Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 I found this device online and wondered if anyone has experience using it, and if so what the results were. thanks, here's the web link: http://www.rebuildermedical.com/index.php How does the ReBuilder Work? The ReBuilder® uses a tiny electrical signal to wake up nerves that are temporarily dormant or asleep due to past oxygen deprivation. The ReBuilder's patent pending signal is a precise copy of a healthy nerve signals, but stronger. This healing signal travels from one foot, up that leg, across the synaptic junctions and nerve roots in your lower back and then down to your other foot. Then it reverses the polarity and this nerve impulse then travels back to your original foot. This back and forth action effectively stimulates all the nerves of both legs and feet. At the same time, the ReBuilder® stimulates your calf muscles to contract and relax, as they would naturally during exercise, such as walking, to increase local blood flow and strengthen your calf muscles for better mobility. Once your nerves are working again, they will require additional blood flow. the ReBuilder signals also cause the brain to release endorphins, strong pain relievers that travel via the bloodstream to all parts of the body, not just the hands and feet. These natural pain relievers can reduce depression and physical pain without any negative side effects. Because the path of these healing signals is from foot to foot, the ReBuilder® re-educates the nerve paths. This re-education makes sure the normal signals that follow travel the correct paths. Neuropathy can short circuit the paths so that a signal from the big toe, for example may go to the little toe instead of up the foot and leg to the spinal column. this confuses the brain and the brain either over- reacts and you feel a shooting pain or it learns to ignore big toe signals and you feel numbness or tingling. The FDA groups the ReBuilder with EMS (electronic muscle stimulator) and TENS (transcutaneous Electrical Nerve stimulator) devices, but unlike common TENS devices that merely block pain signals, the ReBuilder does the opposite: the ReBuilder® opens up the nerve paths, re-educating them to transmit normal nerve signals to the brain. This, coupled with the increased blood flow from the muscle contractions, results in a true therapeutic healing, not just a temporary masking of the pain. The ReBuilder rebuilds nerves and muscles. Beware of imitations. The ReBuilder is the original since 1988 and has a patent pending on its unique electrical signal. Other devices that use infrared LED's such as Anodyne, and Healthlight simply heat the skin that is directly under the lights. Neuropathy is not caused by cold and cannot be cured by heat or else a normal bath would be a cure. Remember, the ReBuilder stimulates all the nerves electrically from you waist on down and increased permanent blood flow by increasing the strength and size of your calf muscles. A recent study in Diabetes Today, the journal for the American diabetes Association, found that these infrared devices like the Anodyne and the Healthlight " are not an effective modality for improving sensory impairments in patients with diabetic neuropathy. " This same journal describes the ReBuilder as " real medical treatment with lasting results. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
