Competitive Landscape
RS Medical competes in the electrotherapy segment against both consumer-grade TENS/EMS device companies (e.g., Omron, Icy Hot) and other prescription-focused medical device firms. Its key differentiation is the patented Intersperse protocol, clinical support services, and its established prescriber network. It also competes broadly with other non-drug pain therapies like physical therapy tools, braces, and pharmacological alternatives.
