Pain Management
EvoHealth tPEMF technology is FDA approved for the treatment of post-operative pain and edema. Studies have demonstrated that the Enonovo tPEMF technology is at least as effective as NSAIDs in the treatment of pain and edema.
In a 2008 study, patients treated with EvoHealth tPEMF technology experienced a decrease in pain medication by nearly 3-fold in the treated patients compared with the control group.
Chronic Pain: Financial Impact
Chronic pain poses an enormous economic burden on society both
in terms of medical care and lost productivity.
- A National Institutes of Health report in 2011 estimated the total annual incremental cost of health care due to pain in the United States at $261-$300 billion.
- The total cost to society, including indirect costs of pain due to lower economic productivity, was estimated at $560-$635 billion —greater than the cost of heart disease, cancer, or diabetes.
