A therapeutic method for reducing the incidence of adhesions which are likely to form in regions of inflamed body tisssues is disclosed. This method comprises the step of exposing inflamed tissues, such as tissues in the region of recent surgery, to infrasound to reduce the incidence of adhesion formation.
