How does RPT work?
The enPuls device delivers mechanical energy into the target tissue. The energy will treat muscle pain and help increase circulation in the areas being treated. It also affects the tissue tone in a positive way, making your clinicians” other therapies more effective.
Your chronic pain may be related to scar tissue and adhesions formed either in soft tissue or tendon / ligament post injury. A treatment with the enuls effectively presses the reset button on chronic scarred and hard-to-treat soft tissue. Scar tissue and adhesions in many cases adhere to and put pressure on nerves, which can result in pain. By breaking up the scarring and adhesions this helps take the pressure off the nerve and increases circulation to the area which helps the body heal itself more efficiently. Plus, this will help with the range of motion.

Radial Pulse Therapy (RPT) creates a mechanical stress that may cause mild discomfort during treatment.
Depending on the desired depth of penetration, varying amounts of energy may be utilized to create the desired effect and some soreness may be experienced post-treatment.
What is the duration of pain relief after Treatment?
Most patients report some pain relief after the first treatment. However, the effects are most prominent after the second or third treatment. Your clinician will be able to help you through this process as every patient based on their condition may respond differently.
How many treatments are required on average?
The normal number of treatments for most conditions is 3 to 4, but certain conditions may require up to a maximum of 9 treatments. The body naturally recovers best with treatments spaced four to 10 days apart. If you need a maximum of 9 treatments, wait 4 to 6 weeks before the next treatment in the same body area.
Can I continue playing sports or normal physical exercise after RPT?
Physical exercise promotes metabolism and the restructuring processes in the tissue. It is normal to continue your physical activities within guidelines set by your health care provider.
