Non-Contact Ultrasound Treatment for Wounds. Ultrasound is defined as a mechanical vibration above the upper threshold of human hearing. Ultrasound (US) in the kilohertz range (1â3 MHz) has been used for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders, primarily by physical therapists. A non-contact low-intensity US device has been developed that does not require use of a coupling gel or other direct contact.
Sensory nerves. Sensory nerves deliver information to your spinal cord from muscles and joints about your body position. They also transmit sensations such as touch, pressure, pain and temperature, which are experienced on the surface of your skin. This information enters your spinal cord via your posterior grey horn.
Messages from motor neurons in the brain (called upper motor neurons) are transmitted to motor neurons in the spinal cord and to motor nuclei of brain (called lower motor neurons) and from the spinal cord and motor nuclei of brain to a particular muscle or muscles.
