Stability Bracing Post Meniscus Surgery
This week we invited Laura Asplin, our Clinical Marketing Manager, to share one of her favourite experiences since joining the JO team.
Tim is one of the patients benefitting from our portable VPULSE® Cryotherapy device post-operatively; we caught up with him to find out a bit more about his journey so far.
Tim has always been an active person, loving all sports from an early age, encouraged by his parents, and inspired by his Grandfather’s involvement in boxing; he began practising Shotokan Karate at the age of 7, continuing to grow in confidence and develop in his chosen discipline.
Tim is now a fully committed Professional MMA fighter, signing with Bellator MMA almost two years ago. Tim now trains with Team Renegade in Kings Heath, Birmingham.
Before his injury, Tim regularly used ice therapy to help aches and pains after training, so he understands the benefit of promoting healing and reducing inflammation. He tells us of the dread of previously putting his injured ankle into a bucket of ice and cold water and the awkwardness this usually poses in keeping it submerged for the optimum time and containing the ice and water.
In significant pain on returning home from the hospital, Tim tells us, ‘I couldn’t wait to get the VPULSE® on my knee; the compression along with the cold therapy provided better pain relief than the medication’. The device is quiet when in use, so he could easily sleep in the early days of his recovery while using the VPULSE®; the soft knee pad protects the skin from the pinch of the ice-cold, along with the compression the cold goes deep into the tissues.
Many thanks to Tim for taking the time to share his #myvpulsestory. Tim has an awe-inspiring outlook on life and his injury, a firm belief that injuries are an opportunity to become a bigger, stronger smarter fighter.
Joint Operations wish Tim a speedy recovery and we look forward to seeing him in the cage again soon!
