The Graham Johnson Cultural Arts Endowment is happy to announce a new partnership program with MedFaxx, Inc. MedFaxx is one of the oldest electrotherapy companies in the U.S. Specializing in pain management using electrotherapy devices such as tens units, and the new combination tens and interferential therapy unit, - video on Infrex Plus. MedFaxx has specialized in helping patients in chronic pain since 1977 and continues to do so.
For every tens unit, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator, sold MedFaxx will contribute $50 to the GJCAE. For every Infrex Plus combination tens and interferential unit sold MedFaxx will donate $100 the the GJCAE. The donation does not apply to Medicare/Medicaid patients.
The Board of MedFaxx is happy to be part of the GJCAE efforts to raise levels of self confidence and self esteem in youth with arts programming.
This video explains how MedFaxx can assist patients in obtaining insurance coverage for a tens unit and then trade in the tens unit for an Infrex Plus, after receiving the Infrex Plus free trial.
The patient makes the determination if interferential therapy is more effective than tens therapy by using the Infrex Plus on a free trial. Interferential does not require wearing 24/7 as a tens unit may. 30 minutes treatments may stop the pain all day. Video explains.
Video on how electricity, electrical charges, positive and negative charges, are being used to heal bones, non union fractures, and bed sores, decubitus ulcers electrically. Video explains the natural regeneration process the body goes through to heal itself naturally.
For some pain patients an analog tens unit is preferred over a digital tens unit. This video shows the difference between the two types of tens units and also how to use an analog tens unit. Bob discusses the reasons patients have a preference for the analog type tens unit and how to use analog tens units of different manufacturers. The basics of a tens unit are generally the same as this tens video points out.
For many patients with impaired, or poor vision, a digital tens unit is not functional since the patient can not see the small screen so the analog tens unit is preferred. The analog tens unit involves only touching and turning the buttons versus pushing buttons and watching a screen to see how to change the different functions such as rate, width, power, modulation, burst modes etc. The small tens unit screen is not easy to see, nor for many, easy to understand the many symbols showing how to work the tens unit. The analog tens unit has at most 5 buttons and one lever switch which once set may be never used again or, if used, very infrequently.
Pain machine, tens unit, tns machine, interferential therapy, whatever, how does a tens unit work? This short tens video details the way a tens unit reduces or eliminates pain. Pain is an impulse and whatever the mechanism is for moving the impulse from the area to the brain for perception is basically the same, no matter what the diagnosis is.
