Why Buy Your Iontophoresis Electrodes From Balego?

by Service, Training and Support·September 26, 2026

Our experience with iontophoresis began in the 1980s, when we served as a regional distributor for the original IOMED, Inc., the U.S. medical device company. In the 1990s, we helped establish test sites for the IontoPatch product line through our work with Birch Point Medical, later known as Travanti Pharma. We still carry IontoPatch today.

That history is part of what you receive when you choose us for iontophoresis electrodes and patches: a supplier with a longstanding connection to the field and an ongoing commitment to helping customers understand the products they purchase.

Our iontophoresis roots: regional distribution for IOMED

Our involvement started with the original U.S. IOMED business during the 1980s. As a regional distributor, we participated in the supply side of a specialized area of rehabilitation technology—one where the electrode, delivery system, and product instructions all matter.

That connection remains an important part of our company story. Iontophoresis has been part of our work across decades of changes in products and purchasing practices. Today, we bring that perspective to the questions customers ask when sourcing supplies, reviewing product information, and finding support resources.

Our early involvement with Birch Point Medical and IontoPatch (now LTS Therapy Systems)

During the 1990s, our work with Birch Point Medical included helping set up test sites for its IontoPatch patch product line. Birch Point Medical later became known as Travanti Pharma.

Our role was helping establish test sites. This experience connected us to IontoPatch early in its history and gave the product line a lasting place in our business.

The public industry timeline provides context: the FDA record for IontoPatch, K992708, identifies Birch Point Medical as the applicant, with a submission received in August 1999 and a substantial-equivalence decision in February 2000.

We continue to offer IontoPatch iontophoresis patches. For us, that connection spans early test-site involvement and the practical ordering questions customers bring to us today.
