Developed by Gladiator Therapeutics in Whitehall, PA, the cFIR devices are products of patented mineral-based ceramics. Ongoing research is exploring applications in various medical conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, traumatic head injury and heart failure. The devices have proven therapeutic benefits for muscle and nerve regeneration, bone repair, tissue revascularization and collagen and cartilage production.
Benefits:
- Stimulates healing and angiogenesis at the cellular level
- Contributes to the healing of minor ruptures, potentially eliminating the need for surgery
- Provides an active healing solution that complements other treatments
- Reduces the need for painkillers or injections
- Increases blood flow for optimal tissue perfusion
- Supports more productive physical rehabilitation with reduced inflammation
A deep dive into how it works:
Activation mechanism: The patented ceramics in Gladiator Therapeutics are activated by your own body heat. This activation leads to the emission of photons that travel through the body and generate vibrational energy. This energy in turn triggers cellular respiration and stimulates the activation of stem cells.
Patented SemiCera® ceramic transmitters: The powerful ceramic emitters at the core of Gladiator Therapeutics are made from rare minerals and metal oxides. Their unique design and composition enable them to produce clinically significant far-infrared light therapy. Remarkably, these emitters do not need electricity and eliminate the need for an electrical outlet or battery. Instead, it utilizes ambient body heat for activation.
Cellular respiration and the healing process: During cellular respiration, the body's cellular energy source receives signals indicating the need for energy in processes such as development, healing and regeneration. This triggers a biological reaction that breaks down the energy source for release and use by cells in the healing process.
Hyperacute fibronectin response: The therapy actively promotes wound healing and accelerates surgical recovery through an enhanced hyperacute fibronectin response. This response signals the horse's body to mobilize stem cells from surrounding healthy tissue and bone marrow.
Microtubular scaffolding and tissue regeneration: Following the signaling process, a scaffold of microtubules forms over the wound bed. This structure acts as pathways for cells to migrate and aggregate, forming buds that initiate the filling of the wound bed. Capillary shoots then emerge, establishing a microvascular network that supports the development of granulation tissue and ultimately completes the healing process.
The devices:
****Gladiator MD Abdomen/Back device with SemiCera technology is a therapeutic device that has proven to be beneficial for systemic wellness, tissue injury healing and surgical recovery. When used on the abdomen or back, it is particularly well suited for the following:
- Cell renewal for systemic recovery
- Wound healing
- Back pain
- Gastrointestinal conditions
The Gladiator MD Mini device is a therapeutic device that has all the benefits of other devices with SemiCera technology. It is designed for flexibility, as it can be worn anywhere on the body. Some common uses include:
- Before surgical treatment
- After surgical treatment
- Sprains and strains
- Pain reduction
****Gladiator MD Shoulder Device is a therapeutic device with SemiCera technology that has proven to be beneficial for:
- Healing of tissue injuries such as sprains and strains
- Surgical recovery after arthroscopy, rotator cuff or other shoulder surgery
- Reduction of inflammation and pain for more effective rehabilitation
Gladiator MD Ankle/Elbow device**, with SemiCera technology, is designed to be worn on the ankle to treat the foot area or elbow. It is ideal for elbow injuries or feet where circulation and healing are compromised, such as in the following cases:**
- Diabetic foot ulcers/problems
- Venous ulcers
- Surgical wounds
- Pressure damage
- Neuropathy
Gladiator MD Knee Device is a therapeutic device with SemiCera technology that has proven to be beneficial for:
- Healing of tissue injuries such as sprains and strains
- Surgical recovery after arthroscopy, ACL or other knee surgery
- Reduction of inflammation and pain for more effective rehabilitation
