Irene F.
Grandmother
“Thank you for offering me this treatment. I had such a bad experience with my left knee replacement I just could not bear going through that again and continuing to have pain like I did. This stimulator improved my right knee pain so much that I wish you would put one in for my continued left knee pain after the replacement. Thank you again."
Ian J.
Retired Police Officer
“I had multiple knee surgeries and had the worst pain. It effected every aspect of my life. I became reclusive and withdrawn.
After my stimulator, I don't even think about my knee anymore.”
Robert T.
Injured Iron worker
“I had chronic pain for years. Every step I took, and every time I even moved my leg I had sharp, shooting pain. Now, I can walk my dog and take my wife shopping again. This stimulator has changed my life.”
