Request an AppointmentWhat Is Hako-Med Horizontal Therapy?
Hako-Med horizontal therapy is a painless form of electrical stimulation that encourages your body to heal naturally. Traditional electrotherapy, like a TENS unit, mainly changes signal intensity to block pain at the surface. Horizontal therapy is different: it varies both frequency and intensity at the same time, delivering high-frequency energy deeper into tissues to stimulate cells at a metabolic level.
The result is better circulation, faster recovery, and reduced pain without drugs or injections. Our team customizes each session to your needs, adjusting placement and settings for your specific condition.
Conditions We Treat With Hako-Med Horizontal Therapy
Hako-Med is gentle and effective for many conditions, especially those involving damaged peripheral nerves:
- Peripheral neuropathy – numbness, tingling, and burning in the feet and hands
- Circulation problems – stimulating healthy blood flow and vascular function
- Chronic pain – promoting endorphin release and joint and tissue healing
- Headaches and migraines – improved circulation can ease frequency and intensity
- Inflammation – helping calm irritated tissues for lasting relief
- Arthritis, joint pain, and knee pain
Benefits of Hako-Med Horizontal Therapy
Patients benefit from natural pain management that stimulates the body’s own healing processes, support for cell regeneration and tissue repair, and muscle stimulation that helps strengthen weak muscles and reverse atrophy. Many neuropathy patients also report better sleep as nighttime burning and tingling ease.
A Key Part of Our Neuropathy Program
For best results, Hako-Med is combined with cold laser therapy, balance and strength training through physical therapy, supportive custom orthotics, and nutrition and wellness guidance. If your symptoms are related to the spine, chiropractic care or spinal decompression may also be recommended.
