Physical therapy: Physical therapy techniques, such as laser treatment, have been used to clean and heal wounds. Early evidence also suggests that high voltage stimulation or pulsed electrical stimulation may speed the healing of some types of skin ulcers. More research with similar outcomes measures is needed to confirm these findings. Individuals with leg ulcers may need special care during physical therapy due to compromised skin integrity. A healthcare professional will determine what is best for each individual.Natural Standard Monograph, Copyright © 2008 (www.naturalstandard.com).
