Testimonial of Patricia Boulet, Physiotherapist, Boulet Rehabilitation Services
http://www.bouletrehabservices.comHIVAMAT speeds the healing process
A unique therapy modality called Hivamat has been extremely helpful in shortening healing and recovery time following breast cancer surgery.
Pain and hypersensitivity of the post-operative chest scar dramatically decreases with just a few applications of Hivamat. It rapidly accelerates the lymphatic flow out of the afflicted area. Removal of edema in the upper quadrant is observable immediately with the deep oscillation of the affected soft tissue. Shoulder range of motion is easily regained.
In just 4-6 physical therapy sessions, patients usually achieve most of their goals and are ready for discharge to a home exercise program. Hivamat therapy has been very effective in pain management and treatment of sports injuries and has allowed us to progress patients to exercise programs much quicker than with traditional modalities such as heat, electrical stimulation or ultrasound.
At Boulet Rehabilitation Services our therapists are proud to offer Hivamat therapy to a variety of patients.
