Athlete's Comments About DEEP OSCILLATION® Therapy by
the HIVAMAT® 200Freddy Sanchez has endorsed DEEP
OSCILLATION®
Freddy Sanchez, 2006 National League Batting Champion & Pittsburg Pirates All-Star 3rd
Baseman has endorsed DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy by the HIVAMAT® 200.
Freddy says, “I use the HIVAMAT® whenever I have any sort of nagging pain or tightness
throughout my body. Whenever I feel something come up, I just turn to the best machine I've
ever used!! I really do think it keeps me on the field.
During the season as all baseball players know, aches and pains happen. One time I fouled a
pitch off of my calf/shin during spring training and I had a lot of swelling that I thought would
keep me out for days, but thanks to the HIVAMAT®, I was back out there the next day!! I
would recommend the HIVAMAT® to anyone!!”

European Champion Free Climbing 2000/ German Champion
Bouldering 2004

Katrin Sedlmayer, European Champion Free Climbing in 2000 and German Champion Bouldering
in 2004, recommends DEEP OSCILLATION® after injury of her annular ligaments.
Katrin says: “When I faced the rupture of three of my annular ligaments in the middle finger of
my left hand I was pretty much desperate in regard of my future climbing activities, if you climb
you know what an injury like this means. The surprise came with DEEP OSCILLATION® from
PHYSIOMED. Within a few months I could get back to moderate climbing, and now my fingers
seem to be even more strong than before! I do really believe that this device helped me a lot to
recover fast.”
The HIVAMAT® 200 has changed the way we treat our
players
The HIVAMAT® 200 has changed the way we treat our players with the Atlanta Thrashers.
Since being introduced to the HIVAMAT®, we started implementing this into our treatment
programs. From muscle spasms to deep thigh contusions to post-surgical scar reduction, it has
changed the way we handle acute and chronic problems. Also with its battery life, we are able
to treat players on charter flights and in hotel rooms when we travel. I know that from now on
I will always have a HIVAMAT in my training room!

We have seen some amazing results with the HIVAMAT®
200
Since we purchase the HIVAMAT® 200, we have seen some amazing results. It definitely
moves edema better than any other modality we have. We have also had a lot of success with
chronic conditions, such as tendonitis and bursitis.
As Athletic Trainers we are always trying to find the quickest route and the quickest treatment
in order to get the athletes back on the field. We have found the benefits we obtain from the
HIVAMAT®, far outweigh the time that it takes to complete a treatment.

....the success rate of treating patients with the HIVAMAT® 200 is by far the greatest success
rate in my experience as a chiropractic physician utilizing any and all other modalities...
Therapy cut my recovery time in half
Jacqueline Pacheco - senior softball player at Nicholls State University - DEEP OSCILLATION®
THERAPY cut my recovery time in half.
"I dislocated my elbow on February 18 during the last few innings of our game that day. The
entire week I gradually was able to increase the level of my rehab, depending on the range of
motion I could get theat day. Still, with all the rehab that I was doing my progress was slow,
leaving me questionable for our conference series that next week, February 27 & 28. After 3

sessions of treatment with DEEP OSCILLATION®, on the 23rd, I noticed that the pressure
around my elbow joint had decreased, the bruising and swelling had gone down significantly and
my range of motion was almost completely back. I was able to workout, hit and catch yesterday
and today at 100%, 5 days after my dislocation and its all because of DEEP OSCILLATION®
THERAPY. Although, I still have to wear a brace to play for a little while Deep Oscillation®
therapy had a lot of influence on my recovery time and the over all feeling of my elbow. I will be
able to get back to playing almost 9 days after my injury because of the boost DEEP
OSCILLATION® THERAPY gave me. DEEP OSCILLATION® THERAPY cut my recovery time in
half."

HIVAMAT® helps my arthritis pain
“My arthritis acts up regularly and makes it very difficult for me to get daily chores done. The
only treatment that I have gotten that helps significantly is the Hivamat. After one treatment to
the painful areas, I get immediate relief. This relief lasts long enough for me to go about my
daily life. I am terribly grateful to have the Hivamat as an option to relieve my pain.”

DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy relieved 100% of my pain
“I sprained my finger, at work over two weeks ago and have had severe pain in my hand and up
my arm. DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy relieved 100% of my pain and swelling in one
treatment! I thought therapy was going to hurt; I am thrilled at how good the treatment felt
and how I feel afterward.”

Gabi Hollerieth: Faster healing of the scar
After my second cesarean a friend recommended the DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy to me to
get a better and faster healing of the scar. I used the device every day one or two times for just
about 10-15 minutes. When I eventually visited my doctor after about two weeks he looked at
me amazed and said he had never seen such a clean and smooth cicatrisation before!

HIVAMAT® 200 Treatments have eased my pain
Stan Stephens, a patient utilizing the Hivamat 200 treatments says “I have had pain from a
neuropathy in my leg that is the worst pain I have ever had. Hivamat treatments have eased
that. I think it’s incredible!”

Lillian Crook: purchased HIVAMAT® 200 for hospital

When Lillian Crook, a recent patient came to Baton Rouge General, she was one of the first
patients to use a new piece of equipment called a Hivamat. The device speeds healing by
sending a gentle pulsing message to the injured area. Mrs. Crook loved the Hivamat so much
that she graciously offered to purchase a second Hivamat so that other patients could benefit
from the therapy. A luncheon was held in her honor.
Tremendous results using DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy
We have been using DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy in our three outpatient physical therapy
facilities now for the past two years with tremendous results! Our patients have shown a
dramatic improvement in the outcomes that we have seen in the past for the same pathologies.
Since we’ve started using the unit we have seen a reduction in number of treatments needed to
reach outcome goals with most all of the pathologies treated. Our success with the patients sent
to us has resulted in a huge increase in the new patients we have received from the carious
physicians in the area! It truly has been a win-win situation for our patients, doctors, insurance
providers and our facility. With the use of the HIVAMAT® unit we have been able to help our
patients reach their rehab goals in a much shorter time thus keeping them as well as their
insurance companies and doctors very happy. Thank you for introducing us to the HIVAMAT®
unit!

DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy is a breakthrough!
The HIVAMAT® has become our treatment of choice for nearly all of the musculoskeletal injuries
and lymphedema patients that we see. It has also greatly improved the efficacy of the other
modalities that we use. I was initially a skeptic, but the first two patients that were treated to
demonstrate the unit (a post op lumbar discectomy and post arthroscopic degenerative knee),
both walked out pain free. Since then, I have used it on all types of patients with equally
phenomenal results. I used it on a quadriplegic patient (incomplete lesion) and relieved his nine
month history of bilateral shoulder tendonitis in one treatment. After treating his cervical area
several times, he had an onset of sensory return in his lower extremities. In my experience,
nearly all of the patients that receive the DEEP OSCILLATION® treatment receive significant
pain relief. We are getting referrals now specifically for the HIVAMAT and it has proven to be a
valuable marketing tool and an asset to our practice. In my 27 years as a physical therapist, I
have seen a lot of modalities come and go. But DEEP OSCILLATION® therapy is a breakthrough
that I believe will be around a long time.

It’s great to have a piece of equipment that is this effective!
We have used the HIVAMAT® for about a month and already are finding its usefulness beyond
expectations. Some examples include immediate decrease in post surgical shoulder swelling
giving 40 degrees increase in previously painful motion, tolerance to resisted exercise for
guarded tennis elbow in one session and patient expressed relaxation of spasming back muscles
allowing for increased range of motion. With insurance restrictions abounding, it’s great to have
a piece of equipment that is this effective. We particularly appreciate the follow up training
received thru Advantage Medical to bring us quickly up to speed in the use of the HIVAMAT®.

The HIVAMAT® produces both positive outcomes & high
patient satisfaction
I am writing to tell you of the wonderful results that we are achieving with our patients since we
have begun to use the HIVAMAT as part of their therapy programs. Currently we are using the
HIVAMAT on a variety of patient diagnosis and conditions and find that it is producing both
positive outcomes and high patient satisfaction.
One particular case that stands out in my mind is that of an elderly female patient who was
admitted to the Inpatient Rehab Unit with the diagnosis of new transtibial amputation. The
patient was experiencing severe pain in the involved lower extremity, to the extent that she
could not tolerate anyone touching the leg or mobilizing the knee joint. The involved distal
extremity presented with an incision that had a small open, draining area and surrounding skin
that was darkly discolored and cool to the touch. Increased edema was present throughout the
lower extremity. The patient’s vascular surgeon voiced concerns that these symptoms indicated
a poor ability to heal. He was concerned that he may have to schedule additional surgery for a
revision with advancement to a transfermoral amputation.
HIVAMAT treatments were initiated and well tolerated by the patient; with her voicing that she
felt pain relief for the first time since her surgery. After the first treatment she was able to
participate in the therapy regime for the first time since arriving on the Rehab Unit. The patient
was treated daily for a week, with marked improvement noted in both pain control and skin
coloration. Edema began to subside, and the skin became warm to the touch. The patient’s
vascular surgeon was extremely pleased with the treatment results and that no additional
surgery was necessary.
The patient has progressed in her therapy program and now has been fitted with a prosthetic
let. She is currently in training with the prosthesis and able to walk for short distances.
This patient is very pleased with the outcome of her therapy program and states “it’s all
because of that machine” as the reason why she is doing so well. I just wanted to share with
you this great success story.

Patient has less pain with HIVAMAT® 200 treatements
I have been using DEEP OSCILLATION® on a middle aged woman with chronic low back pain.
She had back surgery a little over a year ago and has been living on pain killers ever since. Her
dysfunction has limited her ability to work such that she is in the process of applying for
disability. The doctor sent her to me for Strain Counterstrain treatment because regular
exercise-based treatment was not helping her. While I have only treated her twice with DEEP
OSCILLATION®, she is excited by the fact that she feels significantly less pain and has not had
to consume so many pain pills.
I am very excited about the benefits of using the HIVAMAT® 200. If I was sales oriented, I
would be asking you for a job because this is something I could sell! As a physical therapist,
though, I reap a huge reward in seeing the look in my patient’s faces when they tell me how
good they feel. To me, that’s everything!

John V. Williams, M.D., F.A.C.S., at the Aesthetic Surgery Center, Inc., in Baton Rouge, is the
only plastic surgeon in Louisiana to use Hivamat Electrostatic Massage Therapy in his practice.
HIVAMAT® Electrostatic Massage Therapy uses pulsed electrostatic energy to create a field in
the affected area. The result is resonant oscillation that penetrates the deep tissue and
stimulates the body's natural recovery process. With minimal pressure, the therapist can
penetrate the core of the affected area. Advantages of undergoing therapy with the Hivamat
System include:
* Treatment of a wide variety of post cosmetic procedures
* Effective treatment of edema (acceleration of lymph flow)
* Treatment of a wide array of sports-related injuries (acute, subacute, and chronic) as well
as pain resulting from muscular exertion
* Comfortable relaxation therapy for tranquilization and regeneration
* Decreased bruising
HIVAMAT® Electrostatic Massage Therapy is used by the NFL to reduce player downtime. This
therapy decreases our patients' recovery time by promoting the healing process and increasing
the body's natural rate of recovery.

The HIVAMAT® 200 has turned out to be our most popular treatment and we have had great
results with everything from rotator cuff tendonitis to lumbar strain to plantar fasciatis. The unit
is easy to use and seems to help our patients from their very first treatment.
