Innovative Relief: Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chronic Pain
Are you tired of living with chronic back or leg pain every single day? At Wisteria Health, we know how frustrating it can be to try countless treatments—pain medications, physical therapy, or even surgery—only to see minimal improvement. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) offers a targeted, minimally invasive way to reduce pain so you can focus on the activities you love instead of constant discomfort.
A Direct Approach to Pain Relief
When pain signals travel from the nerves to your brain, they often feel relentless. Spinal cord stimulation works by sending low-voltage electrical pulses along the spinal cord to intercept these signals. Instead of severe pain, many patients describe feeling a gentle tingling or no sensation at all. This direct interruption of pain pathways can provide a level of relief that other methods simply can’t match, especially if you’ve been struggling for months—or even years—without success.
Why Choose Spinal Cord Stimulation?
Reduced Reliance on Medications: Many SCS patients find they can lower or eliminate their use of opioids and other strong drugs.
Customizable Relief: A handheld remote lets you adjust your stimulation settings, so you’re never stuck with a “one-size-fits-all” approach to pain.
Minimally Invasive: The implant process involves placing thin wires near your spinal cord, connected to a small generator under your skin. Most patients go home the same day or shortly after.
Trial Phase: Before anything is permanent, you have the option to test-drive the therapy through a temporary device—ensuring you experience genuine pain relief before committing.
Who Can Benefit?
Spinal cord stimulation is ideal for individuals dealing with:
Chronic back or leg pain unresponsive to traditional therapies
Nerve-related (neuropathic) pain that interrupts daily life
Failed back surgery syndrome, where conventional surgeries haven’t eased your discomfort
Complex regional pain syndrome, characterized by ongoing, intense pain in a limb
If you’ve been coping with persistent pain for several months, or if other procedures haven’t brought you the relief you need, SCS may be the answer.
