Patients with persistent pain after spine surgery or patients who do not wish or qualify to have spine surgery. A spinal cord stimulator is a small implanted device that sends signals directly to the spinal cord to relieve pain directly at the source. Small wires are inserted along the spine and attached to a battery pack under the skin. The SCS blocks the perception of pain from reaching the brain and can be controlled by a small handheld device. This powerful device can significantly improve quality of life and function, and significantly reduce or entirely eliminate the need for pain medications.

With PNS, a small electrode is placed along the course of the peripheral nerve and attached to a small battery pack. The electrode is able to deliver rapid electrical impulses in order to allow the patient to control and block the perception of pain.
