Axon Therapy
Axon Therapy for Chronic Pain
This revolutionary, non-invasive treatment, for post-traumatic peripheral chronic nerve pain and Diabetic Neuropathy, is now available at ActiveMed Integrative Health Center in Encinitas.
The therapy is comprised of non-invasive gentle magnetic pulses, which penetrate skin and muscle to modulate nerves in the area of pain, turning on the bodies natural pain relieving pathways to provide extended relief.
How Does Axon Therapy Work?
Low frequency magnetic stimulations have been shown to alleviate symptoms associated with nerve injury related pain. Without touching the skin, the device uses a new non-invasive technology to produce small electrical stimulations in the specific region of your nerve injury
What Conditions Does Axon Therapy Treat?
Peripheral traumatic nerve injury with a history of associated pain for more than 3 months and Diabetic Neuropathy.

Early clinical evidence from a randomized trial indicates that Axon therapy can reduce chronic nerve pain by more than 44.9% in patients that are refractory to medications. Successive monthly maintenance treatments have shown to further decrease pain relief back to initial levels. As a non-invasive therapy, Axon may lack some of the side-effects associated with current treatment options for chronic nerve pain.
How many treatments does it take for axon therapy to provide me with relief?
It depends on the nature of your chronic pain. For some it just takes one treatment but for others it takes several more. It also depends how long you have had the problem. Although, many people who have had extreme pain diseases for many years have received relief within just a few treatments.
Does Axon Therapy have side effects?
Potential side effects of the magnetic treatment are mild soreness or numbness, resulting from muscle stimulation. Occasionally, skin irritation, like redness and/or pain can occur. This will be assessed by a qualified physician and treated with ointment
Does Axon Therapy Hurt?
No. Some patients describe the small electrical stimulations feeling like the gentle snapping of a rubber band.
How Long Does Axon Therapy Take?
