Accel-Heal® relieves pain1,2 and stimulates healing1–6 by delivering a preset, automated programme of subsensory electrical pulses to the wound during a 12-day treatment course.
A single-use, portable, easy-to-use device, Accel-Heal® is ideal for independent use by the patient in their own home together with their standard therapy.
It is clinically proven to promote and stimulate healing1–6 and improve patient quality of life1,5,7,8.
Electrical stimulation is one of the most evidence-based technologies in wound management and is proven to be effective in accelerating healing in multiple wound types and reducing wound pain. It is safe to use and has minimal side effects.
Accel-Heal is an easy-to-use electrical stimulation device for hard-to-heal wounds which relieves pain and stimulates healing. A small, portable device, Accel-Heal provides advanced therapy in a simple way that can be managed by patients or carers at home.
"I’ve had this wound for a couple of years now. After using Accel-Heal I’m virtually back to normal again from what I was before…
It’s doing something. You can’t feel it, but you can see the results from it.”
