Anodyne Therapy treatment is an FDA cleared treatment that uses an infrared medical device that increases circulation and decreases pain. Preliminary studies indicate that Anodyne Infrared Therapy may help diabetic peripheral neuropathy, soft tissue injuries, wound healing, and more. Anodyne is used in hospitals, clinics, physical therapy centers, long-term care facilities, and by private healthcare providers, including our military.
Statistically, 16 million people, or one in every 20 people, in the U.S. has diabetes and the prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy is approaching 100% at five years after diagnosis. In addition, many patients have neuropathy and its debilitating complications before they are even diagnosed with diabetes. As people age, the prevalence grows. In fact, in the Medicare population, the incidence of diabetes is 20%.
The following conditions have been researched with the Anodyne Treatment, which has been proven to be beneficial in all cases:
- Diabetic neuropathy
- Increased microcirculation
- Increased wound healing (ulcers)
- Neuropathy (loss of protective sensation resulting in gait imbalance and falls)
- Neural function (nerve conduction velocity)
- Pain control
