Paid provides a purpose, it tells you that something is wrong. If you loose that feedback you may make your problems worse.

My stim also uses electrodes and a “tripole” end rather than polymer yarn, but it also charges wirelessly.

Treating lower back pain with a stim is difficult. That’s a tough spot to program and cover properly, but if this works there’s a HUGE market!
