Dear MendMeShop,

I played basketball in college back in Connecticut and now am 43 and trying to get back in to shape and back on the basketball court for about 2 years now and couldn't b/c of the adhesions. All is slowly getting better. I've been using the ultrasound device for about 3 weeks now and was able to play my first basketball game with out my calf muscle adhesions acting up. I was doubtful but hopeful at first but I now see it actually works! Thanks again.

Dear MendMeShop,

I have adhesive capsulitus and supraspinata calcification. I was advised by the specialist to rest the joint and let it heal itself with little to no recommendation re exercise (say 6/12/18 months!!!). After seeing an osteopath and researching the internet I saw your site re ultrasound and asked my physio his opinion. He loaned me a commercial unit and after three days treatment (three times per day) with exercise in the shower my inflammation was reduced and range of movement radically increased. Hence the order from Mendmeshop and I have used the Ultrasound unit since receipt. I am now back at golf with no pain from the golf swing and virtually full range of motion of the arm. Have also used to radically reduce soft tissue soreness around the ankle bone and knee hence I am very pleased with the Mendmeshop Ultrasound unit and the service provided by Mendmeshop prior to purchase. I bought two and I am taking the second unit across the country for my sons Xmas present as he has used Ultrasound to help with back problems.

Dear MendMeShop,

The Ultrasound package arrived Saturday in good order. I couldn't wait to try it for my hip bursitis. WOW, I have used it each morning and each evening and I am extremely impressed. Will follow a regular series of treatments for a few days, twice a day to see how it goes. By the way, I have not taken Hydrocortisone since starting the series of treatments. Best Regards, Stan.

Dear MendMeShop,

In response to the woman who fell and injured her shoulders and then ended up with frozen shoulder. I am a Massage Therapist and have been practicing massage therapy for over 5 years and have been studying and practicing Trigger Point Therapy for 4 years. I ordered my Ultrasound equipment and started using it on myself just a little over 4 months ago. I found that my muscles were much softer and that I can get down to the deeper layers of muscles which, when massaging yourself, can be very difficult without causing trigger points, strain, to other muscles. I had done research on ultrasound therapy for trigger points and found that it has been considered to be a very useful tool in conjunction with Trigger Point Therapy. I then began using it on my clients (making sure I was fully aware of the contraindications of use) to assist with my Trigger Point work. My clients are very happy with the addition of this tool to my work. It is very relaxing for them. Then, when I start the trigger point work, my clients find it not nearly as uncomfortable as it is without the use of the ultrasound. From my perspective, as a Therapist, I find that I am now able to get to the deeper layers of muscles where additional trigger points hide. I'm able to work with less effort on my part. And, the most important part of the therapy, my clients are getting better faster with the use of the Ultrasound equipment. So, to the woman who is getting great results from her MendMe Ultrasound equipment, I'm happy that she has found this website and has been able to take control of her own personal health. However, I would also recommend she find a qualified Trigger Point Massage therapist. I am positive that, in conjunction with her continued use of the MendMe Ultrasound, the Trigger Point will enhance and expedite her recovery time. And that will also help her muscles recover and not be so willing to go back in to the same, contracted, state they were in before. Congratulations to her for taking the time and effort to participate in her own recovery.
