Iovera is a non-surgical, non-opioid treatment option that uses extreme cold to stop nerves from sending pain signals, according to a Feb. 13 press release.
Iovera is administered with a non-surgical handheld device that allows healthcare providers to block pain for immediate and long-term relief by delivering precise cold therapy to a targeted nerve.
