Seeking neuroscientists and neuro-tech specialising in women's health I'm working on a report that looks at the emerging neurotech market. Specifically, how it's being utilised by women to help them manage pain. I've already interviewed one neuroscientist, and am looking to speak to more people in this field who have experience in treating women's health conditions.

I have witnessed how neurotechnology changed to be more of an experiment to a necessity among women who have chronic pain. Such tools as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and neurofeedback are particularly useful in the context of such conditions as migraines, fibromyalgia, and chronic pains in the pelvis. This is because these technologies alter the mechanisms of the neural pathways that process pain. TMS is a non-pharmacological method that involves the magnetic pulsations applied on the particular parts of the brain to elicit a calming effect on the overactive pain response. Neurofeedback uses a different manner in which real-time data of brain activity is used to teach patients how to self-control their neurological reactions to pain. These non-invasive choices are life-changing to women who are interested in the alternatives to drugs. Instead of covering the symptoms, they treat the underlying neurological patterns, and this is a long-term solution to enhancing the quality of life and everyday functioning.
