FIT Therapy Technology is different and it works

Introduction to the study

The study conducted by Professor Matteo Ricci, Associate Professor at the Orthopaedic Clinic in Verona and Medical Officer in Occupational Medicine, evaluates the results obtained by comparing two different therapies, known and used, with the innovative technology FIT Therapy Technology which is based on the FIRs wave reflectance to relieve pain in cases of acute or chronic inflammation. The therapies undertaken, in addition to FIT Therapy, consist of the application of a self-heating patch and a drug-release patch.

Objective of the study

• The aim is to determine the efficacy of different established therapies on the international market compared with FIT Therapy technology and to assess whether the latter can be an equal or superior alternative to the others. These therapies include the use of a self-heating patch and a drug-eluting patch.

• The results in terms of pain reduction were evaluated and a comparison was made regarding the cost of treatment by taking a 5-day treatment period. The methods of application of the therapies refer to the instructions in the leaflets.

Materials and methods used in the study

• Three different clusters of 20 patients each suffering from chronic low back pain with VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) pain perception from a value of 6 onwards are considered.

• They are treated for a period of 5 days.

Results and conclusions of the study

From the analysis of a total sample of 60 subjects, 20 of whom were treated with SELF-HEATING PATCH, 20 with DRUG RELEASE PATCH and 20 with FIT THERAPY TECHNOLOGY, it emerges that all three patches lead to a statistically significant reduction in VAS values between pre and post. In particular:

• FIT THERAPY TECHNOLOGY shows an average reduction of 38.45 %.

• 23.66 % DRUG RELEASE PATCH

• 18.27 % SELF-HEATING PATCH
