Getting over surgery or injury doesn’t have to be a long painful way.

They don’t ever have to struggle with recovering after surgery, injury or other major trauma. But for the rest of us, we’re going to be staring at a lengthy, and often uncomfortable recovery period at some point in our lives… and maybe even several points.

One of the hardest parts of recovery is getting your body back to its former shape so you can live normally again. The discomfort - or even pain - that often follows surgery is a major obstacle on the road to recovery.

That’s where HealthmateForever comes in.

The TENS and EMS technology embedded in all HealthmateForever devices can make a big difference in relief and recovery from post-surgery pain.

TENS or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is a very effective analgesic (pain reliever). It works by sending gentle electrical pulses through the affected body area, blocking the pain signals that would otherwise be sent to the brain. While particular opioid-like drugs are often used for pain relief, they are often accompanied by side effects. The TENS technology embedded in HealthmateForever is a drug-free method of relieving pain. As an added benefit, it also encourages your body to produce endorphins, hormones that work to relieve pain naturally.

What’s more, it’s proven to work. One study showed TENS reduced post-surgery pain in 94% of the people involved.

TENS has been used for pain relief in a wide variety of surgical procedures, including knee and shoulder, thoracic, gynecological and dental procedures. In some cases, has been reported to speed up the recovery process.

As well as pain, recovery from surgery often involves extensive rehabilitation. HealthmateForever is in your corner for this also!

EMS, or Electrical Muscle Stimulation, is often used (sometimes in partnership with TENS) to augment the post-surgery rehabilitation process. In contrast to TENS which stimulates the nerves, EMS directly stimulates the muscle, causing it to contract. It is primarily used for “Muscle Education”, a technique to retrain muscles and joints that are having trouble contracting and moving after a surgical procedure and/or post-surgery immobilization. Actively trying to contract the muscle or move the joint during EMS can sometimes get the brain to re-learn how to do this itself. Finally, EMS is also effective in reducing muscle cramps and spasms as well as muscle atrophy, factors that often occur post-surgery and can slow the rehabilitation process.

In some countries, thousands use these TENS and EMS techniques to ease post-surgery pain and enhance the speed and effectiveness of their recovery. With the HealthmateForever, they’ve got a device that’s light-weight, easy to use and ready to help them get stronger, faster.
