CURAPOD and VridhCare Partner to Support Senior Citizens Through Pain Management Initiative

Hyderabad, June 17, 2026: CURAPOD, a personalised wearable pain therapy device backed by Litemed India Private Limited, has partnered with VridhCare Quality of Life Foundation to support senior citizens through a community outreach initiative focused on pain management and healthy ageing.

The initiative was organised as part of CURAPOD’s ongoing ‘21 Days, 21 Fathers’ campaign, which aims to raise awareness about pain, mobility, and overall well-being among fathers and older adults.

As part of the programme, CURAPOD’s founders, doctors, trainers, and experts visited Amma Nanna Old Age Home in Hyderabad, where they engaged with 35 senior citizens and caregivers through awareness sessions and demonstrations of the company’s non-invasive pain management technology. Caregivers and volunteers also received training on device usage and therapy protocols to help extend support beyond the event.

The initiative focused on improving comfort, mobility, and quality of life for elderly residents while promoting awareness around pain management solutions that can support healthy ageing.

The visit also held personal significance for Mr. Suryaprakash Maguluri, Co-Founder & CTO, CURAPOD, who shared his reflections on interacting with the residents.

Mr. Suryaprakash Maguluri, Co-Founder & CTO, CURAPOD, said, “Many senior citizens silently live with chronic pain that affects their mobility, independence and overall quality of life. Through our partnership with VridhCare, we hope to make effective, non-invasive pain relief more accessible and help elderly residents stay active and have a pain-free life. What stood out during our visit was the resilience and positivity of the residents despite the challenges many of them face. Their outlook on life was both inspiring and humbling, and it reinforced our belief that innovation is most meaningful when it helps people live with greater comfort, dignity and confidence."

Mrs. Gargi Lakhanpal, Director of VridhCare Quality of Life Foundation, said, “this initiative is not only much needed, but also a commendable one. Seniors in old-age homes generally suffer from joint and muscle pain, which is caused by sedentary lifestyle and physical limitations. This effort could potentially lessen that debilitating impact. We hope this initiative will act as inspiration for others like Curapod to contribute in this direction. Only through collective effort can there be meaningful change”.

VridhCare, a not-for-profit organisation focused on improving the quality of life of elderly residents in old-age homes, partnered with CURAPOD to combine healthcare awareness with practical support for senior citizens.

Both organisations stated that they plan to expand their collaboration through future programmes aimed at promoting healthy ageing, mobility support, and improved well-being for older adults.
