RESULTS OF TREATMENT
Dr. Darr will be monitoring the outcomes of your treatment through a variety of means. We ask that you assist us in this process, by keeping notes over the course of your 11 days of treatment. Please feel free to utilize the record provided for this purpose and bring this with you on each day of your treatment, as it will help you in providing information to the clinical team during your treatment visits. Additionally, as Dr. Darr is committed to the advancement of clinical research related to integrative orthopedic medicine (Orthobiologics), he is conducting research related to ARPWave therapy and offering this opportunity to his patients
For more information about ARPWave, and or other integrative orthopedic treatment options, or to schedule an appointment with Dr. Darr, please call 985-273-5888.
ARP Therapy will occur over the course of 1 1 days. You should plan on the following:
- Wear comfortable gym-style clothing, as your sessions will require you to move. Additionally the clinical staff will need to place the electrodes onto your body and also move the electrodes as they find areas known as “hot spots” that need to be treated.
- You will be asked to rate the intensity of the electrical stimulation throughout the process, to help assess the location of your problem areas. The process can be intense, but it is tolerable to most patients.
- Adequate rest throughout this therapy, at least 8 hours sleep each night
- Avoiding/limiting alcohol consumption. Eating healthy meals with adequate protein. Depending on your individual case, we may recommend that you increase your protein consumption during treatment.
- We will also ask you to complete a questionnaire about your symptoms and issues related to your clinical problem at the following times: 1) prior to the beginning of the therapy, 2) at the completion of the therapy and 3) again at certain follow-up visits to assist us in measuring the outcomes of your treatment. Dr. Darr and other clinical staff will also be assessing various clinical measures to evaluate your clinical response to treatment as well.
