‼️Just a reminder + random thoughts ‼️
The unit we train with is the same technology as a Tens unit.
I just felt like sharing because over the last month I've been nursing a pretty interruptive injury on my entire foot.
At my whits end, having tried almost everything with very slow progress, I found myself doing this with my boarders ecollar 🫣 let me just say I am NOT an expert- I simply heard from a few other trainers that they have used their dog's ecollars to help knee, back, and other pain issues....
I then thought back to my chiropractor/acupuncturist and put two and two together.
After just 2 days using the ecollar I couldn't believe the amount of relief I got and the reduction in swelling and numbness...
Then someone told me I should do it properly, and get a unit meant for this type of therapy 😂 so I did!
Let me just say, I highly recommend for acute or chronic pain! I am not recommending you all go use your dogs ecollars! But I AM reminding you that these "shock" collars that some people may perceive, are not the quality units that we have access to today.
I was able to adjust the stimulation level on the ecollar to match my tolerance, blood pressure level, and sensitivity, WHICH BY THE WAY changes upon each day! Day 1 I was using a 23 to a 26 on the remote, day 2 I was using a 12 to an 18.
Just like our dogs, you adjust as per the situation, arousal level, and if you are teaching or removing a behaviour.
All the more reason, of course, you should always consult a professional, or someone with experience in these tools.
Just a friendly reminder...humans use these every day, pay for these professional treatment therapies. They're 100% safe & humane when used properly- on ourselves or our dogs!
Don't listen to everything you hear-many are just uneducated or stuck in their ideologies. Keep an open mind, it may surprise you ✨️
Just ask anyone who has ecollar trained their dog, you'll get a consistent answer 😉 (hint: "game changer" or "life changing")
