It address the various components of injury and pain. This encourages a complete healing process that is long term.

This involve: pain, inflammation, immune response, decreased range of motion, micro-circulation changes, debris clean-up, tissue regeneration = injury and pain resolution. However a disruption to this process is what triggers the chronic or persistent injury and pain syndromes. What we do at our clinics is to restimulate an orderly healing response to re-engage and resolve the chronic issue.

It induces the body's natural anti-inflammatory process, improves tissue circulation and lymphatic flow, and regulates collagen regeneration among other biocellular growth factors improtant for recovery.
