Neuromodulation is a rapidly growing field in the treatment of chronic pain. This technique involves the use of electrical stimulation, chemicals, or other methods to alter the activity of nerve cells in the body. The goal of neuromodulation is to reduce pain and improve function in individuals who have chronic pain conditions that are not responding to traditional therapies.
One of the most common forms of neuromodulation used to treat chronic pain is spinal cord stimulation (SCS). SCS involves the implantation of a device that delivers electrical stimulation to the spinal cord. This stimulation can help to reduce pain and improve function in individuals with chronic pain conditions such as failed back surgery syndrome, chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and neuropathic pain.
Another form of neuromodulation that is gaining popularity in the treatment of chronic pain is peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS). PNS involves the implantation of a device that delivers electrical stimulation to a specific peripheral nerve or group of nerves. This can help to reduce pain and improve function in individuals with chronic pain conditions such as peripheral neuropathy, chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and phantom limb pain.
In addition to SCS and PNS, there are other forms of neuromodulation that are being used to treat chronic pain. These include deep brain stimulation (DBS), which involves the implantation of a device that delivers electrical stimulation to specific areas of the brain, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain.
The benefits of neuromodulation for chronic pain are numerous. It can help to reduce pain and improve function in individuals with chronic pain conditions that are not responding to traditional therapies. It is also non-invasive and has minimal side effects.
At Assessments Inc, we offer medical clearance to ensure that neuromodulation is a good therapy choice for individuals with chronic pain. Our team of experts will evaluate each patient to determine if neuromodulation is the right therapy for them. We will also work with the patient's healthcare provider to ensure that the neuromodulation therapy is safe and effective.
In conclusion, neuromodulation is a rapidly growing field in the treatment of chronic pain. It offers a non-invasive and effective alternative to traditional therapies for individuals with chronic pain conditions that are not responding to traditional therapies. At Assessments Inc, we offer medical clearance to ensure that neuromodulation is a good therapy choice for individuals with chronic pain.
