Blood circulation is the human body's supply system. It supplies the tissues and organs with nutrients and oxygen while removing and disposing of resulting waste products. 75% of this process takes place in the smallest blood vessels - the so-called microcirculation. Total Podiatry now offers Vascular Mat Therapy to its patients. The Vascular Mat Therapy devices improve the impaired pumping movements of small and very small vessels. This results in a needs-based distribution of blood in the network of small blood vessels, making Vascular Mat Therapy an effective treatment option for many conditions such as:
Arthritis
At Total Podiatry we use Vascular Mat Therapy as a treatment for Arthritis that provides critical underlying support for the healing processes in the treatment of degenerative disorders of the musculoskeletal system. It assists in restoring an adequate blood supply to the relevant tissue cells, thereby helping to relieve pain caused by arthritis. Vascular Mat Therapy is a scientifically proven procedure that uses stimulation signals to speed up the inadequate movement of the smallest vessels, the capillaries, which in turn improves the supply and disposal of tissue and organ cells. The use of Vascular Mat Therapy has achieved documented successes in both the prevention of peripheral arterial disease and the treatment of the disease in its early stages by improving microcirculation.
Diabetes
At Total Podiatry we feel that Vascular Mat Therapy is an absolutely essential complementary treatment in the therapy of metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus and the prevention of metabolic syndrome, especially in these modern times dominated by stress and lack of exercise. Among patients with diabetic polyneuropathy (a disorder of the peripheral nerves that can give rise to pain, pins-and-needles sensations, burning or numbness in the arms and legs), a course of Vascular Mat Therapy is successful in significantly improving the function of the microcirculation and the immune system. Many medical studies have demonstrated that when diabetes patients with sores received conservative Vascular Mat Therapy treatment, these became significantly smaller.
Sprains
The use of Vascular Mat Therapy can also reduce the amount of time that the patient has to “suffer” with a sprain. With sports-related injuries like sprains, torn muscles, and ligaments, Vascular Mat Therapy achieves a faster healing time and gets you back up and enjoying your daily activities. This allows for a shorter regimen to achieve faster healing.
Fatigue
Vascular Mat Therapy supports the natural reaction capability of the immune system and activates the body's self-healing powers by strengthening its regulation mechanisms. With patients experiencing fatigue at Total Podiatry, we have found that it is particularly important in many cases that Vascular Mat Therapy is able to improve the ability to fall asleep and stay asleep, while it supports the body with key regenerative processes during this rest phase.
Back Pain
Vascular Mat Therapy uses a scientifically proven method to transmit stimulation signals to the precapillary arterioles and post-capillary venules. The purpose of these signals is to ensure that the arteriole and venules move better and faster again, driving vasomotion. This enables medicines administered against back pain to reach their destination by ensuring that the blood flow in the capillaries is more effective.
