Put Simply

It has long been accepted that low intensity electricity has the potential to influence and alter biological and physiological processes. Research has shown that micro-current has the greatest potential of all present electrical stimulation based therapies. Synapse believes that identifying exactly how micro-current therapy works is pivotal to delivering the optimal treatment. Our product range reflects this philosophy.

The Tendonworks™ treatment significantly increases the level of cellular activity which in turn increases the rate of collagen production that has the effect of reducing the incidence of chronic degeneration (the major cause of injury) and promotes a quicker repair in tendons that are damaged.  In addition, the repair tissue is the same type as the original tendon tissue (a type 1 collagen) not a scar-type repair (type III collagen as normally happens with other treatments) so reducing the chance of re-injury.
