Astar, based in Bielsko-Biała, has designed the PhysioGo 200A device to provide ultrasound therapy treatments. Ultrasound therapy used in physical therapy is a remedy for musculoskeletal disorders, rheumatic pains, degeneration. The high effectiveness of the treatments and at the same time painless treatments make ultrasound therapy one of the most popular procedures used in physiotherapeutic centers worldwide.
Benefits for the patient
Maximum efficiency
PhysioGo 200A device was created based on the experience of physical therapists and the needs of patients seeking non-invasive, effective therapeutic treatments. The device works with ultrasound heads GS-4 (4-cm2 area) and GS-1 (1-cm2 area) generating ultrasound waves of 1 MHz and 3.5 MHz. This allows the treatment of shallowly located tissues and tendons (using the frequency of 3.5 MHz) and deeply located diseases (frequency of 1 MHz). The unit can operate in continuous or pulsed emission mode.
Moreover, the therapist has the option of performing phonophoresis treatment – using a coupling gel with the active substance in it, which makes the treatment more effective.
Simple to transport
PhysioGo 200A isa lightweight device that, thanks to a dedicated transport-bag, can be safely moved in between treatment facilities. The special ASTAR bag has been designed to safely transport the device with its parts and accesories.
In addition, a PhysioGo 201A version has been also equipped with a battery enabling up to 8 hours of operation without an additional energy source.
