Are you suffering from
chronic pain due to a sports injury, Arthritis, Carpal Tunnel, Tennis
Elbow, pain in your thighs, or knees? Let us introduce TheraKnit to help
alleviate your pain:
TheraKnit Brace Electrodes are
constructed of conductive fabric and 3mm neoprene, plus a hook and loop
closure system. The design of each brace allows for easy adjustment of
tension by the user so that an optimal level of comfort and compression
can be achieved. A lead wire adapter fastens to the external snap that
penetrates the neoprene and conductive material to deliver the output
from the ULTIMA 20 TENS unit. The conductive fabric provides stimulation
across its entire surface making placement easy and accurate - there is
no need for conductive sprays or gels. The neoprene traps heat emitted
from the body keeping the treatment area warm while worn by the patient.

TheraKnit Knee Brace |
The wrap around design of our TheraKnit Knee Brace anchors at the
patella (knee cap), and fully encircles the knee joint. The
easily adjusted conductive garment assures proper compression
and ongoing therapeutic heat. |
|
TheraKnit Electrode Garments
Designed to be used in conjunction with the ULTIMA 20 TENS unit for
pulsed galvanic electrostimulation. The muscle stimulation from the
ULTIMA 20 causes a noticeable reduction of the pain and any swelling.
Muscle stimulation is commonly used to fatigue a muscle in spasm to
relax it. The stimulation works on the same principle while normalizing
the blood flow through the contracted muscle for a more comfortable and
longer residual reduction of spasms.
Our TheraKnit garments eliminate any guesswork in the
size and placement of the electrodes--They stimulate the entire involved
area for maximum therapeutic effect. |

TheraKnit Wrist Brace |

wrap around design gives you the ability to balance compression and
comfort via hook and loop closure. Our Wrist Brace delivers electro-stimulation
where it is needed. |

TheraKnit Thigh Brace |
The TheraKnit Thigh Brace's wrap around design ensures an easy
application. The hook and loop fasteners enable you to adjust
the compression level for comfort while the neoprene provides
ongoing therapeutic heat retention and increased circulation. |

TheraKnit Ankle Brace |
Compression &
stimulation to the ankle is easily accomplished with this wrap
around design. The TheraKnit Ankle Brace is available in Regular

TheraKnit Elbow Brace |
The TheraKnit Elbow Brace also offers an adjustable compression,
therapeutic heat retention, as well as electrostimulation to the
upper forearm, elbow joint, and lower bicep and tricep. |

Electrotherapy works by stimulating your
body's own natural defenses against pain. Electrotherapy is used for
relaxation of muscle spasms, prevention and retardation of disuse
atrophy, increase of local blood circulation, muscle rehabilitation and
re-education electrical muscle stimulation, maintaining and increasing
range of motion, management of chronic and intractable pain,
post-traumatic acute pain, post surgical acute pain, immediate
post-surgical stimulation of muscles to prevent venous thrombosis, wound
healing and drug delivery.
The Ultima 20 TENS unit produces a gentle
stimulation through pads, gloves, socks, and sleeves normally
placed over the area of pain. This stimulus helps the body to
produce natural pain relievers called endorphins.
