Many of us face pain on a daily basis for a number of reasons. For some the pain stems from an illness, advanced age, injury or an accident. Whatever the cause we seek anything that can help alleviate the pain from over the counter medications to acupuncture, massage, injections and surgery. Sound familiar? But when that doesn’t work many people end up on prescription medications including narcotics that can lead to even more problems.
As you know, if you are in chronic pain it can affect almost every area of your life. It’s time to get your life back with a treatment that has no medications, no injections and no manipulations. You owe it to yourself to experience the difference with something that works. We have found that 100% of our patients who have tried sonic wave technology experience improvement.
It is completely safe and drug free and in many cases has provided relief to patients who have tried everything else with no longterm success.
The science:
Sonic wave therapy is a relatively simple technology. It delivers invisible sonic waves that penetrate deep into painful muscles, tendons or joints. These waves stimulate the tissue which helps the tissue heal by increasing blood flow to the area while also helping to increase circulation and decrease or eliminate inflammation. The result? A significant or complete reduction in pain.
Richard Wolf developed this unique technology which is a linear focused pressure wave as opposed to a pinpoint focus wave generated by more conventional pressure wave sources. This linear pressure wave creates a more uniform and more effective focal area. Gel pads are used to adjust the penetration depth to a depth between 0 and 20 mm.
How does the sonic wave relieve pain?
The area you feel pain is not always where the source of your pain is generated. The technologist, with your help, will find the focal zone. Once it is located, the focal zone will be where the pressure waves steepen to create maximum mechanical pressure on the tissue in that area. The pressure waves are generated precisely on the targeted tissue with the right amount of energy. The focused acoustic compression force is translated to the tissue like an extremely precise deep tissue massage.
How is this different from light or laser therapy?
Rather than light, or laser treatment, thermal energy (ultrasound treatment) is used to help promote healing by delivering mechanical energy. The result? Fewer therapy applications are needed to receive optimal results.
