Occupational therapists are specialists who adapt different therapeutic solutions for veteran patients going through
physical, mental and emotional trauma. By incorporating new techniques, therapists help patients develop, recover and
improve skills to overcome their trauma so they can get back to leading a normal life. Therapists also teach wounded
veterans with permanent disabilities how to use specially designed equipment and helping devices to assist them with
day-to-day living. Although many patients rely on equipment and devices to assist them with daily routines, some still
remain in continual chronic pain.
When therapists introduce the Tennant Biomodulators and Biotransducer into recovery therapy, veteran patients often
experience an immediate reduction in pain. In some cases, treatment eliminates their pain altogether, so patients heal faster
and in turn, live a more productive, happy life. These devices can be instrumental in calming PTSD. The use of the
Biomodulator and Biotransducer is an extremely eective adjunctive solution for treating and healing chronic wounds
without the use of drugs.
Veteran patient conditions treated by OTs using the Tennant Biomodulators and Biotransducer devices include, but are not
limited to:
Stroke Patients Mental Health Concussion/Head Injuries
Pediatric Disabilities Geriatric Specialization Spinal Cord Injuries
Physical Rehabilitation Veteran PTSD/ANS Conditions Wound Healing
Muscle Contractures Amputation Cognitive Impairment/Confusion
Hand Injuries
Case Study
A Patient diagnosed with a crushed tibia was given an original prognosis of six to eight weeks recovery time before
attempting to walk. After three weeks of treatments with the Tennant Biomodulator therapy, the patient entered physical
therapy to fully regain his walking abilities. Final X-rays showed the tibia had rebuilt solid bone where it had been crushed.
