Handy Cure S pulsed laser

Handy Cure S’ is a low-level laser therapy (LLLT) home use device which
combines low-level pulse laser radiation, pulsating infrared radiation,
visible red light, and static magnetic fields. Together these radiances
provide synergistic therapeutic effects. Incorporating all these radiances in
one device has proven to achieve rapid and efficient clinical effects within
a relatively short time.

The Handy Cure S’ is an Over-The-Counter hand-held device heating
lamps intended for pain management with applications that include
temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, arthritis and muscle
spasm, relieving stiffness, promoting relaxation of muscle tissue, and to
temporarily increase local blood circulation where heat is indicated.

Handy Cure S’ is particularly effective in situations where cell tissue has
become inflamed. Cell tissue inflammation is caused from reduced
micro-circulation. The reduction changes the quantity of blood supply to
the cells, resulting in ischemic injury. By reducing the ischemic period,
Handy Cure S’ reduces the disease duration and accompanying pain.

Handy Cure S’ speeds up recovery and relief when used alone or together
with other medical therapeutic modalities. It reduces the need for
analgesic and anti-inflammatory medication. Treatment with Handy Cure
S’ accelerates inflamed tissue recovery, generates cells renewal and
improves micro-circulation 

• Non-invasive treatment
• Safe to use
• Painless
• Easy to use
• No side effects
• Compact

Handy Cure s’ – General Information

Innovative therapy in your own hands
HANDY CURE – A pain relief and treatment device which combines four energy sources, each is known for its therapeutic effect – pulse (LLLT) laser radiation, pulsating infrared radiation, pulse visible red light and static magnetic field, into one single device gives synergistic therapeutic effect and the recovery is achieved rapidly.

A user-friendly operating concept makes it possible that even novice users will be able to carry out effective and targeted treatment. Thanks to its unique mode of operation, HandyCure combines immediate action with long-lasting effects.

Thanks to its unique mode of operation, HandyCure combines immediate action with long-lasting effects.

HANDY CURE is a non-invasive device for pain relief and wound care, which can be used in clinical settings and for home-care treatments.

Typical pain-producing conditions which are treated by Handy-Cure include:

• Spinal diseases
• Osteochondrosis
• Fibromyalgia
• Scoliosis
• Intervertebral disk hernia
• Post-traumatic pain
• Carriage disorders
• Radiculitis
• Ischialgia
• Joint diseases such as: osteo/arthritis, synovitis, lupus, gout,
• Arthritis
• Arthrosis
• Coxarthrosis
• Contractures
• Myositis
• Muscle and ligament strains

Use of Handy-Cure increases the speed, quality and strength of cell tissue repair, increases blood supply to the affected area, stimulates the immune system, stimulates nerve function, develops collagen and muscle tissue, helps generate new healthy cells and tissue and promotes faster wound healing and clot formation . This method can even provide significant results for people suffering from long term illnesses or cell damage, even in cases that were previously considered to be hopeless.

Handy Cure s' Laser background
Handy Cure s' is a Pulsed Low Level Laser (red and infrared) with benefits of static magnetic field.

LLLT (Low Level Laser Therapy) is a proven, well documented and established therapeutic modality with wide range of health related applications from pain relief and reduction of inflammation to wound healing as well as tissue renewal and skin regeneration. Low level laser therapy utilises biostimulating power of visible and invisible light to enhance cellular processes, stimulate cellular metabolism and increase levels of available cellular energy and cellular renewal. Increased cellular energy normalises the ailing tissues, thus triggering body’s own natural healing processes and elevating levels of endogenous endorphins for natural pain relief.

Magnetic Field Therapy, in its own right, has applications in the management of painful musculoskeletal problems, because of its rehabilitative, regenerative, analgesic and relaxing effects. Magnetic field therapy is frequently used to calm arthritic problems, muscle contractures, tendonitis and swelling.

Handy Cure s' Pulsed Laser is particularly effective in inflammatory conditions presenting with compromised micro-circulation and impaired supply of oxygen to cells and tissues. Poor circulation frequently leads to ischaemic tissue injuries. Handy Cure s' Laser enhances blood flow in the treated areas and shortens the duration of ischaemic episodes, reducing associated pain and discomfort.Conditions that can be treated with the Handy Cure s' Pulsed Laser (LLLT) include the following painful problems: osteochondrosis, radiculitis (i.e. sciatica, ischialgia), scoliosis, pain associated with herniated disk, post-traumatic pain, post-surgical pain, arthritis, coxarthrosis, contractures, myositis, muscle and ligament strains, ligament or tendon injuries (i.e. Tennis Elbow, Golfer’s Elbow, Achilles Tendon), wrist and carpal injuries (i.e. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome), muscle and tendon pain, knee pain and injuries, shoulder pain and injuries, migraines and headaches, ankle and foot pain and injures and other painful musculoskeletal problems.

Using Handy Cure s' Laser
Handy Cure's is compact and easy to use. It is a hand held device with integral rechargeable lithium battery.

Prior to first use, ensure that the battery is fully charged – a green battery indicator light on the face of the hand set indicated charged battery, whilst a red light indicates the need to charge. A black 5V charger fitted with 3 pin UK plug is provided with the Handy Cure s' device. One full charge enables several hours of operation. After charging, the hand set should be disconnected from the charger lead and the charger from the mains power plug and stored safety till next use.
To minimise your chances of looking into the laser beam, protect your eyes with the safety glasses provided with the device.
Holding the device in your hand, place the emitting surface of the laser over the palm of your other hand.
Press the Start/Stop button. The Handy Cure s' will run a self-test – indicated by 3 blinking lights. Please note that the Handy Cure s' is programmed to run a self-test every 24 hours.
After the self-test, the Handy Cure s' is ready for use – this is indicated by 2 green lights on the face of the hand set – these are marked as Treatment and Variable.
Press the Mode button to select a treatment program – as indicated in the User Manual. You can select from Variable for Initial Treatment – 5 minutes, 50 Hz for Acute Pain – 5 minutes and 5 Hz for Chronic Pain – 5 minutes. Please note that the 3 Modes/ Programs have been pre-set with different pulse frequencies to treat different pain conditions.
Select program as appropriate by pressing the Mode button – the Initial Treatment program allows your body to accustom itself with laser therapy – perform at least 2 treatments using this program; the Acute Pain program is best for acute condition (i.e. ankle sprains and strains); the Chronic Pain program is most effective in the treatment of chronic condition (i.e. arthritic joint pain).
Press the Start/Stop button to begin the treatment – the Treatment light begins to blink indicating the treatment in progress. Hold the device over the area treated for the duration of the treatment. For best outcomes, you should apply the laser over bare skin, hovering the over the painful area. However, if required, the treatment can be also applied over clothing, bandage or wound dressing. Please note that you can stop the treatment at any time by pressing the Start/Stop button.
After completion of the treatment duration (i.e. 5 minutes per area), the treatment light ceases to blink and a short audio beep sounds, indicating the treatment has ended. Turn the Handy Cure s' off by pressing the Start/Stop button for 3 seconds.
Please note that if you do not turn the Handy Cure s' off, the device begins to beep and 4 lights start to blink. Please turn the device off.

If you wish to use the Handy Cure s' immediately again, press the Start/Stop button to repeat the process.

The Treatment Guide Table in the User Manual suggests best treatment programs, number of treatments per area per day and therapy duration in weeks for named conditions. Simply follow this guidance. If your painful condition or injury is not mentioned in the guide, perform 2 treatments per area per day for 2 weeks or longer using the Variable program.
