...with a non-invasive therapeutic intervention to relieve pain

RelēF™ Technology is utilized in a unique non-invasive therapeutic intervention to relieve pain originating from musculoskeletal conditions. This innovative approach equips physicians with a truly effective non-invasive option, preserving invasive measures for recalcitrant cases.

RelēF Technology initiates the body's own wound healing response by generating energy fields in deep tissues. At the same time, the top layers of the skin are cooled and protected.

Alpha Orthopaedics is an EN ISO 13485 and CAN/CSA ISO 13485 certified US-based company, founded in 2004.
