I have had a long term case of Achilles tendinitis/tendinosis/tendonopathy, which ever suits you, and have finally been making some definite improvement through ultrasound treatment. (In addition to exercises).

The problem here is that I only receive treatment about once a week due to a high co-pay. My PT mentioned renting one for a short period and I have since been looking for one to order. However it seems that all the machines I've found are either 1Mhz or 3Mhz and nothing in between or beyond. I'm looking for a machine that will run at 3.3Mhz and a low intensity, about 0.7W.

If anyone has any experience/knowledge about ultrasound equipment, or knows a good medical equipment rental company.... I could really use some advice.

Do any ultrasound machines have completely adjustable frequencies or do they just come with maybe 1 or 2? (Besides changing the applicator)

Anyone know where I could rent, or purchase, an ultrasound unit that gets close to 3.3Mhz and 0.7W?

This is day 629 of my healing process and the first time in about a year that I have had any significant progress, so any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
