With chronic pain now affecting over one million people in Ireland, products that enable patients to manage their condition from home, may be within touching distance.
Cork based company, Laser Medical, has launched devices that use FDA approved laser technology, offering patients a convenient and affordable solution for pain management, and help alleviate the need for what can be costly and ineffective treatments, or lengthy waiting lists for medical appointments.
The company is the first in Ireland to sell the Rx Laser Pro and the Rx Laser Pad, products that have been successfully trialled by people with arthritis related pain across Ireland. The devices work by stimulating cellular activity, promoting tissue repair, reducing inflammation and providing pain relief. Designed to be user-friendly, means patients can easily operate them at home as part of a daily routine and can be used to treat pain caused by conditions such as arthritis, common sports injuries, etc.
Laser Medical was founded by chartered physiotherapist Shane Hennessy and by GP, Dr Sarah Kingston.
