We Offer Cutting Edge Treatment Options:
The Spinal Cord Stimulator
A spinal cord stimulator is a device used to exert pulsed electrical signals to the spinal cord to control chronic pain. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS), in the simplest form, consists of stimulating electrodes implanted in the epidural space, an electrical pulse generator implanted in the lower abdominal area or gluteal region, conducting wires connecting the electrodes to the generator, and the generator remote control. SCS has notable analgesic properties and is used in the treatment of failed back surgery syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome and refractory pain. SCS is a cutting edge, non-narcotic option for treating chronic pain. (view video) |
