The Kailo Pain Patch was created to provide relief from everyday pain and its design has since been improved to offer more elasticity with an all-new companion model called Kailo Flex. Like its predecessor, this pain relief product does not rely on drugs for effectiveness and it has proven to be just as in-demand—when Pain Relief Technologies launched an Indiegogo campaign for its first pain patch product, it raised over $2 million from more than 13,000 backers. Now, there's a new crowdfunding campaign for Kailo Flex and it met its funding goal in just 45 minutes.
Inside the pain patch, there are conducting and semi-conducting materials and they form capacitors that "were invented as an antenna to assist in the receipt and transmission of electromagnetic waves."
