NFL Athletic-Trainers Recognize Wearable Sustained Acoustic Medicine Therapy as Breakthrough Treatment for Fast Healing of Player Injuries
TRUMBULL, Conn., April 6, 2020 (Newswire.com) - With about four months to go before NFL team training camps begin, athletic-trainers and physicians review the best treatment options for the healing players that will suffer acute and chronic injuries during camp and over the regular season.
At a roundtable held at the recent NFL Combine meetings, NFL medical staff unanimously testified that sustained acoustic medicine (sam®), which players wear and it sends low-intensity ultrasonic waves to injured areas for multiple hours a day, has been the only treatment they have used that can heal a range of injuries, completely restoring and strengthening damaged tissue, often in a matter of weeks.
The athletic-trainers confirmed that the ZetrOZ Systems sam® 2.0 long-duration ultrasound device has both accelerated the healing time dramatically of such acute and chronic player injuries as or related to distal MCLs, hamstring pulls, high-ankle sprains, post-tib tendon damage etc., while also being embraced by players as a device that is easy to wear, even while sleeping or doing other activities, that provides effective, ongoing pain relief, inside or outside of the locker room.
“All of our players speak to each other while rehabbing and share what they are using for their injuries and how it is working to heal them”, said Kyle Davis, athletic-trainer for the Indianapolis Colts. “We explain sam®; treats the injury at the depth of a grapefruit and creates new cellular and tissue growth and stimulation. We tell them that if you wear this long enough, you will feel better.”
All of the athletic-trainers at the Combine commented on the versatility of the sam® device, in that it can be used for treating everything from contusions to major tendon damage-related injuries and, in some cases, has significantly reduced the need to treat players with anti-inflammatory medicines to reduce their pain. The athletic-trainers also say that sam® therapy has also served as a reliable tool for increasing trust and relationships between trainers and players, who have expressed greater confidence in their treatment regimens and that they will get well and recover from their injuries quickly.
“We were delighted at the feedback we received from the NFL professional athletic-trainer community, that our sam® device has represented a quantum leap in how well players are responding to the therapy and is accelerating the time they can get back on the playing field," said George Lewis, President & CEO of ZetrOZ Systems. “They are able to heal, experience minimal pain, and often forget they are even wearing it. We look forward to continuing to support NFL professional athletic-trainers with further advances in sustained acoustic medicine therapy that produce the best possible health and recovery outcomes for severely and chronically injured NFL players.”
