Chronic Back Pain Can Be Treated with Dr Allen?s Device, While Acute Back Pain Needs Special Attention to Its Cause and Treatment, Highlights Fine Treatment

Tuesday, October 9th, 2012


London, UK (PRWEB) October 05, 2012

Unlike acute pain, which is a mere signal of an immediate problem such as burns, cuts or injuries, the cause of chronic pain usually develops in an organ or a body area over a long time. So different approaches to acute and chronic conditions are appropriate, and a lasting treatment that works continuously on the chronic problem can achieve significantly better results. This is why back pain relief with Dr. Allen?s therapeutic devices is effective for chronic lower back pain, as well as for the upper spine area, Fine Treatment reveals.

A recent review finds no evidence to suggest that spinal manipulation is more effective than other therapy options for acute back pain, says Health Behavior News Service in ?Evidence Does Not Back-Up Spinal Manipulation for Acute Lower Back Pain? on 9/20/2012. It produces better results in chronic cases, though multiple sessions come at a substantial cost.

According to Dr. H J McQuay, from the Nuffield Department of Anaesthetics, University of Oxford, patients with chronic pain are unlikely to respond to conventional analgesics – i.e. painkillers. These pains often have little pattern, but are less troublesome when the patient is distracted. The efficacy dose-response curve for NSAIDs is flatter than the dose-response for adverse effects such as gastrointestinal symptoms, dizziness, and drowsiness. Increasing the dose to improve analgesia is therefore more likely to increase adverse effects than to improve analgesia.

Dr. Simon Allen’s research on The Origin of Diseases explains the cause of degenerative discs disease: over time, wear and tear processes occur with changes of their shape. In order to restore the discs, the surrounding tissue reacts by increasing of the number of capillaries and thus the tissue around them swells. The spine has a unique strong construction which includes bones, discs, muscles and ligaments, so the swelling creates pressure and, consequently, pain, stiffness and immobility.

The Thermobalancing therapy is the only way to support blood circulation in the affected area at the capillary level bringing nutrients to the intervertebral discs and improving their condition. In addition, it is reduces the swelling dramatically relieving the disturbing symptoms.

?The Thermobalancing therapy relieves lower back pain within days by tackling its cause,? says Dr. Simon Allen. ?Dr. Allen?s therapeutic device is the first effective natural treatment for the spine and sciatica. It’s cost-effective and widely affordable.?

Acadian Monitoring Services Adds MobileHelp Device to Product Line

Saturday, July 21st, 2012


(PRWEB) July 19, 2012

Acadian Monitoring Services, a division of Acadian companies and a provider of medical, fire and security monitoring for homes, businesses, and individuals, has added a new and innovative medical alert system to its product line.

The MobileHelp device is a portable, cellular-based, two-way voice mobile unit with GPS location services. When activated, the MobileHelp unit detects and reports the user?s location using GPS satellites. The dispatcher is then able to communicate with the subscriber over an AT&T cellular network and dispatch the appropriate authorities based on the subscriber?s actual location.

The MobileHelp system also includes a permission-based interactive online tool which enables caregivers or the subscriber?s loved ones to view the location of the subscriber in real-time, using Google Maps technology. Email notifications with event location maps can be sent to pre-determined responders within seconds after the button has been pushed.

?With the baby boomer generation aging and retiring, yet still being mobile and active, the traditional landline phone-based medical alert system is no longer meeting their needs,? says Blane Comeaux, vice president of AMS. ?This device is perfect for the ?on the go? senior who can still travel, drive a car and live their day-to-day lives, while still having the extra peace of mind a medical alert system affords them and their families.?

AMS operates three monitoring centers staffed by highly trained professionals that respond to medical and security alerts for thousands of subscribers nationwide. AMS has expanded over the last twenty years to include personal emergency response systems, mobile monitoring, advanced video security systems, access control, security monitoring, and telehealth monitoring.

Since 1971, Acadian has been committed to providing the highest level of emergency medical care and transportation possible. In the past decade, the company has expanded to include a diverse suite of services in health, safety, and transportation. Acadian?s six divisions are Acadian Ambulance Service, Acadian Monitoring Services, Air Med, Executive Aircraft Charter Service, National EMS Academy and Safety Management Systems.

Rifton Equipment Launches New Breakthrough Patient Transfer Device

Friday, July 13th, 2012


Rifton, NY (PRWEB) July 06, 2012

Product designers at New York-based manufacturer Rifton Equipment are announcing today the launch of a new patient mobility device. Combining three discrete functions in one compact, ultra-light frame, the TRAM allows a single caregiver to assist a patient with:

1. Seated transfers with no under-body sling (ideal for toileting)

2. Sit-to-stand lifts

3. Supported ambulation

?We wanted to create a device durable enough to handle a wide range of patient sizes and capabilities in an institutional setting yet small enough to permit easy maneuvers in the home,? says Kirk Wareham, Rifton?s Operations Manager who coordinates new product design for the company.

At just over 70 pounds and featuring a telescoping lift column, the TRAM?s compact, ultra-light frame permits superior maneuverability in tight spaces and its patent-pending body support system and low profile provides patients with the security and dignity of unobstructed eye contact with their caregivers and surroundings.

?The TRAM will be attractive for several different types of patients: geriatric patients in skilled nursing facilities or at home, non-ambulatory adults with developmental disabilities, post-op patients in the hospital setting who need early mobilization, and victims of traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury,? says Clare Stober, Rifton’s creative director for marketing. ?We feel there is nothing else like it available today.?

Like all Rifton products, the TRAM was designed and is manufactured entirely in the US at its New York facilities.
