- Peripheral Nerve Stimulator – Treats many types of pain with direct stimulation of the nerves transmitting pain signals. By altering the pain signal, PNS can markedly diminish pain and is effective in treating many types pain (including nerve and neuropathy pain; knee and shoulder arthritis pain; post-surgical low back pain; post-surgical knee pain; and, foot and ankle pain).
- Peripheral Nerve Block – When inflammation causes nerve pain, the pain signal can be alleviated by injecting steroids.
