No
longer do you have to hear from your health care providers "there
is nothing I can do for your diabetic polyneuropathy." Finally,
your physical therapist can offer you pain relief and improved sensation
and help you recapture the life they once enjoyed.
Thousands of patient's are now being successfully treated each month
for diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy and gait and balance problems
relating to peripheral neuropathy using Anodyne Therapy System.
Peripheral neuropathy, the deadening of nerves in extremities affects
22 million Americans. The loss of sensation and reduction in blood
circulation associated with peripheral neuropathy causes tingling,
muscular weakness and acute pain. Neuropathy can lead to foot deformity.
The reduction in sensation makes the feet susceptible to significant
injury and infection, which can lead to amputation of the toe, foot
or leg.
The Anodyne Therapy System is a safe non-invasive patented physical
therapy modality that is FDA-cleared and Medicare-reimbursed. Arrays
of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that produce monochromatic infrared
energy are placed in direct contact with the skin. The photon energy
releases Nitric Oxide (NO), a free radical produced in endothelial
cells and erythrocytes, and is then bound to hemoglobin. NO is a
powerful vasodilator that has many published positive effects on
healing, neural function, and vascular system.
The 30-45 minute infrared light treatment has been used in Europe
for several years and is very effective at improving blood flow
to repair damaged tissues. During an Anodyne therapy session, pads
are applied directly to the skin and light energy emitted by diodes
in the pads increases nitric oxide levels in the blood. This is
especially important for diabetics, who often have low levels of
nitric oxide, leading to poor circulation, pain and numbness. As
a result of this new treatment, blood flow increases and nerve function
improves.
Anodyne Therapy System is non-evasive, drug-free and easy use.
Excellent clinical results are achieved in most patients with 30-45
minute treatments three times per week over a four-week period.
The only contradictions are pregnancy and active malignancy.
