What's Happening?
AVACEN Medical has announced the availability of a narrated review of their fibromyalgia pilot study, conducted in collaboration with the University of California, San Diego, and the Department of Veterans
Affairs. The study demonstrated a significant reduction in pain for fibromyalgia patients using the AVACEN Treatment Method, which involves noninvasive heat therapy through the palm. The results showed a 40% reduction in the widespread pain index and a decrease in tender point count. The AVACEN device, which is FDA-cleared, offers a drug-free alternative for chronic pain management.
Why It's Important?
The study's findings are crucial as they offer a new, non-pharmaceutical option for managing fibromyalgia, a condition affecting millions in the U.S. Traditional treatments often involve medications with limited effectiveness and potential side effects. The AVACEN Treatment Method provides a safer alternative, potentially improving the quality of life for sufferers. This development could influence the chronic pain treatment market, encouraging further research and adoption of noninvasive therapies.
