OHSU is interested in Massage Chair Study!

I got an email today from OHSU and they are interested in doing a study. Here is part of that email:
"Great news on the results with the chair. I am always interested in doing a study. What we need, ideally, is a study in which one group gets the chair in action and the other group gets the chair while relaxing to soothing music (or some other non-movement) control group. We would need to raise about 75k and get the 2 chairs free to do such a study. We have to pay for IRB costs, subject recruitment, parking, statistical help etc... "A less scientific study would be to use the chairs without a control group, meaning that we just ask people before and after how their pain, sleep and fatigue were. That probably wouldn't get published. Too soft for science."
