Letters From Our Customers:

I came across your site online while trying to research how to deal with my badly strained achilles tendon. I ordered your portable ultrasound and 10 bottles of your ultrasound gel.

I am thrilled with the results so far. The ultrasound wand is easy to use; the booklet was very informative and very professionally done. The gel is wonderfully soothing and the healing nature of its scent is a draw all by itself.

I have been using it for about two weeks now and the swelling in my tendon is greatly reduced and the redness is totally gone. I had been getting ultrasound treatments from my chiropractor, but only every other week as the cost was prohibitive. Even he thought it was a great move on my part to supplement it with the MendMeShop product. As I am a cautious consumer, I had called your customer service department before I ordered, with questions. Amazingly, a person answered immediately. She was very knowledgeable and totally helpful.

I am thrilled to have connected with MendMeShop and am very confident that your products will be an integral part of my healing!

I wanted to send this note to let potential users of the ultrasound device know that it has worked really well for me.

With achillis injuries on both heels, I have had to use it a lot. My pain level before was a 9 out of 10 and I could barely walk. After using the device as suggested by MendMeShop, my pain level is down to a 2.

I had suffered from an acute form of achilles tendonitis for around 8 months. The pain caused me a lot of grief over that time. I have been using the MendMeShop ultrasound unit for 2 months now and I am pretty well pain free now. In fact, my pain is basically gone.

I use it regularly and before I exercise. After finishing exercise, I use the ankle wrap I bought from you guys and then I use the ultrasound after that.

In addition, my wife was recently suffering from hip pain and wondered what she could do about it. The manual stated the ultrasound could be used over the area, so we applied a few treatments. She responded very positively, her pain practically disappeared.

I am a RNA (12 years now) who suffered a neck / shoulder strain injury about 6 months ago. Much of my work involves heavy lifting of patients that are unable to assist themselves, and I can attest that eventually the strain catches up with you. I was advised by one of our doctors to visit MendMeShop.com and I am thrilled to say that this company really wanted to help! I've never order online before, so I called the customer service line and order the ultrasound unit with extra gel. After about 1 week of my husband treating my shoulder and back, I found that I am finally getting a good night sleep and I'm no longer worried that I'll have to take a medical leave. I want to thank you for not only helping me, but also giving me the ability to continue my career.

I have fibromyalgia and have tried everything, so I was skeptical when my chiropractor recommended that I try the Ultrasound unit available at MendMeshop. But after 3 days of treatment on my lower back, I noticed a difference - I wasn't as stiff and I could walker further than I have been able to in years! I now treat my back once per day and have started working on my neck too. My kids have even mentioned that I'm smiling more now!

I recieved the product before the expected shipment date with a complemetry bottle of gel. I even recieved a follow-up email asking if i needed any suggestions on treatment for my injury. Very professional, best Amazon experience I've had to date. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Achilles Tendonitis Facts:

There are over 250,000 achilles tendon injuries each year in the US
Half of all achilles tendon injuries heal themselves in about 1 month with just rest
One quarter of achilles tendon injuries involve professional medical intervention
Oral Medications can mask the pain but do not aid in the healing of achilles tendonitis. Anti-inflammatories and pain killers can cause achilles tendonitis to worsen
Ice and compression are the easiest and most effective treatments for achilles tendonitis
Ultrasound can speed achilles tendonitis recovery significantly
A fully ruptured tendon REQUIRES surgery. It will not heal on its own
Except for a fully ruptured tendon, achilles tendonitis can almost always be cured without surgery.
Left untreated, achilles tendonitis can be extremely debilitating and lead to life long complications.
Achilles tendonitis and achilles tendinitis are the same thing
Contintually using your achilles tendon while it is injured will lead to a worse injury
Your achilles tendon attaches your calf muscle to your heel bone
To heal as fast as possible:
  • Rest
  • Use a compression ice wrap
  • Get ultrasound treatments
  • Avoid pain killers
