Piezowave treats pain in 30 mins.

-

A lot of people go through days with a seemingly nagging pain that doesn’t seem to get better. Fortunatel­y, Epic Performanc­e and Fitness has a solution: a new offering meant to expedite the body’s healing processes and reduce the onset of pain within a 30-minute therapy session.

Piezowave therapy is an extremely effective and non-invasive solution to pain associated with the musculoske­letal system. It delivers a series of percussion to the area being treated. These mechanical pulses travel through the body causing calcific fibroblast­s to break down, which in turn provokes metabolic activity that then promotes and stimulates healing in the affected tissue. This form of treatment eliminates pain, facilitate­s healing, increases circulatio­n, promotes the production of collagen and even reduces muscle tension.

How quickly is pain managed with this type of therapy? Pain can be gone in as quickly as six sessions. Pio Solon, program director of Epic Performanc­e and Fitness, said: “We’ve seen first hand from clients who come to Epic asking for a better way to treat their injuries and the pain that ails them. We don’t want to have an interventi­on wherein patients come in for one-hour sessions spread over months. We wanted a fast-acting solution so our patients and clients can go back to the activities they love doing most or are actually pain-free so they can live life to the fullest.”

“On the average, we are seeing at least a 50 percent reduction of pain, and an increase of the range of motion on the affected area. This means that the patients can move without the fear of pain, and hasten the recovery process through sound exercise and physical therapy.”

The illnesses that could be treated with Piezowave are arthritis, low back pain, frozen shoulder, tendon injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, knee pain and ankle pain.
