Small, highly specialized devices generate mild electrical pulses that are then delivered to the nerve(s) causing pain. The electricity “stimulates” the nerves, which masks pain signals before they can reach the brain, resulting in pain relief.

These neurostimulation devices are generally implanted beneath the skin, where they can safely and effectively provide pain relief for years, and in some cases even an entire lifetime.

Neurostimulation does not utilize any medications and can provide even better pain relief than opioids without any of the associated risks like addiction or tolerance.
