Your body can heal itself! In fact, your body started healing itself the moment you injured your knee and it's the blood in your body that makes it all happen.

Your blood is the transport mechanism for everything that's good inside of you. It carries oxygen, nutrients and water.

Substantial blood flow to injured soft tissue (cartilage, muscles, tendons, etc) is essential as this is the primary means for you body to repair soft tissue. Unfortunately, when you injure your achilles, you stop moving and the swelling sets in. That means your vital blood flow can be reduced to a trickle.

Swelling, inflammation and lack of joint movement reduce the flow of blood to your injury. When you are talking about trying to increase the flow of blood to the meniscus, you are at a huge disadvantage since there is very little blood flow in the meniscus to begin with. This is one of the main reasons why meniscus tears persist over long periods of time and in many cases never improve without surgical intervention.

Swelling and inflammation is your body responding to an injury. If you are experiencing pain and swelling in the very early stages of the injury (first 48 to 72 hours), the first step in a conservative treatment protocol would be to focus on reducing the discomfort by applying a Cold Compress or Ice Pack to the knee.

After a couple days of cold treatment, the swelling should come down - but know that this is a critical time! After the inflammation is gone it may feel like you can return to your regular sports, hobbies, exercise or other activities - but your knee (and surrounding tissue) is in a weakened state, unstable, and still injured. Even the slightest movement in the wrong direction can worsen the injury and increase the swelling yet again. Most "weekend warriors" and amateur athletes will start going back to what they were doing before they suffered from their meniscus injury, and that's where they get it wrong. Medical professionals know that the injury is still there even if the pain is gone.

Blood Flow - the natural healing process in your body - needs assistance for such injuries because blood flow is greatly restricted when you are immobile. When treating a meniscus injury or really any type of soft tissue injury (ie. tendinitis, muscle spasm, etc), an effective treatment will increase blood flow to the injury while the joint is immobile. This increase in blood flow will help maximize the body's own capability to heal itself. This is certainly true with a meniscus tear, as mobility is often very restricted (too painful) and the meniscus receives very little blood flow to start with.

Building strong healthy tissue is part of the healing process and needs to be dealt with asap to minimize your chance or re-injury or overcompensation injuries. You can help your meniscii during your recovery process by increasing blood flow in and around this area of the knee.

Physical Activity

Health is general term, but most of you would say that athletes are more healthy than the average person. Why is this? Probably because an athlete undergoes much more physical activity and because of this, they have more healthy soft tissue. As you exercise muscles in your body, they increase in size and strength; they also require more bloodflow. The circulatory system is also "exercised" during physical activity, and it benefits from this as well by becoming stronger and delivering more bloodflow throughout the body. The more physical activity you undergo, the stronger your circulatory system becomes, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to your body in a more efficient manner.

You might also notice that athletes usually heal more quickly from soft tissue injuries than non-athletes. This is a prime example of how better blood flow circulation will have an impact on healing time. The circulation system of athletes bring a healing advantage that can be quite considerable. The TShellz Wrap is how you can literally gain that bloodflow advantage that only athletes usually have - just around the treatment area rather than through the whole body.

When you are physically active you probably notice that your blood is pumping harder. Your heart is increasing blood flow to deliver more oxygen to starved muscles, as well as take away waste materials (metabolic byproducts such as lactic acid) so they don't start collecting in your soft tissue. If your blood flow cannot keep up with your activity, your muscles tire and waste materials will build up, causing temporary weakness and soreness in the overused muscle groups. It is a very practical example of why blood flow is important; the best athletes generally have the best and most efficient circulatory system. They can keep going (ie. riding a bicycle up a mountain in the Tour De France) when others simply cannot.

The increased flow of blood from a TShellz Wrap treatment is much the same as would be gained from physical activity, only it occurs in the localized treatment area rather than the whole body. Energy from the TShellz Wrap is applied at the injury area, inducing blood flow exactly where you need it most.

TShellz Wrap^® = Accelerated Blood Flow To The Knee

Tto catalyze your body's ability to repair soft tissue, you need to keep your blood moving and that's where Circulatory Boost comes in. What is Circulatory Boost? It's a substantial increase in the flow of blood to soft tissue without the need to exercise your weakened joint. This is what the TShellz Wrap^® does... you can really feel it work!

Have you seen what happens when you add water to a flower wilted from drought? An injured meniscus is much like a "wilted" flower; your body wants to heal the injury, but needs lots of nutrients to do it. Blood supports and facilitates new life by delivering healing nutrients and oxygen that are vital to your tissue. In addition, the blood carries away toxins and waste - cleaning the area and healing it faster. Without a good supply of blood, your cartilage and surrounding tissue simply won't heal properly.

Both during and for a while after the treatment, your soft tissue will experience increased blood flow even though your body is at rest.

In order to get maximum blood flow to your knee, you need to help your body stimulate blood flow - for this we recommend the Knee TShellz Wrap^®. This device is a fast, easy and pain-free way to increase blood flow. It is a key part of a home conservative treatment plan.

During a treatment, and for quite some time after you finish, the treated area will experience increased blood flow even though your body is at rest. It's a soothing sensation and extremely effective. With a TShellz Wrap^® application, injured soft tissue is constantly being fed with healing, nutritious, oxygen and energy filled blood. This is exactly the fuel that soft tissue needs to heal.

Since the TShellz Wrap^® devices are circulatory system enhancers, TShellz Wrap^® treatments should not be applied until most of the inflammation from the injury has reduced. This is because you want to restrict blood vessels when you have pain and swelling and which is why we recommend usage of a Cold Compress or Ice Pack to get the pain and swelling down first (within the first 24 to 48 hours). Only then should the TShellz Wrap^® be applied.

How a TShellz Wrap^® Works

A TShellz Wrap^® is purely a Circulatory Boost workhorse! It is why we made them. They have been specifically designed for boosting blood flow, reducing inflammation and relieving pain from strained, spasming or damaged soft tissue (muscles, bursae, tendons, etc). Based on results from past clients, we are confident that they will be very beneficial for most of our future customers.

TShellz Wraps^® contain an Energy Pad which is very pliable and will conform pretty much anywhere on the body. The Energy Pad emits a uniform wave of energy over the entire treatment area. This energy travels into soft tissue, stimulating blood flow that your body requires to help heal your injury. Blood flow is crucial to the healing process.

The unit plugs into a wall outlet to get its power. It has a special signal controller which can be set for 3 different power levels of application (3=High, 2=Medium, 1=Low). The cord is long enough that you can sit or lie comfortably and watch TV, read or surf the net while you're using it.

TShellz Wraps^® - The Secret to Accelerated Blood Flow

The TShellz Wraps significantly increase bloodflow in soft tissue - period.

With regular use of the TShellz Wrap:

• Your pain will be reduced.
• Due to a substantial increase in blood flow, soft tissue in the area should recover at an accelerated rate.
• Due to increased warmth in soft tissue, the corresponding joint will have a larger range of motion and increased extensibility of collagen tissue. This should translate into a reduced rate of re-injury occurrance as soft tissue becomes more flexible.

Wrap the TShellz Wrap^® around your knee, plug it in and let the Energy Pad do the work!

So, if you're really looking for an effective home therapy to treat soft tissue knee pain; if you're looking to reduce inflammation, treat scar tissue, boost blood circulation and strengthen soft tissue, the TShellz Wrap^® is what we recommend. We feel it is an exceptional home based approach to maximizing your soft tissue injury recovery process.

For meniscus and/or knee joint related post-surgery recovery, cold is recommended by doctors to treat your pain in a natural, non-addictive way and to reduce swelling.

p>After the incision site has healed and initial inflammation has reduced, use our TShellz Wraps to stimulate blood flow in the area. Using the TShellz Wrap as soon as pain & swelling has reduced following your surgery will help minimize scar tissue growth that forms as you heal. Treating scar tissue is arguably the most important step following surgery, especially in a joint as scar tissue growth will impact range of motion in the joint.

Leaving post-surgery scar tissue untreated can lead to stiffness, chronic pain, osteoarthritis or other chronic conditions. You're more likely to end up with another injury if you choose not to actively treat the scar tissue that develops in the area - this is why pretty much all post surgery recoveries involve physical therapy. Circulatory Boost encourages more oxygen and nutrients to flow to the area to help your body in its recovery process. An increase in blood flow should also help improve the strength of soft tissue in the area.
