REAC neurobiological treatments in acute post-traumatic knee medial collateral ligament lesion

Abstract

Objective Physical traumas can lead to unconscious neuropsychical alterations, which can compromise rehabilitation result and functional recovery. Aim of this interventional study is to verify if neurobiological Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyer (REAC) treatments Neuro Postural Optimization (NPO) and Tissue Optimization (TO) are able respectively to improve neuro psychomotor strategies and facilitate recovery process in medial collateral ligaments (MCL) lesions of the knee. Patients and methods 45 healthy subjects, 32 males and 13 females, with knee MCL lesion, diagnosed with MRI or ultrasound. Within 4 days after the trauma, subjects were clinically evaluated (T0), both through medical and subjective assessments. Clinical evaluation was repeated after the REAC NPO treatment (T1) and at the end of 18 REAC TO treatments (T2) and at the 30 days follow-up (T3). Results In comparison with the results commonly found in clinical practice, all REAC treated patients recovered much faster. They reported functional recovery, pain relief and joint stability, regardless of the severity of the lesion. Conclusion The combined use of REAC NPO and TO can envisage a new rehabilitative approach, which aims not only at recovering the outcomes of the physical trauma, but also at improving the neuropsychical state that can condition the rehabilitation result.

Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyer Tissue Reparative Treatment on Post-surgical Breast Skin Necrosis. A Report of Four Cases

“…The REAC peculiar mechanism of action does not consist in the administration of an exogenous current, but it determines the progressive restoration of the asymmetries of electrical charges in tissues [ 11 - 13 ]. This phenomenon allows the recovery of ionic flows and therefore of the cellular EBA, which is essential to activate the fine reparative processes of the tissues [ 11 - 13 ].…”

“…The REAC functional recovery of the correct EBA is able to promote reparative [ 11 , 14 , 15 ] and regenerative processes [ 16 - 18 ], up to determining phenomena of direct cellular reprogramming [ 12 , 13 , 19 , 20 ]. The possibility of obtaining refined reparative processes in a short time is particularly useful when it is desirable to achieve results that are also aesthetically pleasing, such as in the cases reported in this manuscript.…”

Effects of the radio electric asymmetric conveyer (REAC) on motor disorders: An integrative review

“…Barcessat et al demonstrated that REAC technology appears to be effective in reducing anxiety and stress. Thus, if we consider anxiety and stress as factors involved in atypical swallowing, we can assume that the bioelectrical modulation provided by REAC may favor the correction of the swallowing mechanism in patients with atypical swallowing (5).…”

“…The radio electric asymmetric conveyer (REAC) technology aims to elicit cellular reprogramming activity and modulate adaptive responses in the body by restoring the balance of cellular endogenous bioelectric fields (1). It has been the target of studies in diverse areas of health sciences such as neurology (2,3), orthopedics (4,5), gerontology (6), cardiology (7), rheumatology (8) and histopathology (9)(10)(11). The basis for achieving the desired effects of REAC technology is the endogenous bioelectricity which affects neural and cellular processing mechanisms and, under pathological conditions, would be unbalanced (11).…”

“…According to , the REAC technology, especially its neuromodulation protocols, allows the regulation and modulation of endogenous bioelectric fields and, in this way, promotes better functioning of neuronal circuits (12)(13)(14). In addition, a balanced electric field is fundamental for cellular metabolism since cell activity is directly linked to electricity in the intra and extracellular environments (5).…”
