Circulation
Bodyflow® Blood flow is essential for the provision of oxygen and nutrients to all the cells of the body - for both living and healing. The main force of this flow of blood is provided by the heart whilst smooth muscle (tunica media) also plays an important role in the contraction and relaxation of arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels to maintain the continual flow of blood. Bodyflow’s frequency is set to specifically stimulate smooth muscle and has been demonstrated to increase blood and lymphatic flow. It is common for people with vascular disease to suffer the symptoms related to poor blood flow (especially to the lower legs and feet). Conditions such as Peripheral Vascular Disease associated with Diabetes, Aged care and associated conditions with symptoms such as cold feet, aching legs, restless legs, leg and foot ulcers, peripheral neuropathy (damage to the nerves of the extremities) and pain associated with poor circulation can greatly benefit from Bodyflow® treatment.
Diabetes
Diabetes Mellitus is diagnosed when there is an abnormally high level of blood sugar. There are Approx 1 million people in Australia that suffer from Diabetes Mellitus. An added consequence of Diabetes Mellitus is the damage caused to peripheral vessels (extremities) resulting in poor circulation (blood flow). This in tern can lead to Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), which can manifest itself in sores wounds or ulcers that heal slowly or not at all. Blood flow is essential for the provision of oxygen and nutrients to all the cells of the body - for both living and healing. The main force of this flow of blood is provided by the heart whilst smooth muscle (tunica media) also plays an important role in that contraction and relaxation of smooth muscle assists in the regulation of blood pressure. Bodyflow® technology has been clinically proven to increase circulation and lymphatic uptake through specific stimulation of smooth muscle, thereby improving patient recovery and rehabilitation to minimise discomfort and potentially, time in hospital.
The use of Bodyflow® as part of the rehabilitation process from, wounds, acute injuries and post surgery increases the flow of blood and lymph within the patient’s body. This allows affected areas to be supplied with the essential nutrients required for healing and regeneration of damaged tissue.
Wound Healing Testimonials
‘I have been using the Bodyflow® treatment twice a day on different parts of my legs/feet in order to encourage blood flow for the purposes of wound healing. I am very delighted about the treatment as it has greatly accelerated the healing of various wounds caused by pressure sores and vasculitis. I intend to continue to use Bodyflow® even after all my wounds have completely healed in order to maintain healthy blood flow.’ Georgina - 28, Victoria
Clinical Trial - Dr Kurosh Parsi
Blood flow, Fibrinolysis and Anti-Procoagulant Activity After Treatment of Bodyflow® in Healthy Subjects. Dr Kurosh Parsi of Sydney Skin and Vein, Sydney, Australia is one of Australia’s leading Phlebologists. He is an active researcher and the current president of the Australian College of Phlebology. Parsi has been conducting trials on the Bloodflow, Fibrinolysis and Anti-Procoagulant Activity After Treatment of Bodyflow® in Healthy Subjects. Abstract Summary “Bodyflow has a tendency to increase venous velocity and blood flow in deep veins of some normal individuals tested. The treatment appeared to enhance fibrinolysis, but the difference could be due to circadian variation. A significant decrease in soluble P-Selectin in conjunction with a decrease in phosopholipid activity may indicate reduced platelet activation and procoagulant microparticle activity”
