ST. PAUL, Minn. - March 29, 2020 - Last Friday, over 2 Million American adults were told to stay home for an initial 15-day period by Pres. Trump and the coronavirus task force. Consequently, those with pre-existing health & wellness needs have been sidelined by the high risk of contracting the COVID-19 as many States mandate all non-essential adult elective surgery and medical procedures be delayed until containment efforts have been achieved.
The newest home-health innovation hitting US markets this week is the Oceanus PhysioLite II- a Pulsed Acoustic UltraSound device. The pulse waves travel deep into the targeted tissue and induce vasodilation, which helps increase blood flow to promote and potentiate accelerated healing. "We weren't planning to launch this service line so early," explains Ryan Hansmeyer, President of the Shock Wave Society of North America, "This National epidemic not only left Americans colder able to the virus, but also to misinformation about other devices whose claims consistently over promos and under deliver." The pulsed waveform differentiates the PhysioLite II from all other ultrasound therapy devices on the market today: Not completely dissimilar to the higher energy flux densities achieved by extracorporeal shockwave therapy devices such as the Oceanus Connect used at GAINSWave clinics, MedSpas, and Regenerative Medicine practices today.
"This is not intended to completely replace prior existing shockwave therapies," Mr. Hansmeyer explains, "...rather, during our national crisis we have a moral obligation to safely establish continuity of care for our existing patients through providing them with the tools and resources that will best service them." The PhysioLITE II is equipped with a bright LED screen, head-warming feature on an ergonomically designed sound head for increased patient satisfaction. The projected market retail value of a PhysioLite II is US$699, and each patient will be provided with a travel case, ultrasound gel, instruction manual, and a quick start telehealth appointment for optimal pre-service education. "We believe this will compliment doctors by providing an immediate distance in- home solution. Primarily, SWSNA will be offering our therapy technologies to doctors office to sell or lease to their patients for whome it is most beneficial. SWSNA will also assist those doctors with providing Telehealth services during widespread State shutdowns, should they elect."
