THE SCIENCE behind DigiVibe
DigiVibe works through the Gate Control Theory of Pain. When activated, the device emits gentle vibrations that stimulate the injection site. These signals travel faster than pain signals and effectively "close the gate" before pain can register—resulting in a more comfortable experience for all ages.
- High-frequency vibrations activate non-pain nerve fibers
- Pain signals are blocked at the spinal cord level
- Clinically proven to reduce injection discomfort
DIGIVIBE: A Modern Application of the Pain Gate Theory
Building on the principles of the Pain Gate Theory, Digivibe represents a significant advancement in personal pain management.
The Pain Gate Theory proposes that the spinal cord contains a neurological "gate" that controls the flow of pain signals to the brain. When Digivibe's vibrations activate the larger A-beta nerve fibers, it effectively "closes" this gate to pain signals from smaller C-fibers.

Utilizes pulsed vibrations to activate larger nerve fibers that block pain signals
Clinical Research
Backed by studies confirming vibratory anesthesia reduces pain perception
A study published in 2020 by Doctor W. Yvecki explores the use of vibratory anesthesia to reduce pain perception in upper extremity corticosteroid injections. The research confirmed that vibratory anesthesia significantly decreases patient-reported pain compared to no intervention, illustrating the effectiveness of vibrational stimulation in clinical settings.
The Digivibe device incorporates this same concept, using portable vibrational technology to offer immediate pain relief without the need for pharmaceuticals.
