What is a Spinal Cord Stimulator?
A spinal cord stimulator (SCS) is a safe and effective surgically implanted device that can help reduce a patient’s chronic pain and use of pain medications. It may be an option for patients who have not been able to find relief using other therapies. SCS therapy works by interrupting pain signals before they reach the brain. When turned on, the spinal cord stimulator device delivers impulses of electric current to specific nerves on the spinal cord. As a result, the impulses disguise the pain signals traveling to the brain.

The technician was very nice and explained everything to me, so I could understand what was going to happen. I love the kind of respect I get from the people here. And they are willing to help with whatever I need to do. They really do listen to you. My doctor is just great also.
