Phonophoresis

Phonophoresis is a non-invasive way of administering medications to tissues below the skin using the Ultrasound machine.  This is perfect for patients who are uncomfortable with injections or when the area is not appropriate for an injection. With this technique, the ultrasonic energy facilitates the delivery of the medication through the skin. Cortisone, used to reduce inflammation, is one of the more commonly used substances delivered in this way.
