    weeks 4,5 While, about 40 percent of LBP patients have recurrences within 6 months6 There are many options for LBP treatments such as spinal manipulative therapy (SMT), deep massage, therapeutic exercise, ultrasound therapy, and heat or cold modalities7... Among these modalities, they have their own specific therapeutic effects with different physiological explanations. Spinal manipulative therapy or SMT includes both manipulation and mobilization. Manipulation is a high velocity thrust of small amplitude

    A capsular dilatation facilitated shoulder manipulation for treating patients with frozen shoulder
    (2002-06-01) Somsak Kuptniratsaikul; Tawechai Tejapongvorachai; Vilai Kuptniratsaikul; Pibul Itiravivong; Chulalongkorn University; Mahidol University
    Forty patients with a diagnosis of frozen shoulder who had symptom for an average of 8 months and failed conservative treatment of at least 6 weeks of physical therapy were treated with capsular dilatation facilitated shoulder manipulation. Post...-manipulation, the patient underwent arthroscopy for visualization, fibrin debridement and bleeding point coagulation. All the essential intraarticular structures ie, glenohumeral ligament, rotator cuff were intact. Post-operatively, all patients revealed

    The low frequency ultrasonic wave caused cell lysis and modulated dielectrophoresis property in breast cancer cell line
    (2015-01-01) Chinnawich Phamornnak; Adisorn Tuantranont; Bovornlak Oonkhanond; Mahidol University; Thailand National Electronics and Computer Technology Center
    © 2014 IEEE. Various methods of cell manipulation have been applied for cancer treatment including ultrasonic manipulation like sonodynamic therapy and high intensity focus ultrasound (HIFU). The effects of ultrasonic wave are divided into 2 types...; thermal and non-thermal effect, which is generated by high and low frequency respectively. Low frequency of ultrasonic manipulation is very interesting due to enhancement of cell poration. In this study, human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231
