"After using the Bodihealth for the last 6 months in my outpatient office that primarily sees orthopedic and sports injuries, I can honestly say that I have not seen anything like it in the area of acute injuries and post surgical wound healing. We have seen hematoma' s disappear within 3-4 days, second and third degree burns heal in 6 weeks, and inflamed soft tissue become pain free with resolution of the soft tissue edema within days. It is not difficult to educate the patients on the benefits of the Bodihealth because the result with acute injuries are so immediate. The Bodihealth has numerous applications with a variety of patients and can be an important part of the treatment arsenal for all orthopedic and sports injuries."
Dr. Zac Baran, Adelaide, S.A.
S.K. of South Australia had shattered his ankle. Due to the excruciating pain he was told he'd need 3 months on crutches and pain killers. Yet after only 3 weeks of EPRT BodiHealth treatments, he was walking normally again, without crutches, without pain, and without drugs. "I've never seen such an amazing recovery from a fractured ankle, the absence of swelling is particularly remarkable."
Victor Popov, Sports Physiotherapist - Brisbane, QLD.
"We have been using the BodiHealth devices for the last 5 months [since 2007] at the Brisbane Lions, Australian Football Club with success. We have found it to be a valuable adjunct in the management of both traumatic and over-use injuries. I have seen some spectacular results with oedema reduction both post surgery and post trauma and some of the players report significant and rapid pain reduction. Both oedema reduction and pain removal are criticial aspects of managing sporting injuries and are integral to early return to play."
Dr. Dzung Price, Broadbeach, QLD.
" I trialed conditions such as dysmenorrheal (painful periods) with immediate pain relief within a few minutes of commencing treatment; menopausal conditions with adrenal exhaustion improved quickly; shoulder and neck pains that had plagued some patients for years disappeared after a few treatments; the pain of severe osteoarthritis of the hips was relieved to such a degree that the patient's depression lifted and she was able to take a holiday in Europe for three weeks; improvement in respiratory infections with reduction of fever and disappearance of pain within the first 25 minutes of treatment; chronic wound ulcers improving; and even cancer patients who noticed improved energy and well-being. I am very pleased to have access to such a valuable tool for healing and re-energizing difficult-to-treat patients in such rapid time."

"...as a registered nurse I work long hours and deal with a lot of everyday stress. I started using the "Jai" while I sleep at night. I have found that I not only get a better night's sleep, but I have greater energy the following day..."

"I have been treating Spinal Cord Injury patients, chronic wounds and decubitus ulcers since 1965. This included experience gained during the Viet Nam war. This experience culminated in the publication of my book on the Spinal Cord Injury Patient published by W.B. Saunders in 1991.
My experience in treating these chronic wounds includes the use of every type of dressing available since 1965. Many of these dressings took several years to obtain healing, if at all. I also have performed surgery on many of these wounds including skin grafts, rotation flaps, myo-cutaneous flaps and free flaps. The recurrence rate following surgery is high at 35%. Among smokers this increases to a 42% recurrence rate.
I have had experience using the ElectroPressure Regeneration Therapy (EPRT) Device over the past two years. The most notable effect of this device is the rapid rate at which healing commences. Almost at the outset one can see the color change to pink as blood flow increases. Non-healing wounds present for as long as 5 years completely healed in two weeks of treatment with the EPRT BodiHealth Device. Even more impressive is that so far I have seen no recurrence of any wound treated with this device. I feel that the EPRT Device will revolutionize the treatment of chronic wounds and pressure ulcers."

"My experience with the EPRT technology started approximately 4 years ago when I was asked to observe the effect of a prototype on a patient who is a quadriplegic as a result of a spinal cord injury. At the time the patient had three large decubitus ulcers on his legs. Although we were looking for changes in the state of his paralysis, it was noted that during the treatment, the decubiti healed rapidly and that there was no recurrence after one year. In 1999, I was involved with a study of 25 patients with chronic wounds at the Northeast Center for Special Care in New York. I was amazed at how quickly these wounds appeared to heal. Wounds that had been present for an average of 18 months and had been treated in a hospital setting were healed within a two-week period.
I have been a physician for forty years, 25 of which I had practiced as a plastic and reconstructive surgeon. Throughout this period I treated many chronic wounds that eventually came to surgery. Many of these were major surgical procedures performed because, in spite of the best conservative care, these wounds would not heal. Even after these procedures many of these wounds broke down and recurred. The wounds I saw treated at the Center for Special Care were of a similar nature to those I had seen previously in my career. They were of all types of etiologies such as spinal cord injuries, arterial disease, venous stasis and diabetes. They had been treated with all types of dressings such as wet to dry, hydrogel and others. All these patients were receiving excellent nursing care and yet these were all non-healing wounds. The speed at which healing occurred once the EPRT Device was applied was remarkable. Also, to date, none of these healed wounds has recurred and many have been healed for more than one year.
As can be seen from the above, not only is the performance of the EPRT Device impressive in wound healing, but also many patients have been saved the trauma of undergoing major surgery. This device can be used on patients of any age, as it is non-invasive. It will shorten hospital stays and prolong lives."

"My first introduction to the healing abilities of the EPRT device was in July 1999 when Dr. Wendell came to train the therapists at the Holos Institute in Springfield, MO. They were conducting a clinical study on chronic shoulder pain with the BodiHealth device. My offices are next to the Holos Institute and I was asked if I had any patients who would volunteer for the treatments. I thought of a young gentleman who had an Achilles tendon injury that would not heal. It had been a painful, open wound for more than eighteen months. Dr. Wendell wrapped his foot at the toes and on the calf and started the treatment. The pain diminished very quickly and within an hour the wound began to granulate. When I saw what was happening, I took photographs because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I have since conducted pain studies in my own practice and we are seeing consistent, positive results with all types of both acute and chronic pain."

"As a board-certified plastic surgeon, wound healing is not only a primary interest vut also one of perpetual study. Although conventional wound healing therapy has improved tremendously, I have always been frustrated with the length of time that it takes for these wounds to heal.
I have always had a special interest in improving and accelerating the wound healing process through the use of new modalities and techniques. I have used many herbal medicines, vitamins, and minerals combined with traditional wound healing therapies. Although I have noticed some improvement none to my satisfaction. I first came across the EPRT machine, when attending a Las Vegas anti-aging conference seminar. I was quite intrigued by the results presented and took a special interest in this technology. Like any physician, some degree of skepticism was present on my part, so, I became part of the study and quickly began to evaluate patients with very large open wound defects. I was quite amazed with my initial findings. Many of these patients had been receiving conventional treatments and the wounds were simply lingering on for weeks and sometimes months of therapy. What I quickly began to notice was the tremendous change in the quality, color, and quantity of granulation tissue that became present only after a few days of therapy. It would have taken me several weeks to attain the results that I was now getting in 7-10 days. I noticed something else, since the quality of the granulation tissue was excellent, I was now able to close these wounds in a tertiary manner and attain complete closure with in a matter of two to four weeks. In the past it would have taken me three to five months. Of course, we're talking about very large wounds in patients that already had impaired wound healing i.e. smokers. In patients with smaller wounds, the granulation tissue was again of excellent quality and the wounds closed on their own within a week or so.
During the study I was able to notice something very interesting. In one particular case, a patient underwent a mastopexy with a breast augmentation. During closure of the wound, the areola appeared dusky, in order to avoid tension on the struggling areola, I decided to leave the wound open and close it the next day. The patient was placed on the BodiHealth device and within ten minutes of starting therapy: I could notice active bleeding around the wound edges. This emphasized to me that the machine stimulates circulation, blood flow and consequently wound healing factors. This finding was noticed on several other patients after starting therapy. The device proved valuable to me in increasing circulation to the tissues that were struggling and on the verge of necrosis.
Another interesting finding was in a patient that had developed areolar necrosis after a breast lift with augmentation. Her wounds were not closing and the implant although not exposed was being covered by very thin tissues. This patient for all intents and purposes should have developed moderate to severe capsule contractures, however, her breast remained extraordinarily soft. The quality of the granulation wound improved tremendously and I was able to close the wounds secondarily. I was perplexed with her lack of contracture development and it leaves me wondering if there is a possibility that this technology may help tremendously with either prevention and/or the treatment of capsule contractures. This was an incidental finding, and it requires further studies before making any conclusions.

“In the 20 years I have been practising medicine I have never seen anything as effective for treating soft tissue damage as this EPRT technology. One of my patients had been in a wheelchair for 10 years due to neurological problems and pain in her feet, she is now walking. The sooner it is applied to an injury the more rapid the results are. I believe the implications for sports medicine are dramatic and far reaching.”

“My objective is to get my patients well. The results I have seen using EPRT technology with my patients are consistent and exceptional. I am using this technology to treat the diseases of old age, Hypertension, (stroke, heart attacks), Diabetes, Autoimmune diseases and Infections. I personally had suffered from hyper tension, and had been on medication to keep my blood pressure normal, I had 4 sessions with the EPRT and was able to stop taking my medications. I believe the future applications and potential of this technology are immense.”
