Nerve pain is estimated to affect as many as 1 in 10 adults. Many turn to opioids for effective pain management, which can lead to dependence. Researchers at
UTSA - The University of Texas at San Antonio are developing a new approach: a platform that can send treatment instructions into the brain from outside the body using magnetic signals.

A noninvasive technology uses harmless magnetic fields to deliver drugs and soothe overactive nerves without opioids or surgery.
