What is the ReBuilder?
The ReBuilder is a proven and doctor recommended, electronic pain treatment. The ReBuilder is fully registered with the FDA for the treatment of neuropathic symptoms. It is covered by private insurance companies such as Empire Life, Sun Life, and Desjardins, with more joining the list daily. The ReBuilder is specifically designed for the pain related to Peripheral neuropathy of any etiology, such as diabetic, idiopathic, alcoholic, inherited, and the pain of chemotherapy induced neuropathy. The ReBuilder is designed to be used in the privacy of your own home.
It consists of a small, hand held, battery powered stimulator that sends a comfortable electronic pulse to your feet and legs (or hands and arms) that can restore full nerve function. You can think of it like a heart pacemaker that restores and improves heart function: the ReBuilder restores, stabilizes, and rebuilds the nerves in your hands and feet.

Before each impulse is sent, the ReBuilder analyzes the waveform of your nerves, determines any abnormalities, creates the unique waveform of the healing signal necessary, administers that signal to both feet simultaneously, and then re-evaluates the result. This process happens 7.83 times every second. Each successive signal is constantly being adjusted to conform to what your nerves need in real time. The ReBuilder is powered by a common 9 volt battery and is microprocessor controlled.
The ReBuilder is not a common TENS device that is designed to temporarily block nerve signals; the ReBuilder is a unique form of TENS and restores (opens) nerve pathways so that your nerves function properly. Relief is usually felt with the very first treatment.
To use it, you simply sit in your easy chair, put on the conductive socks, and turn on the ReBuilder for a soothing 30 minute treatment. Your ReBuilder automatically shuts itself off at the end of the treatment session (just in case you fall asleep).
The ReBuilder works for your feet and legs, hands and arms... it even can be used to relieve pain in your lower back or the numbness associated with the sciatic nerve (sciatica). Sometimes this condition can be referred to as piriformis entrapment syndrome.
Your ReBuilder can also treat the painful symptoms of arthritis, MS, and many other forms of chronic pain, including post-surgical pain. Your ReBuilder can also stop the pain and numbness of sciatica. The sciatic nerve can become pinched within overworked muscles and the ReBuilder can quickly eliminate those symptoms as well.
The ReBuilder is used in Cancer treatment Centers all over the world to eliminate the neuropathy symptoms that develop of the result of chemotherapy. If the ReBuilder can stop and reverse pain from chemo-induced neuropathy, it can surely help you.

The difference between the ReBuilder and a TENS device
The ReBuilder is not a "common" TENS device. The ReBuilder is specifically designed to treat the painful symptoms of neuropathy and sciatica. Neuropathic and sciatic pain is diffuse, usually affecting the entire lower half of the body, ly the feet and legs. Sometimes Peripheral neuropathy can also affect your hands, and arms. Because of this diffuse, bilateral nature of neuropathy and nerve pain in general, the area to be treated is too large to be treated with a common TENS. In addition, a common TENS, whether it is microcurrent or not, blocks nerve transmissions, while the ReBuilder does the exact opposite...it opens and conditions the nerves and the nerve paths.
It can be very dangerous to use a common TENS device in the way the ReBuilder is used. This is because a common TENS device is designed to be used with the conductive skin electrodes placed close together, normally about 4 to 6 inches apart. If you were to place the pads farther apart, such as one pad on one foot and the other on the other foot like the ReBuilder does, the common TENS will unsafely continue to put out more and more current until it either burns itself out or it burns out your nerves. It can over stimulate your nerves and cause them to go into fibrillation, (like in a heart attack), causing permanent damage.
The ReBuilder has special bio feedback circuits built in that not only isolate the power source from the patient, but can automatically adjust and limit the output power for the patient's safety.
The ReBuilder is different from other common TENS devices in that it analyzes in real time, the waveform that the nerves are responding with, and then creates a specific waveform to gently nudge the dysfunctional nerves back to full function. We have discovered in our research here in our own lab, that nerves communicate with each other like an FM radio. In an FM radio, each station is looking for a specific frequency and waveform as a 'carrier". Then the data sent from the radio station is translated to music or voice. Similarly, your nerves expect to communicate with each other, your brain, and your muscles with specific frequencies and waveforms. The ReBuilder reads all this data from your nerves, determines the various deficiencies, creates a custom output signal, and does it all in real time, and it does this 7.83 times per second to give your nerves a chance to re-polarize and not become overloaded or go into fibrillation.
While most TENS use a simple square wave, and others use a dampened sinosoidal waveform, neither of these outputs speak the special of nerves, therefore they only serve to, in effect, shout to the nerves. The ReBuilder whispers.
The ReBuilder was originally cleared by the FDA in 1987 and has been under going constant improvements ever since then. It was approved for Medicare and Insurance coverage in 2005. One such improvement was the addition of special circuitry to enable the ReBuilder to administer its healing signals via special, silver laced electrically conductive socks and gloves. These gloves are manufactured by us to match the impedance and other electrical parameters of the ReBuilder to provide a safe, effective treatment system for the pain associated with diabetic Peripheral neuropathy, sciatica, Peripheral vascular disease and Peripheral artery disease.
Special safety alert: There is only one ReBuilder, and you should be careful not to accept any substitutes such as a regular TENS or cheap, imported, socks or gloves.
A regular TENS is designed to be used with the electrodes placed about 4 to 6 inches apart. When the electrodes are placed one on each foot or hand, the amount of tissue between the electrodes is about 300 times greater, which means that the electrical resistance is 300 times greater. A regular TENS has to overcome this higher resistance, and can overload itself. Regular TENS do not have circuits to "blow a safety fuse" so they keep right on pumping out more and more current, and this can cause permanent, even fatal damage to your nerves. Regular TENS devices can be very dangerous. Always demand "Brand Specific: ReBuilder Model 300 or Model 2407."
Do not accept any conductive garment that does not have a permanent sewn-in label indicating that it is the authentic ReBuilder Brand Specific Conductive Garment. Cheap imitations are likely manufactured in China, and besides having a lesser manufacturing quality relative to the sewing, we have found many samples to be contaminated with chemicals just like the contamination found in Chinese drywall and Chinese toys. When contaminated, the electrical impulses can cause a transdermal (across the skin) migration of lead, asbestos, cadmium, etc. into the skin of your feet and can cause permanent damage that is not immediately noticeable, but cannot be reversed. You can cause permanent damage to the nerves in your feet or hands if you use cheap imitation gloves or socks.
Our socks are manufactured here in the US by us, in our own manufacturing facility. The material first undergoes a rigorous QC process, then washed, then special conductive minerals are infused into the material to standardize the conductivity and make the garments sustain repeated washings and to properly and safely carry the unique ReBuilder impulse to your nerves.
Always demand the original, Brand Specific, ReBuilder products.
How does the ReBuilder work?
The ReBuilder uses special electrically conductive socks or gloves (threaded with pure silver strands) or conductive adhesive pads, or twin compartment footbath (your preference) to deliver the healing impulses at the rate of 7.83 signals per second. This specific rate is particularly comforting to nerve cells because it gives each cell sufficient time to repolarize between impulses.
While sitting in your chair or in bed, this soothing signal travels from one foot, up the leg, across the nerve roots in the lower back, then down the other leg to the other foot. This occurs because one sock is electrically positive while the other sock is simultaneously electrically negative, this ensures the signal travels from one foot to the other and effectively treats all the nerves in the lower half of the body at the same time.
The ReBuilder's microprocessor then measures several electrical aspects of your nerves and muscles and automatically adjusts itself to your specific situation and therapeutic needs. The tingling impulses then reverse direction and goes from one foot all the way back to the other foot. In this way, all the nerves from the lumbar area down to your toes are treated.
This back and forth action acts to "wake up" dormant nerves so they function normally again, and re-educates the nerve pathways so you don't get those "short circuits" of shooting pains. It also strengthens weakened leg muscles to help you walk more securely, confidently, and safely.
One portion of the ReBuilder's signal resets the nerve's set points, thus restoring natural sensations and canceling tingling and numbness. Please read on below for a more technical physiological explanation of the physiologic basis of the ReBuilder.
Another unique benefit of the ReBuilder is that it stimulates the brain to release endorphins (pain relievers manufactured by your own body with no side effects) that travel throughout your entire body via the blood stream, helping you to relax and assisting you to fall asleep, and rest all night without medications. These endorphins can also help relieve the pain of arthritis, etc.
