Novasonic SK2 Sonic Massager is a precision-made, electric, therapeutic massager. The output of intra-sound (audible sound waves) offers a natural treatment that assists nature in the healing process. This is deep tissue therapy that increases circulation and induces healing. However, Novasonic is not the typical feel good massager. PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT the typical soothing feel of vibration. The benefit is clinically significant healing below the surface. Please note that we are offering the hard to find SK2 model and not the model known as "NOVA" or SK1 that is sold at less cost by others.
SOUND WAVE AND INTRASOUND TECHNOLOGY
Frequency Range: Novasonic produces intrasonic percussion waves which are between 100 Hz and 10,000 Hz. Its mixed-frequency sound waves penetrate up to 2 1/4 inches into the body tissue, increasing circulation in a very pleasant and comfortable way. Not only after a workout or visit to the gym, it can speed the dissipation of aches and pains without the use of drugs. Intensity and vibration can be adjusted as needed. The optional percussion feature increases depth of penetration over models without such. It helps by reviving and supporting the self-healing power of the body though gentle, improvement of tissue nutrition at a cellular level.
Healing Physiology: utilizing sound wave technology combined with optional mild percussion, the amazing NOVASONIC MASSAGER manipulates the tissues by exerting cell vibration and wavelike movement of fluid. This forms alternating compression and rarefaction zones. The waves emanating from the treatment elements (plate or ball) are synonymous with the natural vibration frequency of normal cell membranes.
During the compression phase the tissue cells drain some fluid, i.e. waste products and toxins. During the expansion mode a vacuum is created in the cell: fresh nutrients are drawn into the cells. These fresh nutrients provide the basic raw materials for therapeutic healing and repair. In addition, hormones activated during this process continue to improve blood flow for many hours after the application.
PROFESSIONAL AND HOME USE
The Novasonic SK2 is the upgraded all metal professional version with percussion therapy onboard. DO NOT confuse with other models sold for $159.00 that are plastic and without the percussion feature.. These appliances have been developed both for professional and home use and are lightweight, easy to handle and can be used through thin clothing. Formerly known as the NOSTRAFON, this massager was the original sonic massager used in Europe for foot and hand reflex zone therapy and accupressure.
The NOVASONIC comes with a sonic plate and sonic ball head attachment. Whenever you are treating a smooth part of the body that is easy to stroke, use the sonic plate. It should always rest flat on the skin. Use the sonic ball to reach poorly accessible parts of the body, such as between the fingers, toes and ribs, in the arm pit or behind the ear.
THERAPEUTIC GUIDELINES AND RESTRICTIONS:
The instrument should not be used by patients with skin diseases, on weeping eczema, for inflammation of the joints or on body parts accompanied by fever/infection. Treatment in the area of thrombophlebitis is contra-indicated. Do not utilize over the abdomen during pregnancy When chronic complaints are treated, it may be assumed that these will revert to acute states, so that the body's natural restorative powers can be activated. The result is an initial worsening of the complaints. Experts agree, however, that once the regenerative powers of the body are awakened, continuation of treatment will lead to success. Pain can sometimes be an alarm signal for more serious underlying disease. If results are not achieved within 7 days of use, medical attention should be sought.
THERAPEUTIC USES FOR INTRASOUND
The use of the Novasonic Sonic Massager has been utilized successfully by top European physical therapy clinics.

Achilles tendon complaints

As with all physical therapy, it is of utmost importance when using the Novasonic that you never treat inflammed joints directly. The following can also benefit from therapeutic intrasound:
BEWARE OTHER INTERNET VENDORS: Please be cautious of other retailers offering a version of the Novasonic massager that is not the percussive professional model. They are sold at a price of approximately $154.95 and are NOT the PROFESSIONAL CHROME SK2 model that we offer. They do not have the same features. Some are using the picture of the chrome model, but will instead send you the white plastic, non-professional unit instead.
Novafon's SK2 Intrasound Massager is NOT A FEEL GOOD MASSAGER. Now known by the name Novasonic, it produces deep, clinically significant intrasound waves, functioning to increase nutrients and healing of tissue at a cellular level. Although the therapy is often accompanied by a pleasant sensation, those expecting the soothing-like feeling of massage, may be dis-appointed.
