At 6 weeks after my #hipreplacement surgery, I was gifted a #VPULSE system – a device that continuously delivers compression and cold therapy through anatomically designed pads with an aim of reducing pain and inflammation.

At the time when I was still relying on regular pain medication, this targeted therapy helped take my mind off the surgical site discomfort. It helped a lot. Ten months later, I am packing up my VPULSE device and sending it onto a new home – to a fellow future “hippy” Jane Weller, who is about to take her very first steps on a hip replacement journey!

The period before the surgery is always an anxious time, when over-thinking prevails. Jane Weller, I hope that this fantastic little adjunctive therapy device will make your experience a little bit less uncomfortable and give you some relief after (what for me was) a life changing operation!

I call upon fellow “hippies” to give you the extra reinforcement and support, just like they did for me! Because when you’re going through a massive life milestone, you need to have your tribe behind you!
