Injuries are commonplace in rugby, especially in those players who compete at international level. In the run-up to the Olympics held in Tokyo in July 2021, South African Blitzbok Impi Visser experienced an injury that could have cost him the Olympics, but thanks to Photizo’s amazing healing benefits this was luckily not the case. 🏉

“In the five weeks leading up to the Olympics we had some preparation matches and in one of the matches I fractured my left wrist. I knew a fracture takes about six weeks to fully recover and with only about four weeks to go until the team left for the Olympics, I realised I needed to accelerate the healing process of my fracture if I wanted to give myself a good opportunity to make the team and also compete at my best.

I noticed after two weeks that the pain had reduced when doing daily tasks around the house (which previously caused me a lot of pain). After two weeks I eased the treatment to about once a day until we left for the Olympics. After about four weeks my pain had almost completely disappeared and I could really get going in the gym, especially with weight pushing exercises. 💪

This is incredible, given the fact that I struggled to do any type of push exercise for the first few weeks after the injury, due to the pain,” he explains. “I truly believe that the Photizo Sport device has made a massive difference in my quick recovery time. Although you can’t physically ‘feel’ any improvements while doing the treatment, trust me that it does work over a period of time and your healing will be accelerated.

“For me to be recovered in four weeks’ time instead of six weeks made the difference in me being fit for selection and it made my Olympic dream a reality" 🤩
