Muscular pain affects millions of people every day. For some people, this type of pain is a nuisance, but for many, it is physically debilitating, reducing their quality of life and limiting their ability to enjoy activities with family and friends.
How does Radial Pulse Therapy work?
The enPuls device delivers mechanical energy into the target tissue. The energy treatment will help alleviate muscle pain and improve circulation in the affected area. It also affects the tissue tone in a positive way, making your clinician's other therapies more effective.
Your chronic pain may be related to scar tissue and adhesions formed either in soft tissue or tendon/ligament post-injury. A treatment with enPuls effectively resets chronic scarred and hard-to-treat soft tissue. Scar tissue or adhesions often adhere to and put pressure on nerves, resulting in pain. Breaking up the scarring and adhesions helps take the pressure off the nerve and increases circulation to the area, which helps the body heal itself more efficiently. Additionally, this will improve the range of motion.
Is it normal to experience pain during treatment?
Radial Pulse Therapy (RPT) creates a mechanical stress that may cause mild discomfort during treatment. Depending on the desired depth of penetration, varying amounts of energy may be utilized to create the desired effect, and some soreness may be experienced post-treatment.
What is the duration of pain relief after treatment?
Most patients report some pain relief after the first treatment. However, the effects are most prominent after the second or third treatment. Your clinician will be able to guide you through this process, as every patient responds differently based on their condition.
How many treatments are required on average?
The normal number of treatments for most conditions is 3 to 4, but certain conditions may require up to a maximum of 9 treatments. A recovery period of four to 10 days is recommended between treatments, allowing the body to recover naturally. If a maximum of 9 treatments is required, it is advisable to wait 4 to 6 weeks before the next treatment to the same area of the body.
Can I continue playing sports or normal physical exercise after RPT?
Physical exercise promotes metabolism and the restructuring processes in the tissue. It is normal to continue your physical activities within the guidelines set by your health care provider.
