For additional questions or personalized support, please reach out to our team.
What is neurostimulation?
Neurostimulation involves the use of electrical impulses to modulate nerve activity and treat chronic pain or certain neurological disorders. Techniques include spinal cord stimulation, peripheral nerve stimulation, and deep brain stimulation.
Who can benefit from neurostimulation?
Patients with chronic pain, neuropathic pain, movement disorders, or refractory headaches that have not responded to conventional treatments may be candidates. Our team performs a thorough evaluation to determine if neurostimulation is appropriate.
What is the recovery process like after neurostimulation implantation?
Recovery varies depending on the type of device and procedure, but most patients can return to daily activities within a few days to weeks. Follow-up care includes device programming, monitoring, and adjustments to optimize symptom relief.
