6. Mechanism of Action
Accelerated Healing
Increased blood flow serves to warm the injured region and bring oxygen and nutrients to
the region to enhance tissue healing. The extended duration treatment of pulsed EMF has
also been shown to directly enhance cell mobility, which accelerates tissue healing.
Safe and Effective Pain Relief
The physiological response effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields are achieved with the soft
tissue through a mechanism referred to as stochastic resonance. Stochastic resonance is a
phenomenon where a periodic signal is boosted over a critical threshold by ambient noise in
the system. The EMF of 27 MHz penetrates deeply into the body tissues, creating low level
electrical fields which, in combination with electrical "noise" in the tissues, is able to significantly
influence nerve activity.
Activated sensory nerves operate through a feedback loop
to trigger motor nerves which results in muscle contractions.
The increased muscle activity enhances blood flow into the
treated area, and as well, pumps out lymphatic fluid to
reduce swelling and pain.

8. Clinical Effects of RecoveryRx®
When an injury occurs, cells separate and
swelling starts to develop in the injured tissues
which causes pain. Also, chemical signals are
released by cells in the injury site activating
nerves and causing an electrical impulse
which signals pain in the injured tissue.
Therefore, a reduction in tissue swelling
“inflammation” reduces pain and allows
injuries to heal.
Injured Tissue
RecoveryRx® accelerates injury recovery by
increasing blood flow and reducing swelling.
RecoveryRx® delivers a safe form of energy
to the injured cells, which is used by the cells
to recover and reduce inflammation. The
application of this extended treatment device
therefore results in a decrease in pain and
accelerated tissue repair.
Inflammation and
swelling cause pain
Healing Tissue
The inflammation and
swelling is reduced
resulting in pain relief

9. Biological Evidence of Effectiveness
• Research has shown up-regulation of both mRNA and opioid
peptide in response to exposure to pulsed shortwave
electromagnetic field at 27.12MHZ1.
• Cellular, animal and clinical results provide support for
Ca/CaM-dependent NO production as an important mediator
that may explain the observed effects of pulsed shortwave on
tissue repair, angiogenesis, pain and inflammation in many
studies2.
• Cellular and clinical research has shown pulsed shortwave
therapy decreases inflammation3.
• Studied effects on diabetic mice show decreased time to heal
wounds and increased collagen production4.

10. In Vitro Wound Healing
Experiment:
• Human dermal fibroblasts grown to confluence in cell culture dishes treated with mitomycin C to inhibit proliferation
and re-plated to form uniform monolayers.
• Cell monolayers were then wounded and exposed to RecoveryRxor untreated controls.
• Wound area assessed on day 1, day 2 and day 3 and expressed as wound size and percent of wound closure –
(wound size assessed by three blinded researchers).
• On each day the treated cells wound size was significantly smaller. At day 3 wound closure
was 75% in the treated cell compared to 50% in the untreated cells.

11. Human Skin Wounds Experiment
• Experiment 1: Full thickness 2 cm wounds inner calf of a volunteer – placebo or actively
treated – biopsied at 9 months
• Experiment 2: double blind randomized experiment - 20 volunteers 3 mm diameter full
thickness wounds – 10 placebo – 10 actively treated. Biopsy at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days.
Results
Active RF treatment provides earlier:
• Epidermal budding
• Migration into the wound
• Appearance of rete ridges
• Normal depth of final epidermis
Conclusion
• Rate of healing was accelerated and the healed epidermis was more like normal skin
than the scar tissue.
• Active treated wounds healed in 39 days vs. placebo 54 days (Experiment #1)

35. 1) Is RecoveryRx® safe?
Yes. Shortwave therapies have a long history of safe use. RecoveryRx® is a non-invasive, localized therapy
which can be worn by diabetics, arthritics, the elderly and bedridden. Over 500,000 products have sold
worldwide with no adverse effects.
2) Is RecoveryRx® safe to use with metal implants and pacemakers?
The RF field strength is too low for any significant heating from implanted metal so it is safe for all metal
implants. There is no concern for pacemakers as they have built in RF protection. Though as a precaution,
we don’t recommend using directly over the pacemaker.
3) Is RecoveryRx® a magnet?
No. RecoveryRx® is not a magnet. It is a battery operated, pulsed shortwave electromagnetic field medical
device. When activated, RecoveryRx® uses a pulsed shortwave radiofrequency to deliver a low level of
energy into the injured tissue reducing pain, inflammation and promoting healing.
4) What will my patients feel when using the device?
Only better. They will not feel the low level energy that is gently pulsed into the cells to restore damaged
tissue. The device is sensation and odor free.
Frequently Asked Questions
42
www.EchelonHealthPro.com
36. 5) How long until the patient will begin to feel relief?
Pain is a very subjective sensation; however, patient pain levels will begin to subside typically after only 2-3
hours of wearing the device and will continue to lessen as long as the device is being used continuously.
6) Can the patient wear more than one device?
Yes. You can wear more than one RecoveryRx® medical device at a time just as long as more than one
device is not directly on top of another.
7) Does RecoveryRx® need to be in direct contact with the skin?
No. While RecoveryRx® can be used in direct contact with the skin, the device’s energy is able to pass
through wound dressing, various wraps and light clothing for easy application.
8) Can RecoveryRx® be placed under compression dressings?
No. RecoveryRx® can’t be used under compression dressings; however, the device can be used over the
compression dressing with the energy passing through to the tissue below.
