PiezoWave
PiezoWave is a state-of-the-art acoustic compression therapy (ACT). This is ideal for muscle, tendon, ligament, and bone repair. It recruits the body's own human growth hormone and stem cells to the affected area needing repair. These quick, non-invasive sessions will help your body continue to heal itself event after the session is over.
What does it do?
- Stimulates stem cell production and activation
- Increased blood flow by 300%
- Modulates inflammation
- Repairs and regenerates tissue
- Reduces chronic and acute pain
- Accelerates wound healing
What should I expect?
- The PiezoWave Session will be done on a massage table. During the session, you will be asked to shift positions to allow better access to the area being worked.
- It’s important to be dressed appropriately (sports shorts and for females, a sports bra or tank top). You may also be asked to make specific movements to see where we need to work, activate muscles that are inhibited, or to retrain your movement patterns.
- The PiezoWave Specialist will work with their hands and forearms (at times, elbows), varying from short, quick movements to long slow, deep strokes or sustained pressure. These actions, also referred to myofascial releasing, aid in lengthening and freeing restrictions in the connective tissue. Use of hot stones, hot towels, or other tools of the trade may be used to assist the release of Inhibited tissues and assist the activation of Facilitated tissues.
- It’s normal to be a little sore or tired, or feel a bit bruised after each session. Try to take it easy. The goal is to allow your body to assimilate the new patterns to help alleviate pain.
- Some clients benefit from Heat or Cold therapy, light stretching or yoga, taking a walk or bike ride to aid the integration.
How many sessions will it take?
- Implementing muscular and structural change in the body via Pizeowave takes some time. Things to consider: How long have you been having the pain? What was the environment of the system BEFORE the pain showed up? Pain and dysfunction is sometimes infused in many layers. We need to peel the layers away to get to the root cause of your pain. The number, frequency, and spacing of treatments depends on your personal needs and goals, as well as how your body sees and integrates the treatment changes. The biggest determining factor is YOU…. there will be homework stretches or exercises for you to do once you leave the office. These are not ‘extras’, but rather integral pieces in the healing process.
- Each session is thoughtfully organized to make our time and your healing efficient. My goal is to work on every area that holds pain and dysfunction. This requires to find the muscles that are inhibited (and activate them) and find the muscles that are facilitating the dysfunction (and release them).
- This restores the functional movement and mobility in your body. How many sessions depends on where you have restrictions: can you twist side to side with little effort? Can you easily bend to tie your shoes or pick something up off the floor? Can you walk or run smoothly? Can you mountain bike with no pain? Playing with the kids or grandkids? What movement can improve your Pickleball game?
- What we work on differs slightly person to person, depending on where you have restrictions. And this will determine your Plan of REVIVING your body.
- With all of that being stated…. You’ll notice changes within the first 2 sessions. And maybe those changes are enough for you. And if not… we’ll continue until YOU FEEL the changes and are certain they have been implemented into your body’s patterns.
