Southfield, Michigan – People suffering from lower back pain might get some relief by participating for free in a clinical study planned by three biomedical engineering students at Lawrence Technological University.

Lawrence Tech students William Addis, Joshua Wells and Evgeny Tofler want to track results for people who undergo free treatment on a back pain table twice a day for a month. Participants would also have to fill out a weekly pain survey questionnaire online.

The back pain table was developed by a local inventor.

Anyone interested in participating in the clinical study should contact Addis at (586) 258-8757 or williamaddis88@yahoo.com.
