Therapeutic Ultrasound - Mastitis Treatment
Therapeutic Ultrasound- An effective management tool for Mastitis!
At Dynamic Chiropractic we know and understand the challenges that come with Breastfeeding. Mastitis can be a challenging condition for breastfeeding mothers, causing pain, inflammation, and sometimes infection. As a clinic that supports all forms of feeding - we understand the importance of providing safe and effective treatment options for mastitis. That's why we're proud to offer therapeutic ultrasound as a gentle and non-invasive approach to relieving mastitis symptoms and promoting healing.
What is Therapeutic Ultrasound?
Therapeutic ultrasound is a specialized form of treatment that utilizes high-frequency sound waves to penetrate deep into the body's tissues. These sound waves produce gentle heat, which helps increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and accelerate the healing process. This provides a micro-massage effect! This type of ultrasound is different to the kind that is often used to look at your baby during pregnancy.
Fast results! We mean business with Therapeutic Ultrasound!
The best thing is that is works quickly so we are expecting a quick response time- if there are persisting issues than we would also encourage a follow up with your GP. Antibiotics have been often used to manage mastitis however this is only ideal for Bacterial Mastitis and/or an abscess. Therefore if we can manage the inflammation component of the mastitis spectrum, we are hoping to reduce your need to take antibiotics as well!
