LymphaCare and RevitaMed Introduce home Infrared Therapy treating diabetic neuropathy and chronic pain at starting at less than $1000!
LymphaCare has begun offering a much less expensive alternative to the widely known monochromatic Infrared Therapy manufactiued by a Anodyne® Therapy (www.anodynetherapy.com), a Florida based company. As part of its product line for circulation disorders. The RevitaMed Infrared System is designed to be the most effective and inexpensive infrared device to treat neuropathy and chronic pain. www.revita-med.com
(PRWEB) November 11, 2004 -- RevitaMed and LymphaCare are trying to help
patients with peripheral neuropathy put their best foot forward. www.lymphacare.com
In
some cases, that’s easier said than done for Adam, a medical product distributor
and director of LymphaCare’s RevitaMed Infrared Therapy product web site.
LymphaCare began offering a more effective and much less expensive alternative
to more widely known Infrared Therapies as part of its product line for
circulation disorders. Since carrying the FDA recognized RevitaMed system as an
Infrared Therapy alternative to more well known devices like the Anodyne®
Therapy (www.anodynetherapy.com), he has seen a steady increase in
patient and customer satisfaction. The RevitaMed System (www.revita-med.com) is
designed to be the most effective and inexpensive way to help ease foot pain and
restore balance.
As a former Infrared Therapy sales agent for the Tampa,
Florida based Anodyne® Therapy, Adam says Physicians, Therapists, and patients
began asking for a less expensive product with out losing quality or efficacy.
Because of the high cost, and limited insurance coverage of the Anodyne® Therapy
System (www.anodynetherapy.com), having the RevitaMed Therapy (www.revita-med.com) as an
alternative device has helped many patients and facilities in their outcomes,
while making much less a dent in their pocketbooks.
“Our patients and
medical professionals can now find a less costly infrared treatment to the
Anodyne® Therapy. With a 2 year warranty, larger treatment pads, and nearly 10
times the milliwatt power per diode, utilizing Revitamed’s Infrared Therapy
device makes sense,” Adam said. “You really see a significant technology
improvement and price difference in the two systems. But patients shouldn’t
expect to buy a RevitaMed or any other Infrared treatment and just get better.
To treat this problem, they’ve also got to follow a medical professional’s
advice.”
Although a good product, the Anodyne® Therapy system uses a
technology which is 10-12 years old, and employs only monochromatic non-visible
infrared light. Small pads with limited flexibility are strapped to a patient,
which release infrared energy at approximately 890 nanometers and only 10-13
milliwatts of power per diode.
RevitaMed’s System, which has been
available about about a year and a half, uses a newer up to date combination of
non-visible (infrared) and visible infrared light energy to promote regeneration
and revascularization of damaged capillaries by releasing excess nitric oxide
from cells.
Both systems utilize non-visible Infrared light, which can
penetrate to a depth of about 30-40 mm. This is more effective for bones,
joints, deep muscles, etc. Although both visible red and infrared wavelengths
penetrate to different depths and affect tissues differently, their therapeutic
effects are similar.
However, RevitaMed's technology also takes
advantage of visible red light diode technology, which can penetrate 8-10mm.
This is important, becuase visible lights on pads are very beneficial for
treating problems close to the skin surface such as wounds, cuts, scars, trigger
and acupuncture points, and are particularly effective in treating infections.
Revitamed’s pads are made of soft flexible Neoprene, are available in
several different shapes, and are more than twice the size of the other pads.
Revitamed’s diodes release infrared energy at approximately 880 nanometers, and
100 milliwatts of energy as opposed to others 10-13 milliiwatts.
In the
clinical setting, patients are usually treated three times a week for four
weeks, with sessions lasting about 30 minutes to one hour. This therapy is often
combined with balance training and therapeutic exercise.
“Diabetes, foot
pain, neuropathy, and finding a great product as a fair price: all of those play
into this,” he said. “The neuropathy population has many of those things, and
any patients with these symptoms who are cost sensitive and demand state of the
art technology would be good candidates for the RevitaMed. For our customers,
its like getting the Lexus model for for the price of a Chevy.
