    AchilloTrain PRO Achilles Tendon Support by Bauerfeind

    Bauerfeind's AchilloTrain PRO systematically counteracts irritation to the Achilles tendon through support and compression. The support promotes muscular stabilization whilst a shaped insert (pad) with two wings and nubs massages the muscle-tendon transition. A groove running down the middle of the pad improves the drainage of edemas. Mobility is eased and assisted.

    Stability and freedom of movement
    AchilloTrain Pro uses a therapeutically effective combination of stabilization and mobility. The continuous transition between compression and decompression during movement promotes healing and improves the interaction of nerves and muscles. This is assisted by the integral visco-elastic pad, which stimulates the tissue above the heel by means of the soft nubs and longitudinal grooves. To the right and left, two additional wings stimulate the upper third of the tendon and the muscle-tendon transition.

    Gentle on the skin and comfortable
    The integral expansion zones in the anatomically contoured AchilloTrain Pro active support make it easier to put on and take off; it can be worn on the right or the left. The breathable material increases wearing comfort. The short knitted section in the metatarsal area prevents pressure points.

    Indications

  • Achillodynia (tendonitis, paratendinitis, bursitis, e.g. in Haglund's deformity)
  • Postoperative, e.g. of Achilles tendon ruptures

    Sizing: determine by measuring the circumference of the ankle at the narrowest point

    IF-4000 Interferential Stimulator


    Interferential Stimulator IF-4000 is used to treat symptomatic relief and management of chronic pain and/or as adjunctive treatment in the management of post-surgical and post-traumatic acute pain. It is a low frequency treatment that uses two medium frequency currents which "interfere" with each other to produce a beat frequency that the body recognizes as a low frequency energy source. The range is usually 1-250 Hz. The body produces frequency currents between 1-256 Hz. The major use of Interferential Therapy is to accelerate the inflammatory or healing rate. So almost any condition can be treated where inflammation is a problem.
    Interferential Stimulator IF-4000 ProMed is a dual channel unit, which allows you to use up to four electrodes at a time (two electrodes per channel).

    The IF-4000 Unit features:

  • Dual Channels,
  • Multi-mode Selector Switch,
  • Electrode Switch,
  • Power-on Indicator Light,
  • Low Battery Light,
  • Frequency Control,
  • Amplitude Control

    Technical Specifications:
  • Carrier Frequency: (4000 +/- 10%) Hz, fixed.
  • Difference Frequency: (1+/- 0.5)~(150 +/- 10%)Hz, adjustable
  • Output Voltage: (16 +/- 2.5)Volts. (500 ohm Loading)
  • Waveform: Symmetric biphasic saure.
  • Pulse Width: (125 +/- 10%) microseconds for each phase.
  • Power Source: 9V alkaline battery or adaptor
  • Four Frequency Shift: Continuous, 1/1 abrupt, 8/8 abrupt, 10/10 ramped Options.
    All values have 10% +/- tolerance

    The package includes:
  • Interferential Stimulator IF-4000 ProMed,
  • Lead Wires (New FDA compliant),
  • 4 Self-stick Hypoallergenic reusable electrodes,
  • 9 Volt Battery,
  • Hard Plastic Carrying case,
  • Instruction Booklet,
  • 120 Volt adapter.

    NOTE: Difference Between TENS & Interferential: TENS delivers a low frequency current which causes an accumulation of energy in the skin. To be effective, TENS may therefore rely more heavily on neural channels than interferential types of currents do in order to be clinically effective in subcutaneous layers of tissue. Due to its medium frequency mode of delivery, interferential currents penetrate the skin easily and may have a more direct cellular effect below the skin. Interferential current may also appear less noxious to the patient since very little energy is accumulated in the skin. Interferential therapy should not be used with a cardiac pacemaker, over the eyelids, on the head or on the front on the neck. Please consult with a physician before using an IF-4000.

    Note: This unit is a Class II Medical Device and by FDA regulations cannot be returned if it has been used.

    JStim 1000 Hand Arthritis System


    The JStim 1000 Arthritis Joint System is a proprietary electrotherapy device that works in tandem with soft, multi-layer conductive fabric and safe infrared heat to deliver effective and efficient therapy to the afflicted joint. These combined therapies are compressed against the treatment site using compression wraps, allowing the silver garment electrodes and infrared heat band to emit therapy directly into the target joint
    It is safe, effective, and convenient to use your JStim at night while sleeping. The JStim is a cumulative therapy, and should be part of a therapy regimen for 6-12 months for optimal results.
    The JStim works by sending tiny proprietary electrical signals to the joint, while combining infrared heat and compression. Working in tandem with electrotherapy, the infrared heat therapy provides deep tissue treatment. This may help the user with increased blood circulation and reduced pain, and may potentially provide therapeutic results for the treatment of osteoarthiritis and/or rheumatoid arthritis.
    The Jstim is an all natural, and non-invasive treatment option for those looking to reduce pain and therapeutically treat their Osteoarthritis of the knee or Rheumatoid Arthritis of the hand.

    The JStim 1000 Hand System is similar to the knee system, but is worn like a glove. This particular treatment setup consists of silver garment fabric in the shape of a glove, combined with Infrared heat fabric, and finally a special compression glove to be fitted over the conductive components in order to block the outside current and to give a combination of treatments to the affected hands.

    COMPONENTS:

    Soft Knee Wrap (Knee model only):
    The soft wrap is made of comfortable and breathable neoprene material, which wraps around the knee and thigh snugly, and comfortably. It is flexible, lightweight, and simple to wear. And multi-layer, infrared heat fabric is incorporated into the square electrodes patches. This wrap is one size fits most, but can be customized if needed.

    The electrotherapy Conductive Patches are used to stimulate the target treatment areas on the knee and/or hand. Two electrode pads are used in the knee system: an active electrode over the knee (red), a grounding electrode (black) over the thigh. The Infrared Heat Band is placed under the active red patch.

    Soft Hand Wrap (Hand model only):
    The soft hand wrap is made of a comfortable, breathable, conductive garment material that is shaped into a one size fits all glove.

    The Arm Band (Hand model only) is included to serve as the ground pad to activate the conductive glove. Infrared heat fabric is incorporated into the wrist area of the glove.

    A Compression glove (Hand model only) is then fitted over the conductive and infrared components.

    JStim Electrotherapy Device:
    Compact and sporty, the small battery-powered JStim Electrotherapy Device generates the proprietary electrical signal that provides the therapy. The System uses a lithium-ion battery, and incorporates a patient compliance timer so as to keep a record of treatment. The Signal Generator is dual channel so that bilateral stimulation is possible (both knees or both hands).

    Infrared heat band, li-polymer battery compression wrap:
    The infrared heat fabric technology is used in conjunction with either the knee or hand system. When activated, the therapeutic benefits of infrared heat penetrate deep into muscles and joints.

    OPERATION MODES:

    The NT mode is the main treatment mode designed as a cumulative therapy to treat OA and RA. While in this mode the system needs to be worn for approximately 7 hours per day – and used for approximately 1500 hours in total. Due to the length of use per treatment session, the JStim has been designed for use while sleeping.

    The DT (daytime) mode was designed to combat pain immediately. It is safe to use this mode as little or as much as needed. However, if you are seeking treatment for OA and RA, you should stick to a residual program on the NT mode. The DT stimulation mode will allow you to target pain symptoms to reduce them to a manageable level throughout the day if needed.

    Your JStim is set to default on the NT mode. The user has to command the device into the DT mode.

    The JStim 1000 Arthritis Joint System was designed with the athlete in mind, especially the aging athlete. It is user friendly to operate, comfortable to wear, and convenient to use.

  • Electrotherapy unit

    AchilloTrain PRO Achilles Tendon Support by Bauerfeind

    Bauerfeind's AchilloTrain® PRO systematically counteracts irritation to the Achilles tendon through support and compression. The support promotes muscular stabilization whilst a shaped insert (pad) with two wings and nubs massages the muscle-tendon transition. A groove running down the middle of the pad improves the drainage of edemas. Mobility is eased and assisted.

    Stability and freedom of movement
    AchilloTrain Pro uses a therapeutically effective combination of stabilization and mobility. The continuous transition between compression and decompression during movement promotes healing and improves the interaction of nerves and muscles. This is assisted by the integral visco-elastic pad, which stimulates the tissue above the heel by means of the soft nubs and longitudinal grooves. To the right and left, two additional wings stimulate the upper third of the tendon and the muscle-tendon transition.

    Gentle on the skin and comfortable
    The integral expansion zones in the anatomically contoured AchilloTrain Pro active support make it easier to put on and take off; it can be worn on the right or the left. The breathable material increases wearing comfort. The short knitted section in the metatarsal area prevents pressure points.

    Indications

  • Achillodynia (tendonitis, paratendinitis, bursitis, e.g. in Haglund's deformity)
  • Postoperative, e.g. of Achilles tendon ruptures

    Football Season = Injuries

    There's just no way around it, if you, your son or family member/friend play football, chances are an injury is in the future (hopefully nothing more than a sprain).  It is a tough, extremely physical sport, and injuries are a part of the game.  Luckily for you, we have everything you need to get junior (or yourself) back on the field scoring (or preventing) touchdowns!

    For what I consider the most abundant injury to plague football players (I suffered a few of these back in my hey-day), the more annoying than painful ankle sprain/twist.  Painful at first, then just a lingering slight pain for weeks, no one is a fan of the twisted ankle.  To get that extra support I recommend the Gel Ankle Brace by Ossur, it is comfy yet supportive (like all you football moms), and available in Youth and Adult sizes.

    And, don't forget the ice packs!!  A definite must have for post game wear and tear. Check out our huge selection of cold pack here.  

    Now, go out and enjoy the game (and postgame)!
