Chronic pain can affect every part of your life—walking, sleeping, working, and even enjoying simple daily moments. When traditional treatments no longer provide relief, a spinal cord stimulator can offer real, long-lasting improvement.
Is this treatment the right option for your type of pain?
Spinal cord stimulators use gentle electrical impulses to interrupt pain signals before they reach the brain. This helps restore mobility, functionality, and overall quality of life—without the need for major surgery.
Key Benefits of a Spinal Cord Stimulator:
- Significant relief from chronic back, leg, and arm pain.
- Minimally invasive procedure with quick recovery.
- Personalized adjustments based on pain intensity.
- Reduces reliance on medications, including opioids.
- Proven results for patients with persistent pain after back surgery.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate?
- Individuals with persistent neuropathic pain.
- Patients who haven’t responded well to medication or physical therapy.
- People experiencing pain after spine surgery (failed back surgery syndrome).
- Patients looking for a solution that avoids major surgical procedures.
What Results Can You Expect?
Many patients experience 50% to 80% improvement in pain, along with better mobility, improved sleep, and a greater ability to return to daily activities.
How the Procedure Works
The treatment includes two stages—a trial phase and a permanent implantation. This allows patients to test the device and ensure meaningful pain relief before moving forward with long-term placement.
- Outpatient trial phase with temporary leads.
- Pain relief is monitored over several days.
- Permanent placement if the trial is successful.
