Understanding combo electrotherapy + ultrasound
Combo electrotherapy + ultrasound is one of the pieces of equipment installed at our Katpadi Road clinic. Technology alone does not fix problems — but paired with a hands-on physiotherapist, the right device speeds up recovery, gives objective feedback, and makes higher-dose training safe.

How Vellore Physio treats combo electrotherapy + ultrasound
Precise assessment
Detailed 45-minute assessment covers movement, strength, neurology, function and lifestyle — with a plan you can read.
Family-first
Caregivers are trained in every session. You leave able to continue the work at home.
Time-boxed
Progress is reviewed at 2 and 4 weeks. No open-ended packages, no drip-fed sessions.
Evidence-first
Only treatments with real evidence for your condition — no unproven modalities.
Active rehab
Every session includes movement and loading. Passive-only treatment plans aren't offered here.
Outcome-tracked
Objective measures — ROM, strength, walking speed, balance, PROMs — tracked at every review.
Typical recovery timeline
| Phase | When | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Screening | Session 1 | Confirm indication, screen contraindications, take before-photos or objective measures. |
| Loading | Sessions 2–4 | Start with conservative dosing and build response — combined with hands-on rehab. |
| Progression | Sessions 4–8 | Escalate intensity or complexity based on your response, add task-specific practice. |
| Discharge | Session 8+ | Transition to independent home programme with a review at 4 weeks. |
What the guidelines say
Every piece of equipment at Vellore Physio is chosen because there is peer-reviewed evidence that it improves outcomes when used in the right patient at the right dose. We service equipment on schedule and clinicians complete annual competency reviews.
Benefits

Trade-offs
