How Accel-Heal helps your wound heal

What the Science Shows

Accel-Heal uses Electrical Stimulation Therapy (EST) to help your body heal. In wounds that have been slow to heal, EST can boost your skin’s natural healing process and help get your recovery moving.

Electrical Stimulation Therapy (EST) is a well-researched treatment that helps the body’s natural healing process. Over 35 high-quality studies, including randomised controlled trials, show that EST can make a real difference in healing stubborn wounds.

Evidence also shows that EST can help relieve wound-related pain, making patients more comfortable and improving their overall quality of life.

Why wounds can be difficult to heal

  • When your skin is injured, your body triggers a complex, natural healing process involving stopping bleeding, fighting infection, and building new tissue. A key but lesser-known part of this process is the “current of injury” — a tiny electrical signal generated by your skin.

  • This gentle electrical current acts as your body’s built-in healing conductor , guiding cells to the wound site to grow and repair damaged skin. It’s an invisible natural energy essential for wounds to close and heal.

  • In many people especially older adults or those with underlying health conditions, this current diminishes, slowing or stopping healing. This can cause wounds to stay open, inflamed, and painful, impacting comfort, mobility, and daily life.

your path to healing with accel-heal

Over 12 days, the Accel-Heal Solo device delivers microcurrent electrical stimulation—a gentle, subsensory signal—to help “recharge” your body’s natural healing system.
