Description: Sustained Acoustic Medicine
Sustained Acoustic Medicine (sam ® ) is a low intensity, long duration, daily ultrasound treatment that can reduce the need for pain medication and surgery.
Using mechanobiological technology, sam ® increases blood vessel diameters to improve blood flow. This increases oxygenated hemoglobin at the site and removes cytokine enzymes and cellular waste. The result is more rapid healing and reduced pain.
The sam ® device was developed out of research funded by the National Institute of Health and US Department of Defense to accelerate soft tissue healing and reduce the use of pharmaceuticals.
