My patient got more pain when I tried Infratonic Therapy. What’s going on?
Sometimes, when patients have a chronic condition, the brain has lowered the rate of communication to the affected area. This is the body’s way of alleviating some of the pain. By cutting down on the amount of communication with the troubled area, the brain can eliminate some of the pain. Infratonic Therapy will reestablish the lost communication with the affected area, which initially can increase the pain. This is a sign that the treatment is working. Continued use of Infratonic Therapy will reduce the pain, discomfort and swelling. Where people have reported an initial increase in pain, they almost universally report a highly significant improvement in their condition later on.
