What is different about Hakomed in Novato CA?

Hakomed is a German company. The German's engineered and constructed this state-of-the-art device to develop a distinctive electrotherapy treatment model-Horizontal Therapy.

Hako-Med, is unique because of it's patented horizontal wave form, which provides a combination of all types of electro-medical treatment and represents a revolution in electro-medicine.

Over the years, the field of electro-medicine have given us electrical muscle stimulation: TENS therapy, and interferential therapy. Each of these methods of electrotherapy plays a specific part in addressing a variety of conditions but only provide bioelectric effects where PRO ElecDT 2000 with Horizontal Therapy provides both biochemical and bioelectric for faster healing.

Hakomed has progressed and is the only patented therapy that allows the simultaneous formation of biochemical and bioelectric effects in the same tissue. See the below explanation to get clarity on why this is important. It is the most advanced form of electrotherapy offered.

The Importance of Cell Communication

Communication between cells occurs in two ways: bio-electrically and bio-chemically. That communication takes place through electrical currents and chemical messengers whether the cells are in bone, muscle, ligament or nerve tissue. Pain and disease happen when there is an impairment in cellular communication. A person also can lose normal function.

In past years, bioelectrical or biochemical communication could be boosted with electrotherapy at one time, but not both simultaneously. With Horizontal Therapy, both bioelectrical and biochemical elements can be addressed in a single session. By maintaining the bioelectric intensity but adjusting the frequency, Horizontal Therapy can have an extensive range of physiologic outcomes. The PRO ElecDT 2000 preset programs are created to accomplish this automatically.
