Neuropathy
Interrupt the pain signal. Restore your quality of life.
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Diabetic neuropathy
- Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy
- Chronic nerve pain in the feet or legs
- Small fiber neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy — numbness, burning, tingling, or chronic nerve pain — often worsens over time with medication alone. The right approach depends on the underlying cause (for example diabetic, chemotherapy-related, or small-fiber disease). Peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) and spinal cord stimulation (SCS) deliver gentle electrical impulses that modulate pain signals before they reach the brain.
It's not masking the pain. It's changing how your nervous system processes it.
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)
A thin lead placed near the affected peripheral nerve delivers precisely calibrated electrical pulses that modulate pain signals — providing lasting relief without systemic medication side effects.
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS)
For appropriate candidates, electrodes along the spinal cord modify pain signals before they reach the brain — often considered when symptoms are widespread or not limited to a single peripheral nerve.
Before
A thorough evaluation of your neuropathy type, severity, and prior treatments to determine whether PNS, SCS, or another pathway best fits your anatomy and etiology.
During
Lead placement is performed under light sedation with imaging guidance. A trial period allows you to evaluate the benefit before permanent implantation.
After
Most patients experience significant improvement during the trial. Permanent implantation is a brief outpatient procedure with minimal downtime.
