With 5 simultaneous therapies MTS-7.1 promotes healing & decreases downtime.
Use as a daily treatment to prevent injuries and enhance performance.
TENS: E-Stim/Microcurrent
Transcutaneous nerve stimulators (TENS) are a non-invasive modality applied to the surface of the skin that use electrical stimulation (E-stim) to activate underlying nerves. They provide symptomatic relief of acute pain.
LED Red Light
LED red light increases the energy inside cells that speeds up healing in both soft and deep tissue, and creates a soothing, pain-relieving effect.
LED Infrared Light
LED infrared light therapy uses a low-level laser light from below the red spectrum. It couples the positive effects of red light with the added benefits of heat to help heal deep tissue and speed recovery.
Vibratory Massage
Five levels of vibratory massage therapy increase blood flow and oxygen to the area which helps reduce muscle soreness and encourages the removal of cellular waste.
How it Works
With 5 simultaneous therapies, MTS-7.1 promotes healing & decreases downtime.
Use as a daily treatment to enhance performance and prevent injuries, or use after an injury to help promote healing.

TENS: E-Stim
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive modality applied to the surface of the skin that uses electrical stimulation (E-stim) to activate underlying nerves. This action inhibits sensitivity from cells that detect pain.
Researchers since the late 1960's have recorded the positive effects of TENS in wound healing, pain management, and accelerated rehabilitation, sometimes at twice the rate of control groups. Studies show that TENS is an effective treatment for relieving chronic musculoskeletal pain as well as pain from acute injury or postoperative pain.
E-stim has also been shown to preserve and build muscle strength by inducing repeated muscle contractions. Researchers note E-stim's effectiveness in reducing muscle weakness, building muscle mass, and avoiding muscular atrophy especially after sports injury.
TENS: Microcurrent
Similarly to E-stim, microcurrent therapy is a form of TENS that uses an electrical current of similar vibration to the body's own cells. This stimulates cells to function at peak capacity.
Studies have shown microcurrent therapy accelerates healing of traumatic injuries, suppresses Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS), and offers highly effective and long-lasting pain control.
Strategic placement of the SimulCare II pad will recruit appropriate muscle fibers for strength building to avoid future injury and produce a warming effect in sore or injured muscles.

LED Red Light (640 nm)
LED red light increases the energy inside cells that speeds up healing. It is considered a Photo-biostimulation modality used to increase circulation and trigger nitric oxide from the promotion of RBC (red blood cell) oxygen potential.
Studies have shown that red light therapy is effective in reducing musculoskeletal pain and decreasing inflammatory cells.
Used extensively to treat injuries in soft tissue areas as well as systematic trigger points, red light can penetrate 15 millimeters beneath the skin producing thermal vibration (heat).
SimulCare II's LED red light provides a soothing and pain-relieving effect.
LED Infrared Light (870 nm)
LED infrared light therapy uses a low-level laser light from below the red spectrum and couples the positive effects of red light with the added benefits of heat to help heal deep tissue and speed recovery.
Compared to red light, infrared light penetrates more deeply and activates the electron transport chain, increasing ATP that carries and transfers energy in the body's cells.
LED infrared light treatment has been shown to elevate blood circulation and reduce fatigue in athletes, help reduce pain and stiffness associated with arthritis and chronic back pain, and even inhibit the reproduction of cancer cells.
Vibratory Massage

Five levels of vibratory massage therapy increase blood flow and oxygen to the area and encourage the removal of cellular waste.
The hyperemic reaction and thermal vibration reduces edema and muscle spasms around the injury. Vibratory massage may be used to soothe the affected area itself or applied to adjacent areas for very sensitive injuries.
Studies have shown that vibratory massage significantly reduces soreness after exercise for up to 72 hours, enabling athletes to get back to their training routines sooner. Additionally, vibratory massage has been used to successfully improve muscle strength and range of motion post-surgery and help manage chronic pain.
Pulsed Magnetic Therapy

Low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) stimulate healthy, natural function of the body’s cells.
All cells contain a natural charge that diminishes when ill or injured, and application of a magnetic current like that of pulsed electromagnetic therapy can help restore the cells’ optimal energy.
PEMF therapy also helps decrease inflammation and pain and increase blood oxygen levels and circulation. The end result is faster, more effective healing starting at the cellular level.
