Is SCS for Me?
If you suffer from chronic pain, a Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) System may be appropriate. SCS therapy is often considered when medications or surgery are not an option or when the side effects of your current therapy are impacting your quality of life.
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) is generally considered effective:
- If your pain is reduced by at least 50%
- If you are able to get back to your daily activities
- If your need for pain medication is reduced
- If you're able to relax and sleep better
The decision as to whether SCS will be effective for a patient depends on the nature of their spinal problem. As with any medical procedure, our team will carefully review the potential benefit for the individual patient and then discuss the patient's options.
