Sciatica - Prevention
 Treating You Sciatica PainCompression of the sciatic nerve can occur in various locations and the exact cause and location is not always known. Treating the symptoms can be helpful to manage the pain but treating the source of the compression will result in faster sciatica relief. We recommend that you see your doctor for a proper diagnosis and to determine the cause of the compression on the sciatic nerve. Ultrasound Therapy Compression on the sciatic nerve caused by a tight or swollen lower back muscle (usually the piriformis muscle) should be treated with ultrasound therapy. Using therapeutic ultrasound in the lower back and hip area will loosen tight muscles and reduce swelling and inflammation. It will also clear the area of damaged tissue that can cause a build up of toxins and continued irritation. Ultrasound has been used by physical therapists and doctors for years to treat muscle strains, tears, spasm and more. By applying ultrasound therapy to your piriformis muscle you can reduce the swelling and irritation to alleviate the compression on your sciatic nerve. By treating the cause of your sciatica pain, you can alleviate the symptoms faster.
Ultrasound is a great therapeutic option to decrease inflammation, pain and scar tissue build up experienced with sciatica and other soft tissue injuries. The treatment is easy, painless, and requires 10 minutes of your time. It is based on a form of deep thermal therapy which is generated through high frequency sound waves that reach into the cells of the tissue. These sound waves reach into your piriformis muscle and hip to reduce swelling, inflammation and scar tissue.  Using the MendMeShop® Lavender Infusion Gel during your ultrasound therapy gives you 2 therapies in 1. You get the benefit of the regenerating sound waves from the ultrasound device itself AND the added bonus of the therapeutic ingredients inside the gel being delivered into the tissue where it is most effective. Lavender Infusion Ultrasound Gel contains the natural essential oils of Bulgarian lavender, peppermint, eucalyptus, and menthol and is exclusively available from MendMeShop®. These ingredients reduce inflammation, relieve pain and improve blood circulation to your lower back and hip. 1 bottle of MendMeShop® Lavender Infusion Ultrasound Gel comes FREE with every MendMeShop® Ultrasound System so you get unbeatable ultrasound therapy for your sciatica pain.

Your body needs a fresh supply of blood to improve the health of your tissue and treat the muscle strain or irritation to relieve the compression of your sciatic nerve.  Unfortunately, when you are suffering from sciatica it can be painful to even walk or lift your leg. When you limit movement in your hip the blood flow is reduced, starving your tissue of the necessary oxygen and nutrients. The trick is to find a way to increase blood flow without causing pain and/or further inflaming the muscle or discs. This is where blood flow stimulation therapy, or BFST®, becomes a powerful tool. BFST® compliments your body's natural healing process By promoting blood flow while you give your sciatic nerve the rest it needs. The Back/Hip Inferno Wrap® uses a patented process to generate the same energy that is part of the sun's spectrum of light, the same energy that is necessary to all living things for optimum health. The energy emitted from the Energy Web® stimulates blood flow to your lower back and hip, more than your body would ever be able to generate on it's own, giving your body the boost it needs to keep your spine and lower back muscles as healthy as possible and reduce the risk of irritation, inflammation and herniation. The soothing energy reaches deep into your body to whisk away the toxins and dead cells, and rejuvenate your muscle tissues for improved elasticity.

| Dear MendMeShop, I am currently using ultrasound on a heel spur that was so painful I could barely walk especially in the morning it's been about 9 days of treatments and I barely feel it now. I went to the doctor, got x-rays, they determined it was heel spurs and arthritis. Best senario from them was cortizone shots or surgery I was determined to find something else, went on the net and found all kinds of wonder drugs and natural supplements to cure heel spurs I really was wary about those and then I found your website. Yay!!! Here was something non intrusive and not painful to use plus with your money back guarantee what did I have to lose, also I have started to use it on my wifes back that has bothered her for her whole life she noticed improvement after the first treatment. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYONE WITH BONE OR MUSCLE PAIN. I can't wait to try it on my hand which has arthritis.Thanx so much for a great product. Rating: Charles Shenk         |
