Before receiving TotalWave Therapy in Mobile at Connexus, we recommend:
- Wear comfortable clothing. Depending on your treatment area, you may be required to assume different positions for the most effective delivery of the TotalWave Therapy acoustic energy.
- Don’t use pain-relief drugs for at least two weeks before your first treatment. It’s unfortunate, but these pain-management drugs could cause unwated side effects during your therapy. Once TotalWave Therapy treatments start, you should feel drastic improvement in or elimination of pain.
- Continue your other therapies. TotalWave Therapy is part of an overall wellness regimen to not only eliminate the pain, but to keep it from returning.
- Ask questions. The more you understand how TotalWave Therapy in Mobile works for pain relief, and how to support your results afterwards, the better you can achieve optimum results.
To properly care for and get the most out of TotalWave Therapy in Mobile, we recommend following after your sessions:
- Drink plenty of water. Your body will go to work immediately building new tissue and new blood vessels in the treatment area, along with your lymphatic system removing toxins and disrupted tissues. Make sure your body has enough hydration to do what it does best—heal!
- Stay active. Movement is healthy. It keeps joints more limber, and gets blood flowing better for increased oxygenation. After TotalWave Therapy you don’t want to overdo it with high-impact or aggressive exercise, but walking and gentle-stretching have therapeutic value in and of themselves.
- Eat healthy. Processed foods in general, and refined sugar in specific, contribute to issues such as Inflammation, joint pain, general fatigue, and more. Pay attention to what you eat, and try to choose the foods that benefit your body.
- Follow through on all treatments. TotalWave Therapy usually requires 3 to 6 treatment sessions over the same number of weeks. During each session results are assessed so that effectiveness can be maximized.
