Nexalin Technology participates in Congressional roundtable

Nexalin Technology announced its participation in a high-profile Congressional roundtable in North Carolina, focused on emerging virtual therapeutic options for opioid treatment. The event was hosted by the Breaking Barriers for Substance Use Recovery initiative and featured key stakeholders from across the healthcare and policy spectrum. The roundtable, held with Dr. Greg Murphy, U.S. Congressman representing North Carolina’s 3rd District, centered on the deployment of virtual-based opioid therapy models across the country. Dr. Murphy, Congress’ only actively practicing physician, serves on the Health Subcommittee of the Veterans Affairs Committee and is a strong advocate for innovative healthcare solutions, particularly those aimed at addressing the opioid crisis. The invitation-only roundtable brought together thought leaders and innovators to discuss the potential of virtual therapies to overcome the stigma and geographic barriers often associated with traditional in-clinic treatment options. Nexalin’s approach to virtual therapeutic solutions, which is expected to play a significant role upon FDA clearance, was highlighted as a promising tool in the fight against opioid addiction. During the discussions, emphasis was placed on establishing stronger practices within the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration to encourage the adoption of virtual-based therapies. These therapies, including Nexalin’s neurostimulation technology, aim to provide effective treatment options that can be accessed remotely, expanding the reach and impact of mental health care.
