Zap away your wounds.

 Scientists have known for a while now that electrical currents can help to heal chronic wounds.  There are electrotherapy units that are in use currently and sometimes they are bulky and complex.  This lead researchers to create the "Electric Bandage" powered by the bodies motion.

A team at the University of Wisconsin-Madison developed the bandage. It is hard-wired to a band worn around the patients torso and contains electronic components known as nanogenerators, which harvest energy from the movement of the wearer's rib cage as it expands and contracts while they breath.

The low-intensity electrical pulses are delivered from the band and into electrodes within the bandage and are in turn, in contact with the injured tissue. When tested on rats, the technology was able to heal full-thickness skin wounds within three days as opposed to the normal 12 days. 

The researchers also found that unlike the higher intensity current delivered by some electrotherapy devices, the pulses administered by the bandage posed no risk of tissue damage and was better at encouraging fibroblast skin cells to line up and produced biochemical substances that promote tissue growth. 

If you've had a wound treated with stitches, glue or staples you may have a puckered scar you'd like to get rid of. Ozone does the trick! We are now offering ozone scar release treatment to release puckered scars from the skin. The skin is connected to the autonomic nervous system and scars that are not released can cause pain in other areas of the body. That lower back pain or lower abdominal pain might be caused from your C-section scar. We can effectively change your pain pattern in one treatment. We also offer MAH ozone therapies with German medicines to speed up your surgical recovery time. 

Ozone therapies are safe and effective! Get rid of your pulling scar in as little as one treatment!
