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.
What does the spinal cord do? The brain and spinal cord are your bodyâs central nervous system. The brain is the command center for your body, and the spinal cord is the pathway for messages sent by the brain to the body and from the body to the brain. The peripheral nervous system is the network of nerves strands that branch off from the left and right sides of the spinal cord through openings between each vertebra on the spinal canal. These nerve pairs spread throughout your body to deliver commands from your brain and spinal cord to and from parts of your body. Diagram.
