Livia
If you get menstrual cramps then you know just how debilitating they can be. Even if your period can be managed with a few Advil throughout the day, many of us don’t want to rely on handfuls of pills. For others, these pills simply don’t work. That’s where Livia comes in, a new wearable specifically designed for women that eliminates menstrual pain! Livia, which was over 1000% funded on Indiegogo, is currently available on the company’s website. Livia is a drug-free solution to period pain, that provides relief from cramps by using physiotherapy technology and electrical pulses to block pain receptors. In simple terms, the signal between the cramping muscle and the brain is interrupted, which means that you lose the sense of the actual pain. Livia is easy to use, all the information can be found on their website. With one single touch, you can switch off your period pain. No pain, no pills, no problem!
