Rehabilitation Center China
A rehabilitation center in China where burn wound patients are treated, recently tested EmuCare. The rehabilitation center has tested EmuCare on a patient with 2 equally burn wounds on both arms as a result of a gas explosion. The usual treatment for such patients is a combination of pressure garments in combination with massage therapy whereby the scars are daily massaged with hydrating creams.
The treatment started 3 months after the patient had suffered the burn wounds. During 1 month the left arm was treated with EmuCare, whereby the right arm was treated with the traditional cream.
