What is Anodyne Therapy?
Anodyne emits monochromatic infrared photo energy (MIRE™) to substantially increase
local circulation and temporarily reduce pain. Anodyne has been designed to maximize
the effectiveness of infrared photo energy using highly efficient light emitting
diodes (LEDs) placed in direct skin contact.
Anodyne Therapy helps patients with:
- Diabetic Neuropathy
- Wounds
- Arthritis
- Stroke Patients
- Circulatory Problems
- Pain
- Poor Gait and Balance
- Loss of Sensation
What should you expect from our program?
Pain is often the first symptom to improve in our program, while functional improvements
may take more therapy. Most patients say that Anodyne Therapy feels warm and soothing.
Others say they feel some tingling and pulsing. This is normal as blood flow returns to
the area. Some patients respond very quickly in our comprehensive program, while others
take longer based on their degree of impairment.
Our treatment plan usually involves 10 to 24 therapy sessions.
Therapy may include any or all of the following interventions, depending on the
patients’ particular needs:
- Anodyne Therapy to reduce pain and increase circulation to impaired tissues and nerves
- Stretching and strengthening exercises
- Dynamic and static balance exercises
- Massage and the use of other therapeutic modalities for pain
- Sensory integrative techniques to put it all together
Are there any side effects?
No side effects have been reported as long as Anodyne Therapy is properly used and
monitored. If you have diabetes, check your blood sugars often during any change in
therapy or activity. Always follow the directions of your doctor or therapist when
using Anodyne Therapy.
