<p>An ultrasonic living body stimulation device has an ultrasonic probe (1) where ultrasonic vibrators (3<SUB>1</SUB>, 3<SUB>2</SUB>, ..., 3<SUB>10</SUB>) are arranged on a plane surface, the ultrasonic vibrators (3<SUB>1</SUB>, 3<SUB>2</SUB>, ..., 3<SUB>10</SUB>) being fixedly attached to a living body; a drive circuit section (12) as a drive means (12) for generating drive electric power supplied to the individual ultrasonic vibrators (3<SUB>1</SUB>, 3<SUB>2</SUB>, ..., 3<SUB>10</SUB>); and a vibrator switching section (13) as a switching means for supplying the drive electric power from the drive circuit section (12) to the ultrasonic vibrators (3<SUB>1</SUB>, 3<SUB>2</SUB>, ..., 3<SUB>10</SUB>), the power supply being performed in a switching manner so that ultrasonic energy emitted from the individual ultrasonic vibrators (3<SUB>1</SUB>, 3<SUB>2</SUB>, ..., 3<SUB>10</SUB>) of the ultrasonic probe (1) is at a level not locally concentrated.</p> |
