My Doctor Was Surprised By The Results

I purchased your ultrasound device and gel several months ago. I have used it as prescribed regularly with outstanding results.

Several years ago, while playing football as a quarterback, I received a Meniscus injury to my left knee. I have had physical therapy steroids, other drugs and natural medicine which helped for a time but the pain kept returning.

I received a brochure through the internet. Purchased the device and used it regularly. During a x-ray review of my knee, I learned that the meniscus increased in thickness. Six months ago I was experiencing a bone on bone situation. The last x-ray showed a space between the bone increased to 3.25 mm, relieving the bone on bone and hence the pain I was experiencing.

Thank you so much for letting me know of the device.

Ultrasound Allowed Me To Reduce My Pain Medication

Suffering with both right and left torn meniscus, I found your ad offering relief with ultrasound.

After 1 week of following your directions, I was able to come off of pain medication. After 2 weeks, I was almost back to normal.

When I get carpal tunnel pain, usually 1 treatment is all I need. In times between , the pain is increasing.

Your products and individual help has made the quality of my life much better.

Thank you so much.

Your Ultrasound machine is the only treatment that has really worked for me

I am a 60 yr. old male from Michigan that attempted to do some roofing with my sons. I subsequently strained-pulled a tendon or ligament in my right knee. I knew it was severe enough that I knew

I was going to need medical care and/or physical therapy. However, before doing so, I just happened to be talking to an old friend who had purchased one of your hand held ultrasound machines. Both he and his wife have had very good results treating various similar ailments.

Since I had had numerous ultrasound treatments in physical therapy over the years, I knew that it worked.

Therefore, I purchased one of you Mendmeshop hand held Ultrasound devices.

Upon receipt, I immediately began daily treatments. There was some immediate relief and within two weeks my knee was back to normal.

Other than physical therapy, I have tried various joint creams and heat therapy over the years; none of which have produced any good results.

Your hand held Ultrasound machine is the only treatment that has really worked for me.

Worked For My Knee Tendonitis When Nothing Else Did

I purchased the ultrasound device for tendonitis in my knee and I noticed a decrease in pain in about two weeks. I've had this condition for about ten years and I've tried all types of things, all types of physical therapy and nothing worked. But this device definitely helped. Thank you MendMeShop.

Preventing Further Meniscus Injury

Treating meniscus injuries properly is important but preventing the injury in the first place and/or preventing re-injury should be your priority. There are a number of things you can do to keep your knees and menisci healthy and prevent further damage.

knee joint exercise to strengthen and flex your meniscus after injury

Maintain a Strong, Flexible Knee

To stabilize your knee joint and increase your range of motion, maintain and build the strength and flexibility of your quadriceps, hamstrings, calf muscles and hip flexors. Strengthening and stretching exercises will help to keep your knee strong and supple to reduce the risk of injury. In addition, balancing exercises will help retrain your position or "joint sense". A regular exercise program that focuses on total body fitness and includes low-impact aerobic activity such as walking, swimming or biking will also strengthen your knee and keep you healthy overall.

Use Proper Equipment

Invest in footwear that fit properly and is suitable for your activities or sports. Cushioning in the shoes will help to keep your knees stable during activity and reduce some of the impact. If your knee is weak or unstable, a knee brace, strapping or taping can provide extra support. If you are kneeling, wearing knee padding will help protect your joint from damage.

Always Warm Up

Your body is less prone to injury during exercise when your heart, muscles and joints are gently warmed ahead of time. To protect your knees, warm up and cool down your leg muscles before and after working them, and learn the proper form and techniques for your activity. You can use the Inferno Wrap or ultrasound therapy prior to activity to help warm up the deep tissue.

Avoid Activities That Cause Pain

If you are experiencing knee pain during any activity, stop and see a doctor to find out why. Listen to your body and decrease, modify and/or avoid any activities or motions that cause pain and irritation (twisting, squatting, kneeling, jumping, heavy lifting, climbing and running, walking on uneven terrain). If you are required to perform these motions at work or play and cannot avoid them, make sure you take frequent breaks and rest your knees to prevent fatigue.

Avoid Doing too Much too Soon

Following a knee injury, give your body an opportunity to build up its endurance. Progress through exercises gradually and work slowly when increasing the load or intensity. Allow your body adequate time to recover after exercise to repair any soft tissue damage that may have occurred. You can use an Inferno Wrap or ultrasound therapy for more complete and faster repair.

Meniscus Facts:

Knee injuries are very common, meniscus injuries occur in most sports, but most commonly occur in contact sports.

They often occur in combination with ligament injuries, particularly when the medial meniscus is involved.

Injury to the medial meniscus is about 5 times more common than injury to the lateral meniscus.

Oral medications can mask the pain but do not aid in the healing of meniscus injuries. Anti-inflammatories and pain killers can cause meniscus injuries to worsen

Ice and compression are the easiest and most effective treatments for minor meniscus injuries.

In older people whose menisci are more likely to be worn down, a tear can result from even a very minor injury.

Left untreated, meniscus injuries can be extremely debilitating and lead to life long complications.
