Years ago I dragged myself out of my house to see my physical therapist 20 minutes away to get Ultrasound Therapy on my back.<\/strong><\/span> It helped a lot, but was usually short lived, and I could only handle getting there once a week. Eventually it just didn’t seem worth it. Scouring the internet several years ago I found units ranging in price from the hundreds to thousands of dollars and it wasn’t something covered by my insurance. It just wasn’t an option.<\/p>\n

Today however, they have affordable ultrasound machines for as low as $40.<\/span> <\/strong><\/h3>\n

They are handheld units, and come with conductive gel and a carrying case for storage. I recently purchased one of these units and I am happy to report, the unit has yet to go back into the storage case. It sits next to me daily and does wonders for my worse pain localized to a particular spot.<\/p>\n

It does more for my spinal pain than my muscle pain, but never the less it’s a little miracle worker, and with such a low price tag and the option to use it when ever I need it and as much as I need it, it’s a godsend. I was skeptical at first because the unit was so affordable. But, while the unit I purchased is only $40 now, it originally sold for $250 when it first went on the market. So, hardy a cheap unit once upon a time.<\/p>\n

I highly recommend it for those with persistent localized pain.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can get the US Pro 1000 3nd\u00a0 Edition Portable Ultrasound Machine<\/a><\/span> for about $40 on eBay, and as low as $30 for a refurbished unit (I got one of these – no regrets).<\/p>\n

Or, you can get the US Pro 2000 2nd Edition Portable Ultrasound Machine<\/a><\/span> at a higher price tag of about $95.<\/p>\n
