At Optimum Alberta Back and Neck Rehab, we use the BTE PrimusRS machine to treat a variety of common injuries. We have found the PrimusRS to be particularly helpful in treating rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, ankle sprain/strain injuries, repetitive wrist injuries and ACL post-surgery rehab. Our staff of experts understands the mechanics behind each of these conditions and has developed protocols to help promote faster healing. We will explore these conditions in depth and explain how the PrimusRS can help.
Overview of the BTE PrimusRS
The BTE PrimusRS is a specialized rehabilitation machine with several advantages over traditional treatments for injuries to your upper and lower limbs. It is non-invasive, meaning there is no need for surgery or injections. It is also non-surgical, meaning there is no risk of infection or scarring.
Injuries We Can Treat With The PrimusRS
The Primus can treat a wide variety of injuries to your arms and legs, but where it truly shines is in treating injuries related to the rotator cuff, knee, ankle, wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
Rotator Cuff Pain
At Optimum Alberta Back and Neck Rehab, we understand that rotator cuff injuries are particularly painful and difficult to heal. The BTE PrimusRS machine helps reduce pain and inflammation in the shoulder joint, allowing for improved mobility and flexibility. Additionally, its non-invasive nature can help reduce the risk of further damage to the joint while aiding in the healing process. By targeting the underlying cause of the injury, the PrimusRS can provide lasting relief and improved quality of life for those suffering from rotator cuff injuries.
Frozen shoulder
Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is a condition in which the shoulder joint becomes stiff and painful due to inflammation and scarring of the shoulder joint capsule. The BTE PrimusRS machine can help reduce the inflammation and scarring of a frozen shoulder, allowing for improved mobility and flexibility. Its non-invasive nature also helps reduce the risk of further damage to the joint while aiding in the healing process. As with all injuries, it is important to follow a rehabilitation plan tailored to your body and injury.
Ankle Sprain/Strain Injuries
Ankle sprain/strain injuries are common and can be particularly disabling if not treated properly. With the BTE PrimusRS machine, we can help improve the flexibility and mobility of the ankle joint while reducing inflammation and pain. In addition, the pulsing action of the PrimusRS can help break down scar tissue and speed up the healing process. Our treatment protocols help you return to pre-injury activity levels as quickly as possible while reducing the risk of additional injuries.
Repetitive Wrist Injuries
Repetitive wrist injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, are often caused by overuse of the wrist muscles and tendons. Repetitive wrist injuries can be particularly painful and limit your ability to do everyday activities. With the BTE PrimusRS, our team can help reduce your pain and stiffness in the wrist. This treatment can also help repair damaged tissue and promote faster healing.
ACL Post-Surgery Rehab
ACL post-surgery rehab is another area in which the BTE PrimusRS is extremely effective. By targeting the underlying cause of the injury, the PrimusRS can help restore strength and mobility in the knee joint. The pulsing action of the machine can help break down scar tissue and accelerate healing, while its non-invasive nature can reduce the risk of further injury. Working with our doctors, PrimusRS provides you with a safe and effective treatment for ACL post-surgery rehab.
