Vibrapercussor
An increasing number of research studies show Vibrapercussor massage relaxes muscles, improves range of motion, and increases endorphins (enhancing medical treatment) reduces heart rate, lowers blood pressure, increases blood circulation and lymph flow. Although Vibrapercussor does not increase muscle strength, it can stimulate weak, inactive muscles and, thus, partially compensate for the lack of exercise and inactivity resulting from illness or injury.

Electric Stimulation
Pain relief is produced through high frequency electrical stimulation of the nerve which disrupts the pain signal so that the pain is no longer felt. Many types of pain which are often relieved with drugs can today be treated by electrical stimulation with no side effects.

Ultrasound
Ultrasound used sound waves which penetrate the skin’s surface soft tissue to vibrate creating deep heat. In turn, the heat induces vasodilatation: drawing blood into the target tissues. Increased blood flow delivers needed oxygen and nutrients, and removes cell wastes. The deep heat helps to relieve pain, inflammation, reduces muscle spasms, and accelerates healing. Depending on the treatment area, range of motion may be increased.

Ice/Heat Therapy
When ice is used immediately following injury, swelling and inflammation are minimized and blood flow to the area is slowed to reduce the hemorrhage and bruising. Cold controls muscle spasms, allowing the affected muscles to relax. Warm moist heat increases blood flow to affected area, providing nutrients and removing metabolic waste products, thus encouraging the healing process. Heat acts as a painkiller by over stimulating the nerve in the skin to interfere with the nervous system’s ability to recognize pain.

Russian Stimulation Therapy
Muscle strengthening and pain relief is produced through high frequency electrical stimulation of the nerve which disrupts the pain signal and cause muscle twitching which will strengthen the muscle and relieve pain.

Posture Pump Neck Traction Rental
Posture pump cradles the head and neck on two soft foam cushions. One cushion supports the head and the other rests against the upper shoulders. Air-inflated bellows provide up to 20 lbs of continuously adjustable traction. As the bellows expand, it lifts the head upward supporting the curve of the neck while maintaining an even stretch on the front and back of the discs in the neck. Patients have total control over the amount of traction applied. Squeezing an inflator bulb increases the pressure; a release knob gently reduces it.
