CuraMedix’s dedication to non-invasive treatment options with EPAT® is not limited to the development, distribution and utilization of the latest medical device technologies. Educating the medical professional & patient population by providing them with detailed information on the most advanced non-invasive surgical alternatives, risk factors and treatment options with EPAT® is equally important to our mission. In the constant pursuit to minimize the need for traditional surgical procedures for musculoskeletal conditions, CuraMedix recognizes that treating with EPAT® and improving immediate and long-term patient outcomes start with an informed patient.
Innovative Technologies for Advanced Healing™ can have a multitude of meanings. For a patient with musculoskeletal disorders, this can represent a fast-track to resuming normal activities without the risks or side effects of traditional surgery.
D-Actor® with EPAT® Technology offers patients a gentle, fast, safe and effective non-invasive treatment without the need for ultrasound guidance, anesthesia, medication or surgical intervention to achieve effective results. Treatment session takes minutes to complete and the patient feels mild discomfort.
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT®) is a proprietary technology based on unique sets of acoustic pressure waves that stimulate healing.
These unique pressure waves stimulate the early expression of angiogenesis related growth factors including eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase), VEGF (vessel endothelial growth factor) and PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen). This promotes neovascularisation, improves blood supply and increases cell proliferation and tissue regeneration to repair soft tissues.
CuraMedix attends and hosts a variety of medical meetings and physician education programs. If you are interested in sponsoring or participating in a CuraMedix medical meeting or physician education program, please contact: physicianeducationteam@curamedix.com
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Treatment (EPAT®) (‘extracorporeal’ meaning ‘outside the body’) is a fast, safe and effective non-invasive treatment option that reduces the recovery period and eliminates the risks associated with traditional surgery.
This non-invasive (no incision) treatment involves the delivery of our unique acoustic pressure waves to the effected areas of the body which stimulates the body’s own natural repair mechanisms and fast-tracks the healing process.
EPAT® is an innovative step forward in non-invasive technology. Precisely controlled and released via a hand piece applicator, the unique sets of acoustic pressure waves transmit from the point of contact at the skin surface to the affected area. The pressure wave energy is propagated through a radial expansion, to the affected soft tissue.
