Migraine headaches and neck pain account for an estimated 250
million work and school days lost per year, effecting 30 million
people in the United States alone. Chronic sufferers have few
therapeutic options which provide temporary relief from pain with
an increasing risk of side effects and complications. In
addition, current therapy can not be given to pregnant or nursing
women or those taking pills to treat other ailments, like heart
problems or diabetes.
Based on well-established neurological and physiological
principles, Occiflex, HEADWAY's innovative medical device,
relaxes the head and neck muscles, thereby breaking the vicious
cycle of pain. Occiflex will meet the needs of the millions of
patients who suffer from chronic headaches (i.e. migraines,
tension-type, over-use, myofascial, cervicogenic and
post-traumatic) and neck pain (i.e. whiplash, cervical
facet-joint disorder and post spinal surgery) who are eager for a
highly effective, safe and long term solution with minimal side
effects.
Benefits of Occiflex:
* Device Therapy: Non-invasive, naturally therapeutic, gentle and
safe
* Muscular Treatment: Restores normal neck muscle activation
patterns
* Treatment Optimization: Uses real-time patient data to provide
optimal treatment
* Efficient reduction in pain: Passive movement, enabling a
significant decrease of head and neck muscle activation which is
crucial for a full span of muscle relaxation
* User Experience: Occiflex treatment is expected to create a
positive experience that will leave the patient eager to come
back for treatment
* Cost Effectiveness: Occiflex has the flexibility and mobility
to be attached to an existing treatment table.
