TerraQuant is safe, effective, non-invasive. Accepted world-wide by healthcare professionals!

TerraQuant is a very worthwhile machine. It promotes healing of wounds, tissue regeneration; it reduces the risk for cross infection and contamination between residents. It is not invasive. It does not generate pain when used. It reduces the cost of dressings. It has been well accepted by the staff. It is easily teachable. It follows the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) principle. Often, you will hear one staff member go through the corridors asking, "who has kept the TerraQuant Laser machine for themselves?"

Physiotherapy.

I have found the TerraQuant Laser simple and easy to use. It has been very effective in the treatment of shoulder and elbow problems specifically in tennis elbow. It has also helped to resolve some stubborn sprained ankles. The TerraQuant is also a helpful adjunct for scar management especially in the hand. The TerraQuant laser system has proved a useful tool in our physiotherapy Practice.

Arthritis pain in knee joints and hands.

I have been suffering from severe chronic pain in my knee joints which made bending my knees and going up and down the stairs excruciatingly painful. After ten days of daily TerraQuant treatment, using programs 1 and 2, 20 minutes each day on each knee, I feel a noticeable improvement. The pain has not disappeared, but I can now bend my knees and can walk up and down the stairs with greater ease. I also have arthritis in my hands, and as a hairdresser who shampoos women's hair every day, each time I wet my hands, I feel strong pain. After using TerraQuant on my hands for fifteen consecutive days, I can feel a noticeable reduction in pain. I continue to use TerraQuant every day or every other day both on my knees and on the arthritis in my hands. I thank my daughter every day for buying me TerraQuant as a present.

Ligament injuries.

The TerraQuant has been a God-sent for both me and my athletes. Maybe because of age or lack of care, but a knee ligament injury became chronic. After 2 days and 6 sessions on the TerraQuant the scare tissue was reduced 50% and the pain by 90%. Also, five young athletes have recovered from various twists, bruises, and growing pains after 1 to 3 days on the TerraQuant. Additionally, a parent is finally feeling relief from spinal fusion surgery using the TeraQuant for half a cycle. The TerraQuant is becoming as important to us as our post-training water workouts.

Lower back pain, whiplash, shoulder pain.

Different people can react in different ways, but overall we have been most impressed with the results of all the tests and trials we have run.

Many professionals such as physiotherapists are already using this technology as an alternative to ultrasound. We tried it out on three people with different conditions. Here are their comments:

Jack, aged 50, lower back ache. I was willing to give anything a go as I have had backache on and off for 20 years. You feel like such a little machine can't actually do any good, but after two weeks using it for just 10 minutes a day I started to look forward to my sessions. It was warming and I felt more flexible afterwards. I would like to try it out for longer.

John, aged 46, whiplash. I was on the receiving end of a nasty tackle during a "friendly" Sunday morning rugby tackle. By the evening my neck was really aching and I was dreading what I would be like the next day. I applied the TerraQuant to one specific muscle which felt really stiff for ten minutes. The next morning I could barely feel anything. I am sure it helped warm and relax the muscle. It was almost like it helped release it from a spasm.

Steve aged 22, shoulder pain. I wrenched my shoulder at work while digging and shoveling wet earth. I am a fit guy and quite muscular, but I must have twisted myself while digging and it really hurt. I combined using the TerraQuant with applying icepacks. I used it twice a day for a week and the pain went away.

Coccyx pain.

Bursitis.

Hip bursitis.

Age 72: This retired woman was suffering from left hip pain that reduced her ability to go for long walks and also prevented her from sleeping on her left side. Getting up from a chair or her sofa was painful. Palpation of the great trochanter was painful, and a left hip ultrasound confirmed bursitis. The treatment consisted of eight treatments of TerraQuant (5 minutes variable frequency and 5 minutes at 50 Hz) over a three-week period. At the end of the treatment, the patient was pain-free and could enjoy her walks again. There was no pain at palpation and no limited range of movement of her left hip.

Shoulder bursitis.

Age 28: The injury occurred at work; while digging and shoveling heavy wet earthy clay, the shovel got stuck under a rock, and the patient exerted undue force to try to lift the rock, which did not move an inch. The patient is very muscular and exercises regularly (weight-lifting). The biceps tendon was painful and there was limited abduction at 60 degrees and very limited internal rotation and forward flexion. An ultrasound showed biceps tendon inflammation and partial tear. The treatment consisted of 4 sessions of TerraQuant (10 minutes @ 50Hz) with a prescription for NSAID and ice packs. He was assigned to light duties with a restriction on lifting no more than two kilos. The four sessions of TerraQuant were given over a 10-day period. At the end of the treatment, the patient was pain-free and there was no limitation of movement, and palpation was pain-free.

Achilles tendonitis.

1. Age 34: The acute injury occurred while playing basketball, which he played only occasionally. The Achilles tendon was swollen and acutely painful at palpation. The patient was walking with moderate pain. Treatment consisted of three 10-minute sessions of TerraQuant (10 minutes @ 50Hz) for one week, combined with Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID). At the end of the treatment, the patient was able to walk freely; the Achilles tendon was not painful at palpation.

2. Age 78: This patient had bilateral Achilles tendonitis and bilateral plantar fasciitis for several weeks, with increasing intensity. The pain had not been relieved with paracetamol. The injuries markedly annoyed this patient since he was responsible for the maintenance of his local bowling club and was an ardent player. Treatment consisted of 6 sessions of TerraQuant, combined with NSAID. Each TerraQuant session consisted of 10 minutes at 50Hz for each of the Achilles tendons and each of the plantar fasciitis. The TerraQuant sessions were distributed over a two-week period. At the end of the treatment period, this gentleman was pain-free, and fully enjoyed his bowling again.

Epicondylitis.

42-year-old female with right lateral epicondylitis, pain extending into the extensor area of the forearm (out-cropping muscles). She was instructed in the use of a tennis elbow strap, massage of the extensor muscles and stretching of the muscle bellies. She was also asked to use a topical anti-inflammatory ointment. After presenting with extreme pain, she reported increasing benefit after the first 4 treatments with Low Level Laser Therapy, and was 90%—95% pain-free after 7 treatments. She was encouraged to continue other supportive measures.
