Patients and methods: Two subjects, a 54-year-old male with a tear bruise on the upper third of the leg and a 19-year-old female with a stab wound to the hand, were treated with 12 REAC-TO treatment sessions. Results: In both patients, the wounds showed shorter healing time compared with the time usually required for similar wounds, and good repair quality.
