Pulsing Skin Patch Could Be A Cheap Way To Say Goodbye To Pain, ActiPatch Reveals

A new £20 patch that fires pulses of energy at 1,000 times a second is being touted as a drug and side-effect-free way to banish chronic pain!

Worn next to the skin, the ActiPatch uses electromagnetic pulse therapy to disrupt pain signals and help ease long-term pain in the knees, back and shoulders.

The battery-powered device, which weighs just 8 grammes, can be worn 24 hours a day and is suitable for diabetics, people with arthritis and the elderly. Trials involving 254 people show that nine out of ten patients who used it saw a 60 percent reduction in pain.
