FAQ
JAS devices are only available by prescription through a doctor or therapist. All JAS devices are provided on a rental basis, except for the Finger and Toe devices which are purchased. If you are interested in JAS therapy for your patients, please contact us directly.
No! JAS devices are degree by degree adjustable and patient controlled. For JAS therapy to be effective, it is imperative that a low-intensity, pain-free degree of stretch is maintained throughout the entire session.
JAS devices are used to restore a joint's range of motion by gently stretching soft tissues surrounding joints that have stiffened because of injury, surgery or prolonged immobilization.
JAS devices provide Static Progressive Stretch Therapy (SPS) which utilizes the force loading condition known as stress-relaxation. This is the same technique that therapists use when performing manual stretch therapy in the clinic. SPS devices apply incremental low-intensity loads to the tissues at their end range. Tissues respond to these prolonged end loads by stretching and remodeling to a new, permanent length.
No! JAS devices require three 30 minute sessions per day. The sessions are done while in a comfortably seated position, generally while watching TV, reading a book or simply relaxing.
This is not recommended. Excellent range of motion results have been achieved with the 30 minute x 3 sessions protocol. The time between sessions allows for active movement to occur in the joint in either direction. Clinical experience with JAS devices has shown that longer treatment times may lead to inflammation, with no significant additional increase in range of motion.
They are provided on a rental basis and rental fees are covered by most insurance companies including WSIB and Motor Vehicle Accident cases. Our customer service department will handle billing procedures including assistance in obtaining insurance authorization.
No. Jas devices are intended to be an adjunct to patients' home exercise and clinic-based program, to assist in making faster and steadier gains in joint range of motion. Since JAS allows effective range of motion therapy at home, the therapist has more time to address other rehab goals such as strengthening and functional re-education.
