discomfort that I have had since the last marathon I did, I am in the process of returning to normal, it is a shame that I have to leave for another city, 100% recommended not only for his professionalism but also for his knowledge.
Bart has great knowledge and approach to the patient. I use various treatment methods, so everyone will find something for themselves. Don't wait if you need help. I recommend it!
I recommend Bart highly. He is very knowledgeable and uses a variety of treatment methods and approaches to achieve results. His anatomical knowledge is impressive and he clearly explains why treatment on areas adjoining the problem site is often appropriate.
Absolutely the best physiotherapist in London. If 7 stars would be an option I would give him without question as 5 is not enough. Firstly released me from pain, then trained me for the pain to never come back.Physiotherapy with training is a permanent solution👊🏻
Bartek is a great physiotherapist, very knowledgeable in his field. He has taught me loads, and has helped with my lower back pain using a combination of ultrasound therapy, laser therapy and training. His upbeat personality and sense of humour has kept me motivated when I felt hopeless. Would highly recommend!
I was having pain on the right side of my body, and after a couple of sessions I started seeing a massive improvement with my movements. I cannot recommend PhysioB highly enough! Bartek has a lot of knowledge and is very professional. Always listens to what you have to say with attention to detail and skill. Also keeps you motivated to keep going alongside a pinch of great sense of humor. Thank you 😊
I wholeheartedly recommend Physio B services! After a challenging bone fracture, their knowledge and professionalism were instrumental in my rehabilitation. I was reassured by the modern equipment at their practice, including laser therapy and magnetotherapy.Physio B offered valuable strategies that fast-tracked my recovery. The holistic approach to health and rehabilitation resonated with me, and the positive energy they bring to each session aided my motivation. I am profoundly grateful for the professionalism and support I received from Physio B. I recommend them to anyone seeking a skilled and dedicated physiotherapist.
I came to Bartek with the pain of sciatica, which radiated to the leg, making it impossible to move. Within a week (4 sessions) I am able to return to work and function normally. The pain stopped and I was left with postural exercises. I definitely recommend, you can count on professional help and advice.
Great physiotherapist! I have recurrent sciatica problem and he always help me. He listen patient and always trying help how he can the best ! Highly recommend!
Mr. Bartek has a lot of knowledge and experience, he knows what he is doing. They will help me a lot to recover from the bone infection that destroyed my foot. I can see the effects of physiotherapy, the leg is slowly coming back to itself. So I can recommend Mr. Bartek.
I cannot recommend PhysioB highly enough!The customer service is excellent. I came mainly with hand numbness which was caused by postural problem. Bartek has taken time to understand my problem and to listen. I have always felt that my treatment was beneficial and any advice that I was given was appropriate and has helped me in the interim and longer term. I'm very impressed with the way the problem is analysed and how personalized the exercise program is. I learnt how to help myself. Bartek enjoys his work whatever he is doing. He is extremely professional and trustworthy. Thank you for all your care, attention, knowledge and skills.
I had a big problem with my back and tried therapies elsewhere but no one could help me. After one visit to Bart I felt huge relief. Bart is an excellent physiotherapist, I would recommend him to anyone. Customer service is perfect.
PhysioB is the place to find an amazing combination of physiotherapy, fitness training, massage, electro-therapy, challenges and fun. I've never felt particularly comfortable in a gym but with Bart's help I've been able to sustain continuous training for nearly four years. Highly recommended for treatment and training.
I went to see Bart because I had a sharp pain in my back and could barely walk. He diagnosed the problem instantly. It was, in fact, referred pain from elsewhere. In all, I had four treatments. None was painful and most were actually very pleasant. At all times, Bart was extremely professional. He has a huge wealth of knowledge about the human body which makes him a bit more than just a physiotherapist. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
