The world needs better pain treatments


Pain is widely considered as one of the biggest problems in medicine today: a 2016 UK-based review indicates that an estimated 28 million adults in the UK suffer from chronic pain 1. Adequate treatment is often unavailable or hard to access, and as a specialist business focused on this market niche, we’re determined to tackle this problem.

“Imagine going through your daily life where everything that you touch, or that touches you, where almost every noise around you from a passing car to children playing, causes you pain. We will leave no stone unturned to help these patients.”
