Explore cutting-edge, non-opioid neurostimulation technology that effectively manages complex, debilitating pain when other treatments have failed.
A Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) is a small, implanted device that delivers mild electrical pulses directly to the spinal cord. These pulses interrupt the pain signals before they reach the brain, replacing the feeling of chronic pain with a more tolerable, sometimes pleasant, sensation—or even eliminating the pain sensation entirely, depending on the technology used.
Key Benefit: SCS is a reversible, drug-free alternative designed for patients who have not found sufficient relief from medications, injections, or previous surgeries.
Unlike permanent surgery, SCS requires a temporary, no-obligation trial. This ensures the technology works effectively for your unique pain profile.
Small, temporary leads or wires are carefully placed in the epidural space of your spine, in a manner similar to an epidural injection, allowing for temporary testing of pain relief effectiveness.
You will wear the external stimulator battery pack for about five to seven days, actively testing and monitoring the device during your normal daily activities while evaluating overall pain relief and comfort.
If you experience a significant reduction (typically 50% or more) in your chronic pain, we move forward with the permanent, minimally invasive implant. If it does not work for you, the temporary leads are simply removed.
SCS is often the solution for chronic pain conditions such as:
SCS is a neurosurgical procedure. Dr. Bryant possesses the specialized training in neurosurgery required for precise implantation and programming, maximizing your outcome.
We offer the newest generation of SCS devices, including high-frequency and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) stimulation, tailored to your specific pain pattern.
Our membership ensures seamless coordination of the entire trial and implantation process, minimizing stress and administrative delays.
Take your first step toward a healthier, drug-free life and start building a future full of hope, recovery, and lasting positive change.
