Eliminate Pain. Restore Function.
H-Wave succeeds where pharmacologic solutions and traditional e-stim can’t.
H-Wave gives you a new option for treating soft tissue injuries and chronic pain. This scientifically proven, drug free alternative not only relieves pain but also helps patients achieve long-lasting, rehabilitative benefits. It’s available for in-home use, which can help keep your patients more compliant with their rehabilitative or post-operative care, and gets them more engaged in managing their condition.
With Home H-Wave, there’s no need to incur additional costs by purchasing expensive equipment for your practice or office. Simply writing a prescription can start your patients on their path to significant pain relief and restored functional mobility without the need for added pain medication.

Pain Needs A New Approach
With opiate abuse and addiction on the rise, there’s never been a greater need for effective, non-pharmacologic pain relief.
Painkiller misuse and abuse in the United States has been called an epidemic. Deaths attributed to painkiller abuse has risen 300% since 1990, resulting in nearly 100 deaths a day2. Among workers’ compensation patients, the total costs for increased absences, decreased productivity, and higher claims totals $1.2 billion dollars.3
When used for extended periods of time,
drugs can:
- Impede recovery and improvement of function
- Create addiction
- Lose effectiveness
- Increase cost of treatment by $100,000 or more
- Prevent patients from working or other daily activities
- Increase risk of depression and other serious medical issues
“Prolonged use of narcotic medications may cause both physiologic and psychological addiction and may reduce the body’s supply of endorphins, causing depression and delayed recovery.5
Pain medications are typically not useful in the subacute and chronic phases and have been shown to be the most important factor impeding recovery of function…”5

How It Works
With two different treatment modes, H-Wave can be used during multiple phases of injury and recovery
MODE 1: LOW FREQUENCY
Active Rehabilitation to Unblock the Pathway to Recovery
The H-Wave device delivers a low-voltage current that promotes injury recovery and rehabilitation by inducing non-fatiguing muscle contractions that result in interstitial fluid shifts. This process helps eliminate the accumulation of proteins that are often at the root of pain and disability, and it also supports improved circulation and angiogenesis. H-Wave benefits are cumulative and lasting, so over time, a patient can expect to see increased functionality and a reduced need for medication.4
Mode 2: HIGH FREQUENCY
Breaking the Chronic Pain Cycle
In high-frequency mode, researchers believe that H-Wave works by affecting the function of the sodium pump within the nerve and thereby creates a profound anesthetic / analgesic effect. The pain relief is so potent that the FDA has cleared H-Wave for use as dental anesthesia. Unlike TENS, these benefits last long after the device is taken off. Only a 30-60 minute session is needed for hours of relief.
