Clinical Research

At OptiRTP we are committed to rigorous clinical research and evidence generation to better understand how Optimum Bio Sound Therapy (OBST) is experienced in real-world settings and to inform future validation pathways. OBST is registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a Class I medical device and with New Zealand’s Medsafe.
