As announced over the summer, our research department’s second review is about the impact of electrotherapy on recovery after knee surgery. By and large, this was already known, as it is, after all, the clinical evaluation for our CE IIa certification of the RSQ1. Therefore, only scientific studies from the last five years were included
Our research department has made a review of recently written scientific articles describing electrotherapy as a treatment in diabetic patients. Although there are variations in the application of electrotherapy (e.g. active vs passive), or the measured effect on blood sugar levels (short vs long term), there is certainly evidence to suggest that electrotherapy can improve

“I had so much support from the RSQ1 during the rehabilitation” Ron Vlaar is captain and one of the famous players of Premier League Club Aston Villa. He started his professional career with AZ in April 2005. After less than a year, the famous Dutch club Feyenoord signed a contract with Ron Vlaar in January 2006. Before he became the undisputed leader of Feyenoord he suffered from two severe knee injuries. Severe knee injuries | “During the rehabilitation from my second knee injury at the Sports Medical Center of the Dutch Football association, I got introduced to this kind of electrotherapy.” The RSQ1 can be applied in different stages of the rehabilitation process to optimize each seperate stage. The treatment isn’t always relaxing, as Ron Vlaar say: “Heavy and though, but I completely trusted the treatment” Strength training and his own RSQ1 | One of the most limiting parameters after and during a longterm rehabilitation process is the lack of strength as a result of the atrophy. “I experienced it as pretty cool, that after a few treatments I was able to increase the intensity to the maximum level and train with it . This gives me the feeling that I was very strong. Altogether I had so much support from the RSQ1 during the rehabilitation, that I decided to buy my own RSQ1.” Recuperation | Besides supporting the strength training program, the RSQ1 can also be applied, especially around elite sportteams and athletes, to support recuperation after physical exercise. “When I’m physically fit, I use the RSQ1 to recover from a heavy match or training.”

Molly McDowell (professional basketballplayer for the Loon Lions) "I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for something to help them with their recovery" Ankele Surgery | I am a 33 year old professional basketball player and I worked with the RSQ after a recent ankle surgery. I began my treatment the day after the surgery and continued using it even after I began playing. Rehabilitation | The treatment I received using the RSQ was on my surgically repaired ankle as well as the muscles in my legs. Because of these treatments, my return to the court was quicker and I was able to come back with no problems in my ankle and stronger muscles. I have no doubt the the RSQ contributed to my success in my return to my professional career. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for something to help them with their recovery.
The RSQ1 is part of the treatment possibilities of the Medical Staff of Ajax for already a long time, they have the availability of four devices.
Different departments | “The number of four devices is definitely necessary, because the RSQ1 is used throughout the whole club: the first team, Ajax 2, Ajax-ladies and the youth department.” The enthusiasm among the medical staff is big, but “also the players are very satisfied”. “This enthusiasm and the big amount of players in the different departments is the reason why we’re looking for possibilities to increase the amount of devices to increase the possible applications.”
Rehabilitation | “Most commonly used purpose for us, is the rehabilitation of muscle and tendon related injuries and during the rehabilitation after a surgery. Apparently, directly after the inflammation the RSQ1 is used for functional training.” In every phase of the rehabilitation process the RSQ1has an added value, “in the beginning for movement and pain control, but in a later stadium it can really increase strength and push out the boundaries.”
Usability | “Besides the results, also the usability is very easy!”. However it’s necessary to follow a training course and become certified as “Official RSQ1 therapist” the usability is very easy. “With a good instructions, players are able to take it home. The possibility to ‘treat’ players at home will increase the rehabilitation even more.”
