EMulate Therapeutics, Inc. (EMTx) has developed a technology to deliver time-varying magnetic fields as WAV files, emitted in the extremely low through the low spectrum of radio frequencies (DC to 22 kHz), that can be applied to regulate pain sensation. These low power fields (~30-70 milli-Gauss AC RMS) are delivered via a portable, light-weight wearable device (Voyager). A contract third-party animal research organization (ANS Biotech, S.A.) specializing in validated rat pain models, ran the studies independently of the authors. Here we report that a subset of signals demonstrated a statistically significant effect in reducing the sensation of pain in rat models for visceral pain, neuropathic pain and inflammatory pain. Furthermore, removing frequencies above 6 kHz in the original signals improve the pain reducing effects of the unmodified signal.
