Discover Neuroglide For Pain Management

There are at least three well-studied neurophysiological mechanisms that contribute to Neuroglide’s effectiveness in relieving and managing pain.

‍1. Neuroglide therapy uses gentle touch that can inhibit pain.
When you cut or bang your finger, a natural response is to grab and hold the injured area, because the pressure helps to dull the pain. This effect is known as “analgesic touch”—how sensory pressure signals inhibit the transmission of pain signals to the brain.

The persistent, gentle pressures that Neuroglide applies below the skin provide a steady stream of pain-inhibiting touch signals that help to alleviate pain throughout the body.

‍2. Neuroglide therapy may reduce stress-related pain.
Stress can cause pain, tightness or soreness in your muscles, as well as spasms of pain. Stress can also lower your threshold of pain, leading to flare-ups.

Neuroglide therapy triggers your body’s relaxation response, which helps to reduce pains that are aggravated by stress.

3. Neuroglide therapy may help manage inflammation-related pain.
Inflammation is vital to your immune response to injury and infection, but persistent inflammation can aggravate pain.

Neuroglide therapy improves circulation in the lymphatics and dermal tissues that clears away chemicals and hormones contributing to inflammation, which may reduce inflammation-related pain.

The Neuroglide Back/Neck Pad exploits several different physiological mechanisms for relieving pain.
‍
Some of those mechanisms help to relieve pain in regions of the body that are in close contact with the pad as it applies pressure against the skin. This includes pain in the hips, lower back, upper back, shoulders, and neck.
‍
Any pain relief you experience will typically result from local and global pain relief mechanisms operating together. Pain relief in the lower back, for example, may arise from a combination of:

• local pain-relieving effects of Neuroglide’s gentle pressures against your lower back, and
  
• pain relief resulting from “analgesic touch”, where sensory signals inhibit the perception of pain throughout the body.

The Neuroglide Back/Neck Pad should not be used to treat pain resulting from a condition that requires a physician's care (acute infections, open wounds, lesions, tumors, bone fractures, spinal cord injury, etc.) or that is related to an underlying cardiovascular condition (heart problems, vascular problems, acute edema or thrombosis, etc.)
