Our Research
Our renowned research has been conducted in collaboration with researchers at universities in Canada and Australia, such as the University of Victoria, University of Newcastle, University of Calgary and McGill University.
KKT® has worked with some of the biggest spine and research institutions from around the globe. Our dedicated team consists of a core group of professionals committed to pioneering, developing and disseminating our scientific and medical advancements worldwide. By working closely with our university affiliates and attracting the industry's best researchers, we are on the verge of making even greater breakthroughs in the near future and setting even higher benchmarks for our industry.
KKT® has ushered in a new era in spinal treatment with the development of their KKT® device, which delivers low amplitude, high frequency waves to the neck and back. These waves, called "Quantum Acoustic Waves™", significantly reduce back and neck pain and stimulate biosynthesis of components essential to disc health.
Over the past 2 decades, KKT® has stood resolute and to this day have not wavered on the commitment to patient safety and patient result.
KKT® has spent decades to learn how the human body operates and unlocked secrets of the body’s beneficial frequencies to heal and repair. In all cases KKT® has met or exceeded all regulatory body requirements in an effort to ensure that you get the very best and safest of care. KKT has been cleared for use by the FDA, China FDA, Health Canada, European Commission and the International Organization for Standardization among others.

KKT® Qatar Medical Board
Our team of scientists, university reserchers, and collaborators can honestly say that KKT® offers the most technologically-advanced and effective solution to suffers of spinal problems and years of pain and discomfort.
We see highly developed technology as a starting point...not a finish line. We will continue to invest in research and funding to advance our cause to make KKT® the preferred choice of back pain sufferers worldwide.
The scientific community has agreed that "Quantum Acoustic Waves™” provide a highly effective treatment for patients suffering from conditions of the neck and back. Our revolutionary technology is being applied to a wide variety of chronic conditions, such as herniated discs, spinal degeneration, nerve damage, headaches, sciatica, scoliosis, osteoarthritis, whiplash, spondylitis, muscle strains and rotator cuff (shoulder) damage. Ailments treated by KKT view our research journals below.
Research Papers
Brief over view
The results of research studies conducted in collaboration with the University of Calgary show that the Quantum Acoustic Waves™ (the same waves that are generated by the KKT® device) encourages biosynthesis of disc components important to spinal health. This finding has been confirmed by Drs. Jie Liu and Mehran Kasra, who used treatment conditions similar to the KKT®. KKT® treatment also results in a decrease in pain in patients suffering from disc degeneration, suggesting that the treatment may involve biosynthesis of these disc components in patients.
International research groups such as those of Drs. Nikolai Bogduk and Lourens Penning have mathematically determined the pivot point of many joints in the spine. It has been shown that these pivot points or mean axes of rotation relate to spine pathologies causing chronic pain. The KKT® research team has shown that KKT® reduces pain and corrects mean abnormal axes of rotation in many patients suffering from abnormal mean axes of rotation. In a separate study of back and neck pain, the KKT® treatment was shown to reduce pain leading to a decrease in the use of pain relief medication in patients suffering from a broad range of neck and back conditions.
