OUR STORY
Innovarius Corp, incorporated in Delaware with US operations in Florida, was founded in 2015 by Dr. Eric Miller and the late Dr. Al Nuñez DVM to develop non-invasive radiofrequency pulsed electromagnetic field therapy for animals.
Our first product, the NICE Therapeutics SanaWave, is a combination of radiofrequency energy, pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) and harmonic resonance, and is available to veterinarians across the United States.
The technologies within the SanaWave work together to generate deep penetrating resonant waveforms and warms from within the tissues over large body areas. This is in contrast to the superficial heating of the skin or application of magnetic fields from outwardly applied sources as associated with laser devices, PEMF-only therapies, and over-the-counter heat wraps, heating pads, or topical creams/ointments.
Research on these therapies show they can help reduce pain, increase mobility and flexibility, and accelerate healing.
SanaWave is in use in veterinary clinics in ten US states. Reported use is in pain, inflammation, mobility and recovery, including intervertebral disc disease. The company holds a library of veterinary case reports, and a preclinical research programme is under way.
We are working to expand the network so more animals can be treated closer to home.

OUR FOUNDERS
Dr. Albert J. Nuñez, DVM, CVA, CRS
From a very young age, a love of biology and medicine was his passion and later became his purpose. He proudly inherited the work ethic, compassion, and respect for alternative medical therapies from his parents and elders. Dr. Nunez first studied Human Medicine and then furthered his curiosity and thirst for knowledge by then enrolling in Veterinary School where he went on to graduate with honors in 1991 from ROSS University. Dr. Nuñez practiced large and small animal clinical medicine with an emphasis on dairy and beef herd health as well as Equine and Exotic patients large and small.
Dr. Nuñez continued his veterinary education and became certified in Veterinary Acupuncture holding an additional degree from the Chi Institute of Chinese Medicine.
His experience in human medicine helped him advance the standard level of care of his veterinary patients. In his pursuit to advance the Veterinary standard level of care, Dr. Nuñez studied applied physics and alternative medical therapies allowing him to develop an integrated multimodal team-oriented approach for the caring of his patients using many electroceutical and optical technologies.
Dr. Nuñez founded and ran two Integrated Animal Research Hospitals that made Innovarius therapies part of their core practice. He was a pioneer in the development of radiofrequency devices for veterinary use and a developer of SanaWave. He developed protocols for the use of the technology across many disciplines and species.
Dr. Nuñez's mission, and that of Innovarius, was to relieve pain and suffering while elevating the standard of care across as many disciplines and as many species as possible.
Dr. Nuñez balanced his love of medicine with his love for his wife and children.
He was Co-Founder and Chief Research Scientist of Innovarius.
*We tragically lost Dr Nunez in the Spring of 2020. His Leadership, vision and dedication were deeply valued by all who knew him. He will be remembered not only for his professional accomplishments, but for the lives he touched and the lasting impact he made on his family, his colleagues and community. His Legacy continues through the work he helped create here at Innovarius. Together our team remains focused on carrying forward Dr Nunez's vision and continuing the work he cared so deeply about.
" A Life dedicated to helping others does not end with death, its impact continues through the lives touched and the work left behind "
