Clinically proven to speed up recovery, reduce pain & inflammation of soft tissue injuries. NEW from HoMedics
If you’ve ever pulled a muscle, strained a tendon or suffered from tennis elbow, you’ll know just how frustrating it is to wait for soft tissue injuries to heal. Of course, popping painkillers or using a TENS machine can help you feel more comfortable but most treatments simply block the pain.
Now a new device promises to prompt the body to heal itself, speeding recovery time by an impressive 30 per cent – and it’s totally drug-free too!
The iHeal

This tiny, clever device uses pulse electro-magnetic field (PEMF) waves to boost blood flow to the relevant area, stimulating the body’s natural healing process. It’s been clinically proven to speed healing time by 30 per cent, reducing pain and inflammation in soft tissue.
There are no messy creams or gels, no wires and, best of all, little or no sensation from using. In fact you can’t feel it at all so you can even use it while you’re asleep. Better still, it’s pocket-sized so you can use it on the go – even when driving.
You simply attach it to the relevant part of your body (there’s a strap provided and self-adhesive patches), switch it on and leave it to do its work for up to 10 hours at a time.
The iHeal costs £49.99 and will be available from Boots from end August 2011
