FREDERICK, Md., March 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- BioElectronics
Corporation (OTC Pink: BIEL), the maker of advanced consumer
medical devices and drug-free pain therapies, announced today that
it is participating in upcoming consumer educational events and
programs as part of an international campaign to discuss
alternative pain modalities.
BioElectronics is participating in "Take Control of Your Pain"
day sponsored by the U.S. Pain Foundation on Sunday, March 9, at the Phoenix Convention
Center. Mac Stein, MSc, PT,
will answer questions and provide information about drug-free
treatment of injuries and chronic pain. Stein, a
registered physical therapist, has been using BioElectronics
products in his practice since 2009.
"Consumers should know that physical therapy especially when
augmented with pain relief devices like those made by
BioElectronics can provide significant relief by quickly minimizing
pain and reducing swelling. ActiPatch seamlessly integrates
with most pain management programs," Stein said. Stein
pointed out that localized treatments are inherently less risky
than systemic drugs with the potential for side effects and drug
interactions. Phoenix area
