What’s trending
QUELL™ WEARABLE THERAPY
If you’ve ever wished you could “wear” pain relief therapy
whenever you needed it, then Quell™ Wearable Therapy could
be just what you’re looking for! Using Transcutaneous Electrical
Nerve Stimulation (TENS) technology, Quell is said to relieve
nerve-related pain in as little as just 15 short minutes.
How? You strap on the passport-sized device to the back
of your calf, turn it on, and then it sends electrical pulses
to your nerves, signaling your brain to release pain-soothing
opioids. The company says that Quell can diminish pain
due to conditions such as sciatica, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid
arthritis, knee injuries, sprains and even
labor pains. All that and there is an
accompanying app which gives feedback
concerning your therapy sessions,
the device’s battery life and your sleep—
all of which Quell tracks using a built-in
accelerometer. To learn more, go to
