Speeding back pain relief without the meds
Speeding back pain relief without the meds
If you’re an athlete or someone who is interested in increasing back pain relief without the meds, then I have some great news for you as I explore the second post on revisiting remedies for low back pain: The sam Sport® ( (sustained acoustic medicine) is now available for you.
The right way of speeding back pain relief without the meds
If you’ve been struggling to recover from muscle injury by yourself, then you know how difficult it is to get the right treatment. Mainly you end up relying on a forum, where some Crossfit guru is giving you instructions on how to push your body even when feeling pain, or some well respected runner is advising you to dump your body into an ice bath. And it’s not until you’re halfway through the procedure when you realize you got some BAD advice!
That’s dangerous. It can land you in the hospital. And you could end up with health issues for a long time. To make things worse, you may think reaching for the pills is your only way out. However, your common sense self realizes that what it wants is speeding back pain relief without the meds.
The solution to speeding back pain without the meds
sam® is the only FDA cleared wearable-active Low Intensity Ultrasound for multi-hour treatment (up to 4-hours/day at work or home; delivering 18,700 Joules of Energy per Treatment) to accelerate healing and eliminate chronic pain of musculoskeletal injuries (without the use of prescription pain medication) and Bone Growth. It is not “therapeutic Ultrasound” which is only used for 5-10 minutes in clinic and does not accelerate healing or reduce pain (delivers <1,500 Joules of Energy per Treatment).
Is sam® covered by Worker’s Comp?
This is fair question since, as I said, we are dealing with a level II medical device. Here is the good news. sam® is covered by most insurances for Workers Comp patients due to its ability to help patients recover fast for both pain reduction and range of motion; healing most Musculoskeletal Injuries and Chronic Pain in 2-4 weeks; providing a significant cost reduction benefit to the employers and payers.
There’s more
sam® is also covered by all Insurance Carriers any injured Professional Athletes (NFL, NBA/G-League, MLB/MiLB, NHL/AHL/ECHL, MLS, NWSL, WNBA, NASCAR), injured NCAA or High School Athletes, and TriCare (Active Duty Military Personnel).
In August 2017, the Veterans Administration approved sam® Sport to be issue to any Veteran suffering from Chronic Pain to eliminate their use of Prescription Opioid-based medication. To date, over 3,000 Veterans have been treated with sam® and eliminated their use of Prescription Pain medication.
Who it can help recover from pain without the meds?
The SAM Device can help anyone who has exhausted other means of pain management and now seeks big improvements in managing their chronic pain. It aims to help injured patients recover and return to work more quickly without surgical intervention.
Used successfully by a wide range of individuals who work in labor-intensive jobs and a host of others looking to more effectively manage chronic pain. In short, it’s a wearable technology used by elite athletes, soldiers and veterans, and chronic pain sufferers.
The following is a case of a nurse who was limited in her work from a painful lower back strain.

Testimonial
“Since hurting my back at work from pulling equipment and patients, I have not been able to do household activities and I have not been able to walk long distances because it is too painful.”
Initial pain level (Scale 1 “least” – “Worst Pain Possible”). Prior to using SAM pain level was “4” and after using SAM for 1-2 days, the pain decreased to a “1”.
I was prescribed pain medication and after using the SAM I was able to “stop using pain medication”.
“Last night my back started to have muscle spasms. Instead of taking a muscle relaxant I put on the SAM unit. Right away the spasms went away, the pain decreased and I actually fell asleep with it on for 2 hours because it felt so good. The SAM long-duration, low intensity portable ultrasound device has helped me a lot with only 5 days of use. [1]
Product Features
- It uses miniaturization technology to provide ultrasonic waves that penetrate into tissue to increase blood circulation, oxygen and nutrient delivery, and it removes waste products, such as lactic acid, from the site of a musculoskeletal injury.
- Unlike traditional therapeutic ultrasound that is typically applied in short, high intensity bursts from large systems, the sam Sport® provides allows for a low intensity, and long-duration ultrasound. Current research shows this to be a better way to ensure sustainable healing.
Pros
- Sam® Sport accelerates the injury recovery process
- Provides rapid pain reduction( without Opioid based pain medication)
- Sam® Sport can be done at home
- Delivers mechanical compression
- Increases deep circulation
- Increases oxygen and nutrient delivery
- Wearable and portable
Cons:
- Not so much a con, just a cautionary note. Some people may have Pace makers or use spinal stimulators. In that case, one should not use the applicator directly on top of the pace maker or stimulator. Also, even though the treatment is covered by insurance, some people still find the price a turn off. The treatment can cause over a thousand dollars. That said, some chronic pain sufferers find the money worth it.
Conclusion
Are you suffering from back pain and spasm, frozen shoulder, hip pain, calf pain, or any other injury that has sidelined you? Well, you can get back to work or in the game faster. Just go ahead and check the Sam® Sport. In revisiting home remedies for back pain, it’s one of the most innovative treatments I have seen for speeding back pain relief without the meds.

This is very awesome. I Know alot of people at the Gym that needs to know about this. I haven’t heard about it before is it a new thing just on the market?
Hello Cynthia,
It’s great to hear from you again, and I’m so glad that you found the post useful. People have used TENs Technology and if one wanted something more effective they really had use “therapeutic Ultrasound”. The problem is that traditional Ultrasound is only used for 5-10 minutes in clinics. Thus even if it eased pain it didn’t promote healing because of its high density bursts. The Sam Sport is portable and uses low density bursts that are long in duration, and this allows muscles to recover faster without the need of medications. This is a relatively new approach in treating chronic pain and injury recovery. I think it’s great break through in the area of pain management, and that’s why I’m happy to spread the word. Thanks for checking in.
I agree that the pain applications for ultrasound are relatively early in their development and some doctors are skeptical about their merits. Hopefully as more people experience the benefits, the skepticism of some in the medical community will go away. I think that’s going to happen.
I think that it’s already starting to happen, Sam. The main reason is that a lot of coaches are using the therapy for their players and finding success. I know, for example,that the therapy has been very effective in helping injured basketball players and baseball pitchers recover and get back to playing. Thanks for checking in.
I think this is a great break through in pain management. Unfortunately some in the medical community are skeptical about any portable ultrasound therapy designed to eliminate pain. These are the same people who are hostile to alternative treatments for pain relief. Hopefully wiser heads will prevail and this promising therapy will be given a chance. As someone who has suffered sports injury I can see how this therapy can be far better than reaching for the pain pills. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I will definitely spread the word about this post. Great job.
Hi Joel,
I’m so glad you enjoyed the post. I think as the company continues to grow, word will indeed get out. This will result in the educating of the medical community, as well as the larger patient population, on the benefits of our effective drug-free pain solution like SAM. Thanks for checking in.
I love any remedy that requires no meds. And I am so happy to find out there is one for back pain. Plus, it is a speedy method too!
As we age, many of us can have chronic back pain. I am getting older, and thankfully I have no back pain or major ailment. But it is good to know. Just in case.
Also, good to know because I have my Mom who is elderly. She has not shown signs of back pain. But with this article, I am prepared.
Would you happen to know if this is available in Asia?
Hi Tim,
Chronic back pain can happen to any of us at any time. You’re right that we should be prepared just in case it’s our turn. According to its maker, Sam Sport is available by prescription in the US and cleared for over-the-counter sale in Europe, Canada, and Asia. So it will be available for you should the need arise. Thanks for checking in and I send well wishes to your mom.
