This gadget from CoolSense is an ingenious device. Kept in the freezer, then placed on the skin for a few seconds it reduces skin sensation by cooling the skin, enabling us to inject the skin without pain. It basically replaces the need to use local anaesthetic injections prior to prolotherapy and it works remarkably well. After use we clean the head with cavicide which thoroughly disinfects the unit.
 The Thera Cane
Self-treatment helps your recovery and continues the healing process. Here is another gadget should you have trigger points in hard-to-reach places, which can help to work on breaking up trigger points and stimulating the blood flow to these muscles.  Gizmos and Gadgets: the CranioCradle
This foam device can be placed under your neck or back to help relieve tension and pain. It provides a gentle but continuing pressure which leads to muscle relaxation and increased movement. More information can be found on the CranioCradle website and we also stock these so please ask us about them. |
