PainCare Holdings’ MedX-Direct Program Selected For Deployment By Vissman Therapeutics

ORLANDO, Fla., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- PainCare Holdings, Inc. today announced that the Company has contracted with Vissman Therapeutics, a Pittsburgh-based group of physical therapy centers owned and operated by Dr. Shannon Vissman, P.T., to deploy PainCare's MedX-Direct Rehabilitation Program on-site at one of its facilities located in Canonburg, Pennsylvania.

Operating six regional facilities located throughout Western Pennsylvania, Vissman Therapeutics provides comprehensive physical therapy and orthopedic rehabilitation to over 150 patients per day, who are referred to its centers primarily by area medical practitioners. The centers provide services that help restore function, improve mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit permanent physical disabilities of patients suffering from injuries or disease. Their patients include accident victims and individuals with disabling conditions such as low back pain, arthritis, heart disease, fractures, head injuries, and cerebral palsy.

Dr. Vissman stated, "Outcome-based rehabilitation is the premise on which all treatment programs are prescribed and implemented. It has long been our experience that carefully supervised exercise regiments using specialized exercise equipment measurably enhance a patient's recovery process. We are very pleased to be partnering with PainCare to deliver state-of-the-art musculoskeletal rehabilitation using what we believe is the very best equipment on the market today. Although we will be deploying PainCare's MedX- Direct program in only one of our facilities initially, it is our intent to universally replace all existing ortho rehab equipment in each of our facilities with nothing but MedX machines."

Marketed as MedX-Direct Rehabilitation Program, PainCare is actively managing and operating programs with leading orthopedic surgeon, neuro- surgeon, physiatry and pain physician practices to provide the most advanced testing, strengthening and rehabilitation utilizing state-of-the-art MedX equipment installed on-site at each physician practice. PainCare Holdings is the exclusive North American distributor of MedX medical equipment, produced by MedX Corporation, a manufacturer of industry leading testing, strengthening and rehabilitation equipment. The MedX-Direct Rehabilitation Program is structured on a revenue sharing basis with each practice. To date, PainCare has deployed or is in the process of deploying Med-X Direct Programs throughout North America.
