Finding Relief from Chronic Pain Through Neuromodulation
Oftentimes, treatment for chronic pain will begin with a course of conservative therapies and treatments to help patients manage their pain. Oftentimes, this includes at-home therapies like anti-inflammatory pain medications, stretching, or hot/cold therapy for relief. However, if patients continue to experience pain after experimenting with these therapies, their doctor may recommend surgical intervention.
Neuromodulation, often referred to as spinal cord stimulation, is an excellent treatment option for patients seeking relief from debilitating chronic pain. This is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the implantation of a small device in the lower spine. This device has lead wires that connect to the spinal cord, which send tiny, painless electrical pulses to block pain signals. This therapy is extremely effective, helping many patients experience up to 95% relief from their chronic pain.
Neuromodulation Trials with Dr. Jeffrey Shall
BEST Health System administers neuromodulation programs for patients with conditions causing chronic pain. Whether you suffer from painful diabetic neuropathy, complex regional pain syndrome, or another condition that manifests chronic pain, this treatment might be the right option for you.
During neuromodulation trials, two small incisions will be made in the back to place lead wires on the spinal cord. The doctor will administer tiny electrical impulses to see how the patient’s pain responds to the treatment. If patients experience relief from this therapy, they can qualify for permanent implantation. This is an FDA-approved, safe treatment option that has been utilized for decades to help patients achieve relief from their chronic pain.
