Testimonial From Gil and Chella Reyes
Regarding: Pain
View More TestimonialsOn May 15th we decided to have a right shoulder acromioplasty performed. This was done by Dr. Joseph Mayo in Placientia, Ca.
The surgery went well, although there was more damage to the tendon than the doctor had anticipated. He repaired the tendon and removed some of the bone that was causing the impingment. He said the recovery would take 6-8 weeks minimum, due the extent of the damage.
Approximately 2 weeks after surgery Dr Mayo ordered therapy as before. Range of motion, TENS treatments and ice. At this time we began using your Alpha-Stim® 100 at home. The therapists were very impressed with the unit and highly recommended it’s use. They instructed Chella on how to use the Alpha-Stim® 100 followed by ice packs. She continued the therapy for another 3 weeks. By then she had full range of motion with no pain.
The doctors and therapists had never seen anyone recover so quickly.
Instead of the 6-8 weeks Chella had full range of motion in 4-5 weeks, and the pain in the left shoulder is nearly gone. She may not need surgery on the other shoulder if we continue the Alpha-Stim® treatments.
In addition to the shoulder treatments, Chella is using the Alpha-Stim® 100 ear clips to help with anxiety and insomnia, which she has had all her adult life. The results are encouraging.
