Accelerate the healing of your broken bone, whether it's a fresh fracture, a non-union fracture or a stress fracture, with ultrasound treatment such as Exogen Ⓡ or Osteotron Ⓡ
My wife broke her leg and our orthopaedic surgeon recommended we try an EXOGEN Ⓡ bone healing ultrasound machine. From our experience we couldn't recommend ultrasound bone growth stimulating treatment more highly.
Treatment involves placing the ultrasound probe on your skin at the site of your injury, conveniently fastened by a strap with a porthole for 20 minutes a day (eg. while reading or watching TV). Some broken bones occur where it's not possible to wrap around eg. the collar bone (clavicle), in these cases the ultrasound machine will require an additional weighted strap
Studies show that LIPUS has proven to heal non-union fractures by 86% and fresh fractures will heal 38% faster with ultrasound treatment.
Ultrasound bone healing machines are particularly well known for assisting non-union fracture healing as well as speeding up healing in new breaks.
Consultants advise how long to use an ultrasound machine and check progress by x-ray or MRI scan.
Ultrasound treatment (Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound - LIPUS) has been approved by both the United Kingdom NICE (The National Institute for Health & Care Excellence) and the United States FDA (Food & Drug Administration), and is manufactured by various providers around the world.
Ultrasound Bone Healing Systems use painless, safe, low-intensity pulsed ultrasound waves (LIPUS) to amplify natural bone healing. Just 20 minutes treatment per day is proven to advance the healing of fresh, delayed, & non-union fractures.
Bone fracture healing is a complex, regenerative process influenced by a combination of biological, mechanical, and patient-related factors. The process involves four main stages: hematoma formation; soft callus formation; hard callus formation; and remodeling. This all requires a good biological environment with adequate blood supply and a stable mechanical environment.
A bone healing ultrasound machine sends gentle sound waves (low-intensity pulsed ultrasound) through the skin & soft tissue to the fracture site, stimulating cellular responses that promote the process of bone formation (osteogenesis)
Stimulates Cells (Mechanotransduction): These waves create tiny physical movements that activate bone-producing cells, telling them to start repairing the damage.
Boosts Healing Proteins: The stimulation increases the production of proteins that enhance the body’s natural healing process.
Accelerates Hard Callus Formation: It assists in converting soft tissue around the break into matured, mineralized, and strong new bone.
So more simply put: the ultrasound turns physical energy into a chain reaction of chemical messages that tell the cells to start healing / repairing themselves.
Ultrasound bone growth stimulating machine
Whether you have accidentally broken a bone or you have a stress fracture, use an ultrasound bone healing machine daily for just 20 minutes & get back to an active life.
For Non-union patients who have a stubborn break that is not healing and might otherwise require surgery then ultrasound treatment can be a very welcome noninvasive treatment.
You might wish to Google ‘Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS)’, the word Exogen Ⓡ or the word Osteotron Ⓡ for more information on how ultrasound bone healing machines work.
Ultrasound machines are used by sports people around the world to get them back to competition as quickly as possible.
If you have multiple fractures you can treat each break separately.
The ultrasound machines have a built in feedback system to check they are working. The machine only turns on successfully when it is mounted against skin with the coupling gel correctly applied. The ultrasound frequency is beyond the range of human hearing or sense of touch, and painless.
Lots of fractures take longer to heal than expected - ultrasound treatment might be the help you need.
