Anodyne ® Therapy is a revolutionary and technologically superior form of monochromatic infrared energy therapy.  It has been used by therapists to reduce pain and speed the healing of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular injuries as well as chronic conditions, such as bursitis, arthritis, tendinitis, fractures, and neuropathic pain. 

The Anodyne ® Therapy System is used externally and is non-invasive.  It consists of a base power unit with flexible therapy pads that have 60 light emitting diodes (LEDs).  Each of the diodes produce infrared light at a wavelength of 890 nanometers. 

The Anodyne ® Therapy System increases localized circulation and temporarily reduces pain.  A 20 minutes treatment can increase circulation as much as 3200% according to research results.  The use of infrared photo-energy can address edema, pain, and the wound healing process.  It is different from conventional modalities. 

Contraindications   Anodyne ® Therapy should not be used on those folks who are pregnant, or have an active malignancy.  It should not be used over an analgesic cream due to the possibility of burns.

This therapy may be used over pacemakers, implanted defibulators, and implants (pins, screws, prosthesis, etc.) of all ages.

Adverse Effects   None have been reported.

Treatment Times   Depending on the type of injury, Anodyne ® Therapy may be used between 20 and 45 minutes per treatment.  The frequency of treatments ranges between 3 times per week to daily until the maximum return to function is achieved.

How Does It Work?   Tests have shown that it is the nitric oxide that is released directly under the Anodyne ® therapy pads that promotes the increase in circulation and reduction in pain.  When used properly, the Anodyne ® Therapy System is a safe, effective, natural therapy for  many conditions.

Conditions Indicated   Anodyne ® Therapy is easy to use.  The diode pads are placed directly over the painful area.  Some of the conditions which have had positive results from Anodyne ® Therapy include pain relief, wound healing, Diabetic neuropathy, TMJ, shingles, Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Neuromuscular injuries, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Scar tissue & Keloid Scar formations, Nerve Damage, and headaches.  It is painless, and is covered by most insurance companies.  For more information Anodyne ® Therapy, LLC can be located online at www.anodynetherapy.com .  The company's mailing address is 13570 Wright Circle, Tampa, FL 33626.
