Scar Tissue forms in the body as a temporary patching mechanism for wounds caused by surgery, trauma or repetitive stress. This scar tissue is made from collagen just like our skin but without blood supply it dies, dries out, constricts and becomes brittle. Scar tissue fastened to tissues not normally connected, is called an adhesion. Adhesions can spread, entrapping nerves, causing pain and numbness or limiting range of motion. Un-diagnosed pain and restricted mobility are likely to be caused by these adhesions. Rapid Release Therapy is focused on relief of soft tissue problems caused by scar tissue adhesions. The shearing force of planar wave energy passes safely through flexible healthy tissue, but readily absorbed by the brittle, dense scar tissue.
RRT has determined the optimum frequency that resonates with the scar tissue for maximum effectiveness by using high speed video shot at 2000 frames/second. With only a 2mm stroke this therapy feels good and is completely safe. We believe that Rapid Release Therapy is the most effective way to treat painful scar tissue. Rapid Release Therapy is fast, painless and lasting.
Conditions typically treated with RRT:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Tendonitis
- Muscle spasms
- Trapped nerves
- Range of motion
- Adhesions
- Back pain
- Shoulder pain
- Ankle pain
- Headaches
- Knee problems
- Tennis elbow
- TMJ
