Buzzy4Shots ... taking the sting out of shots

BUZZY is a small vibrating device designed to help block sharp pain and provide distraction during medical procedures.

A cooling pad (ice-wings) is placed behind Buzzy, and Buzzy is placed between the brain and the pain (usually on arms or hands). Turn Buzzy on and leave him in place during the procedure. Your attention is taken away from the needle and pain and focused on the cool, vibrating buzzy bee.

Buzzy confuses your body’s own nerves and distracts attention away from the pain, thereby dulling or eliminating sharp injection pain. In the same way that rubbing a bumped elbow helps, or cool running water soothes a burn.

The gate control theory is the basis for Buzzy. “Gate control” is the term used to describe pain relief by causing sensations other than pain, and then sending them down the same pathway where pain gets blocked at the “gate”. Sharp pain, itching, and burning are transmitted on the same nerve to a transmission system in the dorsal (sensory) horn of the spinal cord. Motion signals travel alongside pain fibers on Abeta nerves, as do temperature and pressure nerves (C fibers). A single summary signal is then transmitted up the spinal cord, thus excess vibration or cold can overwhelm or dilute the sharp pain from shots, itching, or burning from medications.

Buzzy is used in dozens of hospitals, healthcare facilities, general practices, clinics and in homes throughout New Zealand and Australia.

Beautiful Buzzy Bee

This product should be a basic tool of trade in all clinics that immunise.

Genius Product

Bless the person who invented this product. My 6 year old was recently diagnosed with T1 diabetes and she screamed every time we came anywhere near her with a needle. On a diabetes facebook page I saw buzzy. We got one and it has made the world of difference. No problems now to blood sugar tests. She doesn't seem to feel a thing and it gives her something she can focus on instead of the prick.

Cancer treatment

My daughter has leukemia which involves a very long treatment plan involving lots of injections, blood tests and medical treatments with needles. Like many children she is scared of needles. I googled ways we could help her through and came across Buzzy. I'm so glad we found this little bee because he has made a world of difference. It really has worked wonders and given her a way of control over a scary situation. The nurses are lovely and so supportive and they have welcomed the use of her buzzy for each treatment. So much so, they are getting their own supply of buzzies for their department. I think this product should be funded for all cancer wards, not just for kids, but for adults too. There is lots of medical trials which back up the science behind why/how it works to distract the nerves. Thanks to the inventor of this little product that has made such a big difference.

Really impressed

My 12 year old daughter had always received vaccinations with not too much fuss but something changed in her mindset and she wouldn’t get her next scheduled vaccination. She was quite hysterical on 2 times of trying. I eventually bought the Buzzy and we managed to do 2 in one day. She had seen her little sister use it at a covid vax clinic and decided this was the only way she would get it done. The nurse at the clinic was impressed and bought one for the clinic.

Distraction at its finest

I am an enrolled Nurse that gives immunisations and deals with lots of children with wounds and also adults that are scared of needles. This is one of the best tools I have purchased. keeps children calm and aids in distracting them.
