    The EXOGEN◊ Bone Healing System utilises low-intensity ultrasound to accelerate the healing of fresh fractures up to 38% faster than normal healing

Curtis

Curtis Tolson, a professional cyclist, broke his collarbone and shoulder blade in a road accident.For Tolson, a speedy recovery was especially important. When the crash happened, he was just eight weeks from the national competition to defend his titles.

Tolson's orthopaedic specialist prescribed treatment with EXOGEN◊, in hopes of speeding his recovery.The treatment was administered for 20 minutes, twice a day. EXOGEN◊ transmits a low intensity ultrasound signal to the fracture that accelerates bone healing.

Tolson says he "was riding on the road in 10 days” and “was doing push ups in six weeks."
