Revolutionizing Pain Management: Spinal Cord Stimulation and Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
Spinal Cord Stimulation Unveiled
Discover the realm of spinal cord stimulation - an innovative pain management solution that orchestrates a transformation in how your brain perceives discomfort. This groundbreaking technique administers controlled electrical stimulation to not only the spinal cord but also the dorsal root ganglion and the brain itself, thereby mitigating and reshaping your perception of pain.
Key Components of the System
- Neurostimulator: Functioning akin to a pacemaker, this remarkable device generates the electrical impulses required for pain management. It is delicately positioned beneath the skin, typically in your upper abdomen or buttocks.
- Leads: These slender, insulated wires assume the role of precise messengers, carrying the electrical impulses to the epidural space adjacent to your spine.
- Patient's Programmer: Empowering you with customization capabilities, this handheld device allows you to tailor the electrical stimulation to harmonize with your unique pain requirements.
Introducing Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
Similar in concept to peripheral nerve stimulation, peripheral nerve stimulation diverges by directing the electrical impulses to your peripheral nerves, which reside outside your central nervous system.
Are You an Ideal Candidate for peripheral nerve stimulation?
Determining your candidacy for peripheral nerve stimulation is a collaborative endeavor between you and the specialists at Integrative Pain Management. This groundbreaking approach is most suitable for those grappling with chronic neuropathic pain conditions when conventional treatments have fallen short.
Conditions that stand to gain from spinal cord stimulation encompass
- Back pain
- Neuropathic pain
- Sciatica
- Complex regional pain syndrome
- Failed back surgery syndrome
- Spinal cord injuries
The Pinnacle of Pain Management Benefits
Spinal cord stimulation redefines the landscape of chronic pain management by offering a host of remarkable advantages. For instance, you can explore the effects of trial spinal cord stimulation before committing to permanent device placement.
What's more, the neurostimulator takes aim at the precise origin of your pain, potentially surpassing the efficacy of oral medications. Furthermore, you retain control over the device, allowing real-time adjustments as your pain ebbs and flows throughout the day.
Remarkably, even after device placement, your spinal or peripheral nerve stimulator remains adaptable and can be removed when the need arises.
