We employ our core, patented bioelectric
stimulation technology in multiple innovations –
directed to different organs

The same bioelectric signaling sequences for stem cell homing, tissue regeneration, improving circulation, muscle recovery, collagen repair, and elasticity recovery are required to repair and regenerate multiple areas of the body, and we have developed the technology to direct the signals to specific organ targets. Additionally, we are creating unique organ interfaces for specific applications including skin, hair, brain, and blood pressure.
Stimulators for Multiple Applications
  • Portable stimulators or at-home use 
  • Benchtop bioelectric stimulators/devices for clinics
  • Implantable stimulators and re-fillable infusion pumps for deep organ regeneration

4.  PressureStim www.pressurestim.com – We are enrolling in a clinical study for the reduction of blood pressure. Multiple issued patents. New portable stimulator developed with auto-sequencing of signals.

Patent –  Bioelectric Blood Pressure Management 

A patent # US1167141B2 for bioelectric blood pressure management was issued to Leonhardt Ventures LLC, inventor Howard J. Leonhardt. Abstract: Described are a system and method that utilize bioelectric signaling to balance electrical potentials in a subject’s body via neuro-hormonal circuit loops, to increase elasticity of the subject’s arteries to promote protein release to dampen arterial blood pressure, and to change arterial electrical charges to reduce narrowing of the arteries. The described system is designed to localize and stimulate the fibers inside the vagus nerve without inadvertent stimulation of non-baroreceptive fibers causing side effects like bradycardia and bradypnea. The system also controls release of specific proteins known to lower blood pressures including tropoelastin (known to increase elasticity in the aorta and other peripheral blood vessels).https://patents.google.com/patent/US11167141B2/en
