Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapy does not eliminate the source of pain but it changes the way the brain perceives it. During the procedure, a small device, similar to a pacemaker is surgically placed under your skin. It delivers electrical pulses to the spinal cord and helps people better manage their pain. SSC Therapy is effective in the treatment and management of chronic pain in the back, leg or arm, especially if you have not found relief with other therapies.
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapy may not work for everyone as some people may find the sensation unpleasant, while others may not get relief from pain.
