How It Works

Here is how it works:

When we experience pain from an acute injury or chronic condition, we often rub on the skin over the area to reduce the pain. Rubbing generates mechanical forces that turn on tiny receptors under the skin that work to shut down pain.

These receptors shut down pain by activating nerves that transmit impulses to the spinal cord to block pain signals and prevent them from reaching the brain.

PainPause is designed to provide a new and much more effective, reliable and longer lasting way to use this mechanism to treat pain.

PainPause consists of an adhesive patch that contains an array of tiny hairlike Micro-Points with cantilever springs. When the patch is applied to the skin, the Micro-Points gently penetrate just below the surface where the pain inhibiting receptors are located. The springs in the array of Micro-Points create mechanical forces on them, targeting the receptors in the skin. This powerfully activates them which transmits impulses to nerves that shut down pain signals at the level of the spinal cord and prevent them from reaching the brain.

PainPause is the only product on the market that works in this way to provide powerful pain relief.

Provides Uninterrupted Pain Relief for Up to 7 Days

One of the other unique features of PainPause is its ability to provide up to one week of continuous pain relief. This is achieved by the secure attachment of PainPause to the skin for one week. This is provided by a combination of the strong durable adhesive Cover and the Micro-Points. People can bathe and carry out their normal activities and without the risk of PainPause coming off.
