The Sonic Relief has been amazing! I had been trying to run through my Achilles Tendonitis for about 4 - 6 weeks when I realized I needed to do something about it. I previously had Achilles Tendonitis and went to physical therapy twice a week for two months. This time, I was training for a marathon and didn't want to waste the time AND money going to a physical therapist. When I came across the website, I figured it was worth a try. The Sonic Relief COMPLETELY cured the pain and allowed me to continue training after only three weeks, which has allowed me to get back on track for my marathon. I recommend the Sonic Relief to anyone.

Sonic Relief totally 'healed' my severe case of Tendonitis. In fact, my tennis elbow was so severe, I had golf ball size inflammation at the site. The sonic care gel is so soothing. It has been a year now. Still playing tennis. No pain, no swelling, no arm bands or braces. I've even used it on my lower back after a day of pulling weeds, with the same great results I am recommending it to all my tennis friends. Definitely worth the money.

Hi, I have been having trouble with my achilles tendon for the past two months. No amount of rest or NSAID was making any difference. I came across your website and decided to give your little machine a try - I am so impressed with it!! I have been treating my tendon for 2 weeks and the pain is virtually gone and I am now back to my full exercise schedule. I am so pleased - thank you.

Prior to having been invited and joining a basketball league a year ago, the last time I played the sport was about 10 years and 60 pounds ago. At 5'7" I used to be able to dunk the basketball and never had any real problems with my body. Now at 34 years of age and 200lbs, I started experiencing knee problems about a month into playing. The pains got progressively worse as I kept on forcing myself to play every week until running and jumping were almost unbearable. I took 2 weeks off playing and thought that the pain would be more manageable so I decided to play. The real pain started when I jumped up for a layup and landed on one leg having to support my weight. All my stubborness went out the window and at that point I knew I could not play as the pain bothered me like never before. I love playing basketball. It is the thought of playing every friday that got me through my hectic week. I found out my condition was tendinitis/bursitis but did not have time for the demands of going for therapy. I tried all the gimmicks I could find on the internet including the homeopathic pill that did not do anything for me. Then I found Sonic Relief. Just after four days I saw the swelling on my knees subside and the pain slowly dissipate; and being the stubborn fella that I am, decided to test it playing basketball. The pain was significantly less allowing me to shoot my jump shots and grab some rebounds which I was not able to do for awhile now after initially feeling the pain. I am now 2 weeks into the treatment and the swelling is almost completely gone. I still play basketball cautiously trying not to reaggrevate the injury but my knee is feeling alot, lot better thanks to Sonic Relief.

I used sonic relief for the Tendonitis in my elbow and I was about 90 percent pain free then the device shorted out and stopped working so please fill out your warranty registration. I am sure Home therapetics will fix this problem. The device does work.
** The reviewer will definitely receive a replacement unit when their warranty return is processed. **

As an avid bodybuilder for more than twenty years, I've had my share of injuries. I also have arthritis and some Tendonitis. Through the years I tried all the over the counter remedies such as rubs, lotions, heat, ice etc. They brought only limited pain relief. I simply dealt with the pain and eventually it went away. I learned to work around it and sort of baby it until it healed.
Recently I injured my arm while working out and for the first time the normal remedies simply did not help. After several days my wife and I got really concerned and we even started to think that I may end up having to get surgical relief. I injured my arm pretty severly to the point that I had limited range of motion. And to put even as little as ten pounds of resistence on the arm muscle was really painful.
I discovered the Sonic Relief device and decided to give it a try. I'm thrilled to report that in a very short amount of time not only did my arm pain completely vanish, my range of motion returned and I'm back in the gym lifting heavy again. And my arm is even stronger than before I injured it.
I now use my Sonic Relief anytime I have any discomfort. I've had great relief from Tendonitis and arthritis. I've even started using the unit right after a workout. And I find I have far less muscle soreness. And my muscle recovery time is much shorter as well.
Perhaps the best endorsement I can give Sonic Relief is to say that I was so impressed with my results. And I saw so much value and need for a genuine product that truly works to allow people to live pain free, that I now have an FDA license to sell medical equipment and my wife Rhonda and I enthusiastically share this amazing device with everyone. We simply love it.

I am fortunate to have been a national-class age-group runner since 1980. As we continue our involvement "for the long run" we do though increase our risk of ailments. This past spring I happened to come down with a minor heel strain for the first time ever that became official plantar fasciitis at the end of June, forcing me onto the injured reserved list. I figured it made sense to check out ultrasound devices for a purchase rather than just attend a therapy session 2-3 times a week, and was proud to buy a Sonic Relief Ultrasound device (and the gel). Instead of taking maybe six months for the heel discomfort to totally work its way out, I am proud to state that my foot turned around 100% within just a few weeks of Sonic Relief use. I plan on using this magnificent item "forever", and have now moved it up to my right glute area that became a strain a short time ago but is also turning around with my daily use. What a fantastic health & fitness device. I adore it!

I received my sonic relief in the mail about a week ago. I am getting pain relief as described below: I purchased this product to treat my knees. I have arthritis in various spots but my knees are the worst and I have come to the conclusion that it is bursitis and/or tendentious, not arthritis that is causing most of the pain. Recently I had a bursitis attack in my left leg that became inflamed to the point that I could not walk. I was holding on to the wall or furniture or anything I could lean on just to get to the bathroom. The pain was horrible. I did not want to go to the doctor because I knew it would mean a cortisone shot in the knee and I'm not convinced that is the way to go. I treated myself with antibiotics (that I had on hand) for the inflammation and stayed off the leg. I called Sonic Relief and had my order changed to a rush order. After the attack subsided somewhat, I could walk but limped so badly that I could not go out in public because I looked ridiculous with that walk (worse than you can imagine) and also I didn't trust my leg to not give out on me. As soon as I got my sonic relief, I began giving both knees 3 treatments a day around the bursae areas and in the joints. The relief from pain was amazing. My husband is shocked that I stood up straight (not bent over as before) and slowly walked in a somewhat normal gait after only one day of treatment. I am still treating both knees, and I am still in my first week, but I was able to go out in public and do some limited walking for the first time in a couple of months. I still need more treatment and intend to use this wonderful product every day. I have recommended it to my daughter who has heel spurs. Even if I have to use the sonic relief every day, I am thrilled that I can ease my pain without more medication (I'm already taking too much and my stomach is always upset). I am not a big advocate of surgery as I feel it is not always the answer to everything, as some doctors do. Surgery will be my last option. My hope is that, with so much of the pain gone, I will be able to get normal exercise and movement to my legs so that I can "self heal." I am so happy that I found your sonic relief device. I think it is an amazing tool for those of us in pain.

I have left tennis elbow with pain for two years. Had a MRI taken this past month with chronic lateral epicondylitis indicated along with distal bicep tendinitis and inflammation of the distal tricep. Doctor gave me oral steriods and next time would be a shot directly into the elbow. I had surgery for golfer's elbow back in 1999.
May 2007 I had a lipoma weighing at 128 grams removed from the front upper thigh area. Along with a 7 inch incision straight down the thigh. Four months after surgery, the pain in the ham strings and front thigh was gravely painful. Have a massage therapist perform "deep" massage on the left thigh twice a week for an hourly session.
In 2000 I had the L5-S1 lower disc fused because of back pain and actually no disc at all. Followed up with pain management of getting lower steriod injections twice a year.
My wife has planter fascitis in her left foot and has had steriod injections.
I bought the "Sonic Relief" based on what I read from other peoples reviews and did some research on ultrsound. For three weeks I have used this on the left thigh(including the ham strings), and the left elbow. There is a complete difference of pain level, like "none", and my massage therapist said she could feel the difference in the thigh. Presently using this on the wife's foot and she uses it on my lower back. Her foot is less painful. The elbow feels great and can perform light weight exercises. If this device is that good on the thigh and elbow, I'm sure it will help with the lower back.
This product "works"! Recommend it to anybody with pain.

I have been using the Sonic Relief machine on my husband's shoulder lingaments for the last week! He keeps saying its feels so much better. This is an old injury for which he is feeling increasing relief with each treatment he gets! However, I did not buy this machine for him! I bought it for me!!!! I danced flamenco for a long time when young. I have a tiny size five foot, and an extremely high arch. I am also a teacher by profession: always on my feet. All of these factors have combined and have resulted in severe suffering in both of the plantar areas of my feet. I finally gave up on pretty shoes, and began wearing old laced up grandma shoes. My pain nevertheless got really bad. Then last year I did something foolish: I wore some boots on a cold day, and walked all day in them, and even did my teacher-guard duty outside the cafeteria of my school. That was the beginning of sorrows and excruciating pain. The day after I could hardly walk. I rushed to my primary care physician. He diagnosed bilateral plantar fasciitis. He also told me what exercises to do each day...and a friend told me that I needed the boots at night to keep my plantar area upright while I slept. I kept on with the cold, hot treatments, the boots, the exercises....and uglier shoes -- all dressed up while wearing bulky tennis shoes. I even had to take a note to my principal so I could wear tennis shoes while I taught.
This summer of 2007 with more time on my hands (vacation), and with crippling pain which could best be described as if stepping on nails and carrying bricks of cement on each foot each time I stepped I was given a referral to a podiatrist. The first thing I asked my podiatrist was if he recommended a little machine I had read about: sonic relief. He told me not to waste my money on it. However, the same podiatrist gave up on me after the third visit...and sent me to a nerve specialist...and told me I had something like fibromyalgia on my left foot or never damage on it...or something else... he just could not tell... and that a nerve specialist and a pain management doctor could do some procedures to block out the excruciating foot pain. I insisted on an x-ray and an MRI. The MRI confirmed that for the last year I had been doing aggressive therapy (as prescribed by my primary care physician) on micro tears on my plantar ligaments, that I had inflammed tissues, plantar fasciitis, two big sized heel spurs, and a cyst... and a bunion, plus some arthritis on my my toes on my left foot. My right foot showed inflammation, a big heal spur, and arthritis with a bigger bunion, and another condition. My podiatri[s]t had me place my left foot in a removable leg cast to immobilize the ligament and recommended the nerve specialist. My primary care physcian made a referral for the nerve specialist and recommended I take a pain medication while I waited for the appointment. The pain medication is a medication that has been on the market for about two years (which frankly scares me), and it is primarily prescribed for people who suffer from convulsions and from diabetes. I don't suffer from any of those conditions. However, I was desperate with pain. I started taking the medication for the pain, and immediately within two days the leg swelled to twice its size. I called my pharmacist. He told me to go back to to my primary care physician and report the side effect. I did. My primary care physician told me to take the medication and to increase the dos[e]. He told me my feet would swell, and that the swelling might continue for up to four or even six months, so if I wanted to I could take a diuretic (for which he gave me another prescription). He also told me that he could not do much for me. He had a wheel chair delivered to my home...I have been using it, because both legs hurt so much, and the right leg is in danger of getting just as bad. The school year is about to start-- and I am NOT taking early retirement over this!.
Last week I asked my primary care physician about the possibility of me using a sonic relief machine for the pain.. He told me the heat my hurt me, but he did not know much about it. I asked him about calcium supplements: he did not know much about that for my spurs . I asked him about some natural remedy for the swelling on my leg....he told me that if he did not see studies on it, he did not believe in it. What both doctors did not know is that I had already sent for the little machine and for calcium supplements....and that I had been considering taking a natural supplement to bring down the swelling ...
In essence, a patient needs to be extremely pro-active: the doctors don't feel the pain. As well intended as most medical doctors may be, they are primarily trained to refer a patient to a specialist...to do surgery, and/or use prescription medications...inspite of all the complex side-effects that might result! Natural remedies, nutrional approaches, or any other form of alternate remedies are not encouraged.
I have my sonic relief machine now...I have been faithful to two treaments per day for the last four days. The gel penetrates the tissues. It leaves the area in my plantar feeling cool. Then, within the hour the healing in the tissue begins to feel warm and penetrating, and tingling. I don't know how to describe it. Today I was able to stand up a little longer. I am not returning the machine. I ordered more gel. At this point, I am letting my feet heal with the supplements and with the little quiet machine. I know I need to get the tissues in both feet healthier. I am willing to wait a little longer and use this machine.
