Navigating chronic pain? Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) could be a life-changing solution. SCS is a non-opioid therapy that uses a small, implanted device to deliver mild electrical pulses to the spinal cord, interrupting pain signals before they reach the brain.
To see if SCS is right for you, the first step is an online educational class to understand how it works. Then, you’ll complete a temporary trial to see if it effectively reduces your pain. The goal is at least a 50% reduction in pain symptoms and an improved quality of life.
