Therapeutic heating is effective at treating conditions such as arthritis, back pain, chronic pain, joint contractures, soft tissue and repetitive stress injuries.
Why do you need to tune the therapy garments for each person receiving therapy?
You need to tune the therapy garment because each person’s physical attributes are different and tuning customizes the therapy garment to each individual to provide the most effective therapy. The therapy garment may go out of tune during the therapy as the recipient may have moved or because as the tissue is being warmed, the blood flow is also increasing, changing the capacitance in that area of the body, therefore, causing the therapy garment to need re-tuned.
Its similar to tuning your radio, once you have it to the correct setting you are able to hear the sound. Once you have the ReBoundTM to the correct setting for the recipient they can receive the treatment.

Physiological Benefits of Diathermy
Not only do the oscillating ions generate therapeutic heat up to 4 cm below the skins surface the following physiological effects are also the result of a ReBound™ diathermy treatment.
- reduction of intracellular edema
- triggering of collagen synthesis
- increased microvascular perfusion
- activation of fibroblast growth factors
- increased macrophage activity
- increased extensibility of collagen fibers in tendons and joint capsules
- reduced viscosity of fluid element within the tissues
- decreased joint stiffness
- reduced muscle spasm
- diminished pain perception
- increased metabolism
- increased blood flow
- vasodilation
- relaxation
- increased membrane filtration and diffusion
- changes in some enzyme reactions
