A new product from BioElectronics addresses dymenorhea, the painful monthly cramps experienced by 40% of women during some time in their life. The market for drug-free relief is enormous. Current treatments such as heat pads and medications such as NSAIDs are not as effective nor as safe.
Medical clinics and health spas have used pulsed electromagnetic therapy (PEMF) for decades to alleviate pain and ease muscle cramps. The therapy worked well, but was expensive and time consuming, requiring visits to the clinic. Until now, it was out of reach to the average woman suffering through her monthly cycle. This same therapeutic relief is available in Allay, an affordable, comfortable battery operated patch that puts the therapy right over the pain.
“Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields have been very helpful in reducing discomfort from facial and body plastic surgery in my practice. Knowing the positive benefits of low frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields after invasive surgery, applying it to the problem of menstrual discomfort is a logical and no-risk extension of those potential benefits. It is easy to wear, well accepted by the patient, and has no downside. It is a non-drug anti-inflammatory therapy that is immediately reversible and affordable. Dr. Barry Eppley, Plastic Surgeon , Indianapolis, Indiana
“I have found the technology to be effective in reducing pain and swelling associated with menstruation and found it to be a viable alternative to NSAIDs in cases of moderate pain. It is of particular interest to my younger patients who are increasingly interested in non-drug based solutions. Dr. Sheena Kong, Internist, San Francisco, California
