Flowly vs TechSANS

Chronic pain sucks. Our team felt this firsthand, and enlisted a world class team of pain experts to design a 12-week curated program designed to take you from pain state, to flow state “Flowly helps manage not only the physical aspects of living with pain and anxiety, but also offers invaluable support to overcome the mental challenges that come along with it.” -Dr. Aman Mahajan, Chair of Perioperative Medicine at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center “Flowly’s virtual worlds help users reclaim a sense of calm and safety at the emotional and physical level, thus allowing them to reduce activation in their nervous system and pain in their body.” -Pierre Etienne-Vannier, Mind-Body Practitioner *How Does It Work?* Flowly’s Healing from Pain Program is a curated 12-week program with new lessons, daily trainings, and access to a coach included Weeks 1-4: Building the Foundation In your first week, you will receive a Kit that includes a VR headset and a HR sensor so you can engage in your daily VR nervous system training.

There are 1,000+ studies dedicated to both therapies for pain. Flowly itself is partnered with UPMC and USC for studies with a grant awarded by the National Institute of Health. Dr. Robert Tien, the former Chair of Neuroradiology at Duke, says this, “Flowly’s experiences help enhance a user’s Vagus Nerve function, which plays a crucial role in preventing inflammation, increasing heart resilience, and treating symptoms of chronic pain and anxiety.
