Curapod Launches Wearable for Period Pain Relief Using Light Therapy
What Happened
Curapod has launched Curapod M, a wearable device designed to manage menstrual pain using red and near-infrared light therapy (photobiomodulation). Worn on the lower abdomen, the device connects to a mobile app that adjusts light dosage based on factors such as age, BMI and pain intensity, while also offering cycle tracking features. Clinical evaluations cited by the company, covering around 600 menstrual cycles, found that 80% of users reported zero pain after treatment. The device is reported to be CDSCO-licensed and FDA-registered.
Key Takeaways
The launch highlights growing interest in non-drug, wearable health technologies for women’s health. After selling more than 50,000 pain-management devices, Curapod says it plans to expand its light-therapy platform into other areas including migraine relief and wellness applications.
