When developing next-generation implantable devices, this first question is critical: What exactly are we stimulating?
As John Rivera, our VP of Product Development, explains:
“Not all nerves are the same, and not all conditions can be treated the same way. I’ve heard the phrase ‘stim is stim,’ but that’s incorrect. You have to understand the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of your target—what it’s composed of and how it behaves.”
Each neural circuit functions differently. A therapy approach that works for chronic pain may not work for movement disorders, and vice versa.
That’s why our process begins with deep research into neural pathways, ensuring that every therapy we develop is tailored to its specific biological target.
