Pilot Studies

The power compression shorts and the rare-earth semiconductors silk-screened to the shorts significantly reduce the muscle vibration and enhance the efficiency of the proprioceptors responsible for sending signals to the brain. The result is less fatigue and improved communication between the muscles, joints and tendons. The proprioceptors give the brain information about what is happening with muscles in space.

Two primary observations were made of athletes wearing Goode Wraps compared to placebo wraps. One involved a standing vertical jump and the other place kicking a football. Two motor tasks, vertical jumping and kicking, with two different athletes were investigated.

A NAC 400 High Speed Video Recording System was utilized to record ten kicks and jumps. In addition, the vertical jump was measured with a Kistler force plate. Each was tested 5 times with/and without the semiconductor imbedded wraps. The results for both were digitized utilizing an Ariel Performance Analysis System (ASPAS).

The vertical jumper wore ankle wraps, knee wraps and compression shorts. The kicker wore knee wraps.

The vertical jump results showed average jump height, vertical take-off velocity and vertical push-off impulse to be greater in the semiconductor jumps. Comparison of the best semiconductor and best control jumps revealed larger vertical impulseóresulting in larger vertical take-off velocity and jump height for the semiconductor jump. The kicking results showed that maximum ball velocity, knee joint angular velocity, and thigh and shank angular velocities at contact were larger in the semiconductor kicks.

Paired t-test, however, showed that the differences between the two conditions were not statistically significant (p greater than .05). Although no significant performance improvement was found, trends in the data suggest that external application of semiconductors may have a positive effect on motor performance. It is recommended that a larger study be undertaken to further illuminate the subject.

Trigger Points and Muscles.
Trigger points are hypersensitive areas of shortened muscle fibers, which are generally located in the middle of the muscle or at its attachments. In reality, pain in hip and knee joints can be nothing more serious than referred pain from myofascial trigger points. These trigger points shorten the overall length of the muscle and can refer pain to (make pain appear in) areas far away from the actual origin. Referred pain can be every bit as intense and debilitating as pain from a damaged joint. Healing the pain involves gently treating and stretching these trigger points. Goode Wraps provide muscles relaxation to assist in reducing the pain, stiffness and swelling associated with trigger points.

Some researchers suspect that trigger points may actually be the root cause of true osteoarthritis and other kinds of joint deterioration. This is because muscles afflicted with trigger points become shortened and stiff. When this happens, even normal movement puts undue strain on muscle attachments at the joints, which can eventually result in damage to connective tissue and distortion of the joints themselves.

Subject: not so satisfied with compression shorts Sat, 24 Aug 2002

My son received your shorts yesterday and wore them to bed last night and wore them today and wore them tonight for his first scrimmage in football, ten minutes into this he had to be taken out because he had pain. I feel like I just lost $l25.00. Debi

Subject: Brian’s story Fri, 6 Sep 2002

My son, Brian is now pain free and played a great game as middle linebacker for his varsity team. He is a junior and is counting on a div I scholarship to college. We were worried about this injury (hamstring) as you can see for a very good reason. He is going for therapy and wearing the shorts a great deal of the time, so I am happy to say he is feeling great and the 10 days you suggested was a great idea, Thanks again, Debi

Translation: The quadriceps muscle group ("quads") is made of four muscles along the front of the thigh. They all share the tendon that encloses the kneecap and attaches to the top of the shin, and they extend your lower leg. Three of them just work the knee joint, and the fourth, the one on top and in the middle of the front of your thigh, also helps raise your thigh (along with iliopsoas). Trigger points in these muscles can cause pain in your knee and all along the front and outside of your thigh as far up as your pelvis. Trigger points in quadriceps are one of the chief causes of knee pain in both children and adults.

NOTE:Drs. Travell and Simons say, "Unexplained thigh and knee pain in children, even in infants, is more frequently due to quadriceps femoris TrPs [trigger points] than is generally realized. These youngsters with thigh and knee pain should be examined for TrPs."

Letter received from an insurance company:

I am a workers’ compensation adjuster handling claims in New Jersey. I am interested in ordering a couple of your products for one of my workers’ compensation patients. In order to establish your company as a payer and issue a check, I need to have a completed Federal W9 form on file.

Note: the adjuster personally order compression shorts a month earlier.

"thank you. i just received my second pair or compression shorts. i had a problem with my upper leg for months. i finally went to my doctor who diagnosed it as a groin pull and suggested physical therapy. rather than go through that i ordered your shorts. after wearing you product for a short period of time i was able to run again without pain. i call them magic shorts. i don’t know if it’s a placebo effect or if the thing actually works. what’s more, i don’t care. my leg is almost 100% now. unbelievable."
sincerely, peter k.

"If anyone is interested, I found that compression shorts relieved both my hip and back pain. A PT that has a small clinic for rehabbing athletes recommended these. I purchased compression shorts from Goode Wraps and had them customize the shorts. They work extremely well for me."


How Can Goode Wraps Work?

The rare earth semiconductors used are the best conductors of electricity know to man. Several hypotheses have been advanced relating to the action of the semiconductors. Some thoughts are:1. The semiconductors conduct excess Electricity and Electro Magnetic Fields created by the muscles that may be causing problems.2. The semiconductors conduct the free radicals generated by muscle activity.3, The semiconductors enhance the performance of the free radical scavengers.
