E258 Instant Relief

In this episode, Michaela sits down with entrepreneur Mike Hammond, founder of Signal Relief and a longtime startup builder who has launched several companies across industries. Hammond shares the unusual origin story behind the Signal Relief patch—a drug-free device developed after engineers working in radio and antenna technology discovered that a specialized antenna pattern could interact with the body’s electrical fields and potentially reduce pain signals.The conversation explores Hammond’s entrepreneurial journey, his belief in non-pharmaceutical approaches to pain management, and the science claims behind the product, including theories about electrical signaling and the body’s internal water charge. Michaela brings a clinician’s lens to the discussion, asking practical questions about how the technology is supposed to work, what evidence exists, and where skepticism is warranted.The episode also includes Michaela’s candid reflections on whether the product actually works in real-world use—balancing curiosity with critical thinking as she weighs anecdotal testimonials against scientific validation. The result is a thoughtful conversation about innovation, wellness products, and the challenge of separating genuine breakthroughs from hype in the health marketplace.Visit Signal Relief use promo code SKYTALKDOC https://signalrelief.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoql_hXj-JFsRmAPtEmShvM1tO4adB3i49iRJ4HuqMCNDk3loDLOIf you're interested in the Bioactive Peptides Michaela talks about, here's a link for a special $10 off.
