The International Hyperhidrosis Society is a small nonprofit based in Pipersville, Pennsylvania, focused on the needs of people affected by hyperhidrosis, as well as their friends, families, and healthcare providers. It operates within the wellness and fitness services sector and partners with advocates, researchers, policy-makers, biopharma innovators, educators, employers, and regulators to provide information, support, and resources. The organization supports scientific research into the biology of excessive sweating and seeks to improve treatment options, while advocating for patient access to those treatments. It also conducts educational efforts for healthcare providers to enhance understanding of hyperhidrosis physiology, diagnosis, and treatment, and to foster effective physician-patient relationships, while highlighting the emotional and economic impacts of the condition. In June 2023, miraDry, Inc. partnered with the International Hyperhidrosis Society, marking a recent development in its collaborative work.
