TAMPA, FL – August 20, 2007 - Anodyne
Therapy, LLC announced today a new pain study was published in Practical Pain
Management, a peer-reviewed medical journal for pain management specialists.
The study involved 493 patients who, prior to treatment, had experienced
significant pain in their feet and legs for more than four years on average.
Patients treated with Anodyne Therapy and physical therapy demonstrated a 64%
reduction overall in their foot and leg pain. Prior to treatment, 74% of the
patients experienced significant pain despite taking pain medications. As a
result of the therapy intervention, these patients experienced a 65% decrease
in pain and 51% of these patients reported they achieved this pain reduction
while reducing their pain medications.
“We are extremely pleased to have a growing body of evidence which includes 12
peer-reviewed studies showing the efficacy of Anodyne Infrared Photo Therapy on
over 4500 patients,” said Craig Turtzo, CEO. “This study is particularly
important because it demonstrates that significant pain relief occurs
independent of changes in pain medications – and that over half of the patients
were able to reduce or discontinue their pain medications.
