About this trial

This study will investigate the effectiveness of the Sana Pain Reliever (Sana PR) at reducing chronic pain.

The Sana PR is a device comprised of one main component (Mask with Earbuds) and two ancillary components (Charger and Headband). The device is worn over the eyes (with earbuds in ears). The device pulses light at a single wavelength but various frequencies throughout a specific firmware algorithm. Through the earbuds, the device also plays different tones in conjunction with the pulses. The device has a skin contacting Heart Rate Variability (HRV) sensor built into the forehead area that measures HRV throughout the use of the device.

The system runs for 15 min at a time and is not FDA approved.

The trial will last a total of 14 weeks.

50 participants who have a diagnosis of Post-treatment Lyme Disease and experience chronic pain are expected to take part in this study at Mount Sinai.
