Vibration therapy during needle procedures improves pain sensitivity while worsening pain threshold: A randomized, crossover study of healthy volunteers
The BHD reduced procedural pain, supporting use of vibration therapy as a non-pharmacological strategy to improve patient comfort during needle procedures. Future studies should explore vibration patterns with clinical procedures and assess the device's impact across diverse populations.
