Real-Time Ultrasound (RTUS) in physiotherapy is a sophisticated, non-invasive imaging technique that allows your therapist to see muscle activation and function in real-time on a screen.

This technology is utilized as a visual feedback tool to help patients:

• Correct Activation: Learn to correctly recruit and activate specific muscles, especially deep stabilizing muscles.
• Retrain Muscles: Address muscle weakness, timing issues, or poor muscle control.
• Enhance Learning: Provide immediate visual confirmation that an exercise is being performed correctly.

RTUS is particularly effective for conditions requiring the precision retraining of deep stabilizing muscles, often used in conjunction with a hands-on treatment plan:

• Deep Core Musculature: Retraining the transversus abdominis and multifidus for improved spinal stability, commonly used for low back pain.
• Pelvic Floor: Used to visualize and confirm correct activation of the pelvic floor muscles, often crucial for pelvic floor dysfunction in both men and women.
• Post-Natal Rehabilitation: Assessing and retraining abdominal muscle separation and general core stability after childbirth.

See your muscles in action and ensure perfect technique.
