ExcelHealth dba iReliev®: Less Pain, More Gain, for "12 Fastest Growing HealthCare Company

ExcelHealth dba iReliev<sup>®</sup>: Less Pain, More Gain, for

CIO VendorMike Williams, President and CEO
At 14 years old, now President and CEO of ExcelHealth dba iReliev®, Mike Williams experienced firsthand the devastating effects physical pain can have on an entire family. Through this experience, Mike Williams made it his mission in life to develop all-natural pain relief products, which in turn has helped shift the accessibility of the TENS+EMS Units from a prescription only delivery model to an over-the-counter (OTC) avoiding the complexity associated with insurance billing and physician required documentation.

In 2014, the same year the FDA approved the marketing of many TENS Units for headaches and similar pains, iReliev® joined in on the mission, introducing a family of electrotherapy devices to the market, including a portable, over-the-counter TENS unit. When presented with this opportunity in 2014 after working on the prescription side of the healthcare industry, Williams knew this was his opportunity to fulfill his mission in life. Since then, iReliev® has developed a family of portable, over-the-counter TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) two-in-one devices that can be used for pain relief and for muscle conditioning. And, unlike a torpedo fish, you don’t have to go walking along the beach to benefits from this clinically supported electric modality. Established as a multi-channel business, iReliev® collaborates with clinical institutions and physical therapists around the world, as well as large retailers such as Walmart, Dicks Sporting Goods, Costco Wholesale, and Sam’s Club to make the iReliev® products easily accessible to customers when they need them.

In a recent interview with Williams, he says “At iReliev®, we have a passion for addressing pain relief through all-natural, opioid free, pain relief methods that help people with pain management and muscle conditioning needs.
I have been on the prescription side of the business for many years, and there is a unique shift in the healthcare delivery model for many medical devices such TENS Units and Muscle Stimulators. What was once 100% prescription is now moving toward an OTC exclusive model. Affordability and accessibility should provide the tipping point needed to see wide spread in home use.”

Due to its commitment toward continued development of electrotherapy products and other wellness products that improve people’s lives, iReliev® has been on an exponential growth trajectory in the last three years. ExcelHeath was recently awarded by Inc. 500 #160 for being one of the fastest growing private companies is America and #12 fastest growing healthcare company.

Whether you’re a stay at home Mom, a weekend warrior or a professional athlete, people of all ages and interests are benefitting from muscle stimulation. The emergence of high output OTC wearable devices is creating widespread adoption the category has never seen before

In addition to ExcelHealth, the Inc. 5000 class of 2018 includes powerhouses such as Peloton, Brooklinen, and PopSockets. The 2018 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 538.2 percent, and a median rate of 171.8 %. Not only have the companies on the 2018 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared to prior lists. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $206.1 billion in 2017, accounting for 664,095 jobs over the past three years. Companies such as Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, GoPro, Timberland, Clif Bar, Patagonia, Oracle, LinkedIn, Yelp, and Zillow are just some of the alumni of Inc. that have gone on to become household names.

Through their excellence in product development, product accessibility, ease of use, and world-class customer service, ExcelHealth dba iReliev® has significantly helped shift the 100% prescription model to an exclusive over-the-counter model.
