Dear MendMeShop,

I DID QUITE A JOB ON MY RIGHT SHOULDER AT THE GYM ABOUT 6 WKS. AGO TO THE POINT THAT I CONSIDERED A POSSIBLE TORN CUFF. TURNS OUT IT IS JUST A STRAIN. AS SOON AS I RECIEVED THE U.S. UNIT I BEGAN USING IT 2X DAILY. WITHIN 4 DAYS THE IMPROVEMENT WAS NOTICABLE AND WITHIN 1 WK. I WAS 50% IMPROVED. AT THIS TIME I GUESSTIMATE 95% OR BETTER. I'M BACK IN THE GYM AND WELL ON MY WAY TO COMPLETE RECOVERY. I KNOW THAT WITHOUT THIS M.M.SHOP UNIT THE RECOVERY TIME/LOST GYM TIME WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH GREATER. PRIOR TO USING THE ULTRASOUND.I WAS NOT HAVING ANY LUCK WITH MY OTHER TREATMENT MODALITIES. ODDLY ENOUGH, I FIND THAT I HAVE A SENSE OF WHAT I'D ALMOST CALL PRIDE IN OWNING THIS UNIT. I I'VE NEVER OWNED ANYTHING BEFORE THAT CONJURED UP A SENSE OF COMFORT THE WAY THIS DOES. I SUPPOSE IT'S BECAUSE NOW I HAVE THE MEANS TO TREAT SO MANY DIFFERENT ACHES, PAINS AND STRAINS RIGHT AT HOME WITHOUT THE HASSLE AND EXPENSE OF DOCTOR VISITS. I LOVE THIS THING, IT IS ONE OF MY BEST PURCHASES TO DATE. I WISH I'D KNOWN ABOUT IT YEARS AGO. THANK YOU FOR AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT. I'VE BEEN TELLING EVERYONE ABOUT IT.

Dear MendMeShop,

I sustained a re-injury to the lateral right knee in a hiking incident on a wet path. Initially, I treated with anti-inflammatory medication, ice, elevation and knee brace. This injury was very similar to the previous knee injury, so I thought my knee would heal without seeking orthopedic evaluation. I started using a heating pad with a massage feature to relieve pain and found that the heat helped tremendously, but did not radiate deep enough into my knee. Since I am a Certified Rehabilitation RN, I started researching the Internet looking for a product that would provide radiant heat. I was happy to discover your Inferno Knee Wrap. I have been using it several times a day for several weeks and I am now pain free and functionally able to resume all activities. I still continue using the Inferno Knee Wrap on a daily basis in hopes that I can prevent another knee injury. Thank you for such a wonderful product.

More Tendon Facts:

Ultrasound can speed tendonitis recovery significantly.


A fully ruptured Tendon REQUIRES surgery. It will not heal on its own.


Except for a fully ruptured tendon, Tendonitis can almost always be cured without surgery.


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


Continually using your Tendon while it is injured will lead to a worse injury.


To Heal as fast as possible:

Rest
Use a Cold Compression Wrap
Get Therapeutic Ultrasound Treatment
Avoid Pain Killers

 

Dear MendMeShop,

I was in the middle of my training for my first Ironman triathlon in Florida, when my running had to come to a complete stop because of tendonitis in my right knee. After a month off and using the Inferno Knee Wrap for one week was able to start back where I left off in my run training and as of November 6th 2010 my Ironman dream is now a reality, finishing my training and the race in Panama City injury free. Thank you Mend Me Shop and the Inferno Knee Wrap for helping me achieve my dream.

Enhance Your Ultrasound Therapy with Phonophoresis!

What is Phonophoresis?

phonophoresis treatment for tendon damage for relief of pain and swelling

Phonophoresis involves the use of therapeutic ultrasound to enhance the delivery of topically applied drugs. Effectively, medicines contained within or under the ultrasound gel are pushed by the sound waves of the ultrasound and driven deep below the skin.

Phonophoretically administered medications can penetrate the body to a much deeper level than those massaged by hand over the surface of the skin.

When you are suffering from any form of tendonitis or soft tissue injury (bursitis, tenosynovitis, tennis elbow, tendon tears, frozen shoulder, impingement syndrome, etc.) you need fast effective relief directed to the pain and inflammation at the site of your injury. Now you can get relief, reduce, or even avoid the need for painful needles (cortisone shots) and enhance your joint mobility.

Cutting Edge Technology to Relieve Pain the Natural Way


Phonophoresis is most commonly used by Physical Therapists and Chiropractors in the treatment of localized physical injuries and is quite effective for treatment of a soft tissue injury.

As a very cutting edge technology, phonophoresis is currently being studied for the delivery of a vast array of medications. The only all natural, specifically designed phonophoretic product commercially available today is MendMeShop Lavender Infusion Ultrasound gel.

Protect Your Internal Organs

Relieve Tendon Pain Naturally and Quickly!

One of the greatest benefits to delivering medications via phonophoresis is that the medication can be delivered locally to a desired area.

Oral pain killers and anti-inflamatory drugs are introduced to the entire body in equal amounts. Even if you only need pain relief or an anti-inflammatory in say, you achilles tendon... with oral medications you end up drugging your entire body - your brain, your lungs and even your heart!

With phonophoresis, the part of the body that receives the medication is the part of your body that needs it.

What Medications Can Be Used?

Only some medications can be delivered phonophoretically. The process is dependent on many, many factors including the type of drug and molecule size which are critical.

The drug molecule has to be just the right size to be picked up by the ultrasound waves and the right size to pass through the body tissue. As well, the medicinal molecule can't react with the ultrasound gel.

The duration of the treatment and the need to adhere to a specific dose size is also a large consideration. Obviously, the longer ultrasound is used over a topical phonophoretic drug, the more the medication is delivered and the deeper it goes.

Drugs that require precise dosing, like insulin for example, cannot be controlled accurately enough to be delivered via Phonophoresis. Many natural analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs though are excellent candidates for phonophoretic application.

The Only Gel Of It's Kind!

The Most Effective, Natural Phonophoretic Gel Available

MendMeShop Lavender Infusion Ultrasound Gel is Great for Phonophoresis Therapy

The science behind MendMeShop Gel is what makes this product unique. Its ability to penetrate deep into the body is the result of an intense effort to combine effective ingredients using a precise formulation process.

The ingredients must have the desired healing properties, but they also have to be just the right molecular size to permeate the skin. In addition, the gel has to be specially formulated to allow for the medicine to transfer out of the gel and deep into the skin and tissue.

The science behind our gel is very refined and that is why it is so effective.

MendMeShop Lavender Infusion Gel is made with the natural medicinal ingredients of Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Bulgarian Lavender and Menthol.

These natural ingredients have:

  • Anesthetic
  • Counter-irritant
  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Analgesic
  • Decongestant
  • Circulatory stimulant properties and more

Commitment to Product Purity

As part of MendMeShop's commitment to bringing safe, effective products to our consumers, we continually strive to ensure that all of our products meet global regulatory and scientific standards and requirements.

I have to admit, I fully expected to be returning my order. (inferno wrap, freezie wrap and ultra sound system)

I told my wife "this is a lot of money and if doesn't work I'm sending it back", "I've got 60 days". Well after about 9 days of (2) treatments per day my sever case of Lateral Epicondylitis (tennis elbow) Is almost pain free.

I tried wearing the over the counter tendon support brace with absolutely no results. My elbow pain was so bad I couldn't sleep at night and just knew I was going to have to see a doctor. Then I found Mendmeshop.com.

I was very impressed with the quality of your wraps, very thick and made form high quality materials. I guess the old adage "you get what you pay for" speaks volumes here.

Anyway The Lavender Ultrasound gel is wonderful, again worth every penny. I'm completely sold on your products and won't be returning anything!!!

Thank you for helping heal my tennis elbow and I've already told many of my friends about your web site.

100% satisfied!

We re-formulated our MendMeShop Ultrasound Gel to include more natural ingredients, such as Natural Bulgarian Lavender instead of the synthesized ingredient found in other ultrasound gel.

We have removed unnecessary dyes and also removed all Parabens from the gel as we believe there is sufficient evidence to suggest that Parabens negatively impact endocrine function and are possible, if not probable, carcinogens.

Tendon Injury Facts:

When the tendon gets inflamed it is known as tendonitis, and when the tendons are chronically overused, it may lead to microscopic tears in the collagen matrix and causes a gradual weakening of the tissues.


Achilles tendonitis is a common injury among runners, as the Achilles tendon is responsible for helping you lift off the ground with each stride.


As computers become ever more important elements of the work place and everyday life, incidents of wrist tendonitis are on the rise.


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


Ice and Compression are the easiest and most effective treatments for tendonitis.
