Reduce pain better than opioids and heal injuries faster naturally. Dr. Amy Baxter shares her cutting edge research in the field of vibration and temperature therapy that you can do at home. Listen in here!

After researching pain and practicing pediatric emergency medicine for 20 years, Dr. Amy Baxter invented and was federally funded to research a cryovibration device (“Buzzy”) to eliminate pain from shots. “Buzzy” has now blocked pain from over 32 million needle procedures.

When adults started using Buzzy to avoid opioids after surgery, Dr. Baxter went full time to create and research reusable drug-free devices like VibraCool and DuoTherm Vibrating Back Relief.

Dr. Baxter publishes and speaks internationally on drug free pain relief, pain management, procedural sedation, and created and validated the BARF scale for children with cancer to rate nausea.

In her role as Chief Medical Officer and CEO of Pain Care Labs, Dr. Baxter has won numerous awards including the GA Bio "Most Innovative CEO", “Top 50 Healthcare Transformer", and "Industry Leader in Noninvasive Pain Relief." She was called the "Idea Person" by Wall Street Journal, and Top Women in Healthcare to Watch by Forbes magazine.

Amy has given TED talks on the rise, cause, and consequences of needle phobia, and on the Future of Pain Management at Exponential medicine. She is also known for turning down Mr. Wonderful on Shark Tank.
